John Legend’s Ordinary People Piano captures the warmth and character of his iconic grand piano, Splice recorded and mixed to echo the sound world of Get Lifted. Using the same studio approach—classic mics, vintage desk, and mix chain—to recreate the soulful tone of one of his most iconic performances. This is the sound of John Legend. Perfect for pop, soul, R&B, and heartfelt ballads, the instrument includes five presets—Ultra Close, Pop Close, Ribbon Mics, Room Mics, and Ordinary People Piano—so you can shape it to your own production and nail the signature sound.
