Audio Plugin Deals launches an exclusive freebie deal on DIONYSUS Acoustic Piano ($99.99 value), an acoustic grand piano sound library by Muze.
DIONYSUS Acoustic Piano is a massive 24.81 GB piano sound library for Native Instruments Kontakt. The instrument is based on 12,982 individual samples. It requires the full version of Kontakt and will only work for fifteen minutes in the free Kontakt Player plugin.\
See also: Free Kontakt Player LibrariesThe library features 55 sampled sound sources. These include a variety of keys, bells, electric pianos, mallets, and guitars. The star of the show, however, is the deeply sampled Bechstein D Grand piano.
The user can mix and match different sources to create new and unique instrument combinations. Use the layering engine to morph and blend multiple sound sources, then adjust the global envelope and FX settings to polish the sound on the output.
To simplify the layering process, the instrument also features an XY pad which lets you morph between different sounds without adjusting the faders manually.
DIONYSUS Acoustic Piano comes with a 10-channel mixer that lets you apply various effects and tonal adjustments to each sound source. There are twelve built-in effects in total, including compression, delay, reverb, EQ, modulation, and more.
Typically priced at $99, the DIONYSUS Acoustic Piano is available as a free download for a limited time only exclusively via Audio Plugin Deals. The free download offer ends on June 3rd, 2021.
Hear the instrument in action in the demo video embedded below.
To claim your free DIONYSUS Acoustic Piano, visit the product page on APD’s website, add it to your shopping cart, and complete the checkout process. A valid email address is required.
Also, keep in mind that you will need the full version of NI Kontakt (v5.8 or later) to run DIONYSUS Acoustic Piano in your DAW.
Audio Plugin Deals is running several sales at the moment, including special offers on PREPARATO Piano by Xperimenta Project and ARPOLOGY Cinematic Dimensions by Sample Logic.

onOkay, wasn’t Muze the plagiarist(or at least using ripped samples from other libraries) That used to be called Sonex. I remember KVR and VI-control forums warning me about this company. At least I have a week to seriously debate on whether getting this or not.
Numanoid
onCustomers are not dealing with Muze. The order and download is handled directly at Audio Plugins. So if one is trusting Audio Plugins, there is no problem.

onTwo big “hybrid” keys libraries for Kontakt in a week. Not bad :-)

onYou’ll see in the Audio Plugin’s advert description that the product is 24.5gb and contains 55 sources. Having downloaded this from Audio Plugins site using the link they provide with the order, the product appears to be 6GB (9GB when uncompressed) and contains only 2 piano instruments. Still they are nice but seems a bit misleading when the expectation is 55 sound sources. Just wondering if anyone has managed to get the full 25GB worth
rex roll
on55 sound resources means in hybird mode you can mix other sounds,check the video you will know how to use it
Tomislav Zlatic
onThanks for the clarification!
Numanoid
on24.5 GB is the size of the original WAV material, this has been compressed in NCW format to 9GB
People seems to think that the bigger the files the better, that is probably why they advertise it at 24.5 GB. A lot of vendors do this.
Tomislav Zlatic
onHey Numanoid, yeah that makes sense. The NCW format compresses the source samples quite a bit. Thanks for the clarification.

onIt is the fully functional demo and not the full product! But it is free…
Michael
onYes the website is misleading with what you get. Hard to complain when free but I was still a bit disappointed
Amogus
onWhen the piano is sus!

onCan’t see 55 sounds but mine has the full functionality as shown on the Muze site demo video
I downloaded all of the string and brass demos a couple of weeks ago (very nice), you can tell these are demo versions as they only have 1 mic setting available, the Dionysus is the full thing
I counted 15 sounds for each of the 3 additional sound sources plus the piano and 10 mic positions plus effects
Perhaps 3×15+10 Mic sounds =55
Can’t complain for that and it sounds pretty good
The other demos on the Muze site are worth a download of you want some nice basic free string, woodwind and brass instruments forKontakt
