Expressive piano and acoustic drum banks

The piano now uses 92 original Meta Piano recordings: 23 pitches with four recorded playing strengths and smooth velocity transitions. The kick and closed hi-hat each use four recorded dynamics and four alternate takes from Virtuosity Drums; the snare uses 12 recorded dynamics. These are CC0 recordings by Meta Platforms, Inc., Versilian Studios, and Karoryfer Samples (Austin McMahon, drums). The original recordings and their relative levels are preserved.
