Impact Soundworks Curio: Cinematic Toy Piano is a unique virtual instrument that transforms the delicate sound of a miniature toy piano into a versatile cinematic tool. Captured with meticulous detail, Curio offers a rich palette of tonal and atonal textures, perfect for film, TV, and game scoring.

The samples are processed through magnetic tape and outboard effects to create an ethereal, immersive soundscape. This instrument features over 1,400 samples including deep-sampled mallets, plucks, bowed ambiances, tapping, shaking textures, and both natural and heavily processed percussive hits. It also includes tonal and atonal sweeps, deep bass plucks, FX, and hybrid airy and synthesized chromatic sounds.

Curio's beautifully scripted interface provides seven MIDI-controllable effects and processors, a multi-mode filter and envelope, an easy 3-band EQ for quick shaping, tempo-synced delay tap, and spatial and modulation effects to sculpt your sound precisely.

This instrument captures the intimate nuances of a miniature grand piano, recorded naturally then prepared, deconstructed, and creatively mangled with both acoustic and electronic sound design techniques, resulting in a cinematic sound library that is both organic and otherworldly.
