Ravenscroft 275 Piano

Sound is exciting. Very natural release of staccato notes with bright string resonance. Also there is a very rare effect in ios pianos apps: when you keep one key pressed and play same note in upper or lower octave, you can hear vibrations of note touched before. Also there is very nice behavior of sustain pedal: if you shortly release and push back pedal you’ll get effect of half pressing pedal of real piano, when strings are just partially damped. But why is there only 256 samples option in audio buffer size setup? To lower buffer size I should first open another app supporting such values (e.g. AUM) and then launch Ravenscroft. It’s quiet annoying. I think playing experience with 64 samples buffer is much better. Why can’t you implement this feature?

Very natural release of staccato notes with bright string resonance. Also there is very rare in ios pianos apps effect when you touch key with lowest velocity it not produces sound (like in a real piano). And if this key keeps pressed while you play same note in upper or lower oktave you can hear vibrations of note touched before.

Best piano app for iPad!

Great work great app great sound 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Thank you so much for this brilliant product. The only thing I would like to ask is this: please give the user the opportunity to switch the sound of a sustain pedal off.

This app use virtual control knobs. They are very very difficult to adjust up or down, and a couple refuse to go up much or down much. I have tried so many times and ways, and have been patient, but the developer has been inconsiderate enough to make this app extremely difficult to use. Other apps uses sliding controls, but i guess the esthetics of the look the developer wanted to achieve outweighed making it convenient for the paying user to actually use the app.

I’ve been using 275 for about 4-5 years on my 2nd gen ipad pro. It sounds decent at 1024 samples, but it really starts to shine at 2048 and above. However, on my 2nd gen iPad pro, the latency at 2048 (42.7ms) and 4096 (85.3ms) was unacceptable. Recently, I upgraded to a ipad pro 6th gen, which should be 4-6 times faster than the 2nd gen, but the latency times are exactly the same. This is disappointing since Ravenscroft is the primary instrument I use with my midi keyboard.

A metallic high pitched sustain release sample over (at least) middle two octaves. Would like a refund, but prefer they take my money and hire beta testers. Purchased around cyber Monday 2023. iPad Pro 4th edition iOS 15.6

This app is my go to for a specific piano sound I really enjoy when I’m using GarageBand but now it crashes a lot and every time I try to export the audio recorded using this app from GarageBand, there is no sound. Empty. I will still give it five stars but please I hope you see this and try to update it ASAP, since it hasn’t been updated in 11 month now 🥴

I am not a pianist yet, I am a student. I bought this mostly so I could practice hand exercises, scales, and chords on my ipad, while I am traveling and away from my real piano. I tried many apps and this one has the best sound quality and adjustable on screen keyboard size. It allows me to replicate the keyboard size closest to a real keyboard with slight adjustments for the range I need to play for the given exercise or scale, while confined to the dimensions of the 12.9 inch iPad screen. It does not have a lot of bells and whistles, but it does what I need it to do.
