Personal Review
When I first tried the Intimate Grand Piano, I was blown away by the quality. It genuinely feels like a premium library, with a depth of character that many paid libraries struggle to achieve. The “Subdued” and “Soft Drama” presets, in particular, really shine—ideal for creating moody, introspective tracks. LABS continues to impress with their free offerings, providing tools that sound professional yet accessible to everyone.
