The Basilica Pianos

     The Basilica Pianos is a high quality, but affordable sample library bundle, that features both a grand piano and an upright piano, painstakingly sampled by hand. This bundle also includes separate effects samples, such as scrapes and strums on the grand piano, as well as a palm muted upright piano. Since its release in 2018,  The Basilica Pianos has been used and enjoyed by professional musicians and amateurs alike, with some describing the library as "a hidden gem".
