Expansion Pack adds a fourth Grand Piano to Ivory™

(January 18, 2006) — Synthogy is pleased to announce the release of its much anticipated Italian Grand Expansion Pack for Ivory™, featuring a magnificent Italian 10 foot concert grand. The all-new sample set installs directly into Ivory, adding over 2,000 samples or 19 GB to Ivory’s award-winning repertoire of pianos.

Synthogy co-founder and project producer Joe Ierardi remarks, “The Italian Grand is a rare instrument in a class of its own and was a pleasure to record for Ivory. The remarkable craftsmanship that went into this piano makes it a truly marvelous instrument to play, with a sound and a voice that is completely unique. It brings yet another new dimension to Ivory, and further realizes our goal of recreating the world’s greatest pianos. We’re thrilled to be able to offer the Italian Grand to so many of our customers who have requested it.”

The Italian Grand Expansion Pack is offered as a separate add-on volume that requires the installation of Ivory 1.5, providing a new set of programs and key-sets that will appear within the Ivory user interface. It ships on DVD in RTAS format (Mac/PC) and retails for $139.

Also, Synthogy announces the release of Universal Binary support for RTAS, and direct support for Pro Tools® 7.3. All updates are currently available free of charge from Synthogy’s website at www.synthogy.com.

Ivory and the Italian Grand Expansion Pack are distributed in North America by ILIO, carrying the highest quality virtual instruments, sample libraries, and creative tools for professional musicians.
