I found a toy white baby grand piano at the local thrift store. It might not be the most impressive musical instrument I've ever played, but I was able to turn it into some beautiful Ableton Live Instruments!
I sampled some notes on it, and while they have a nice bell-like tone, each note caused every other note to resonate. So I wound up taking it apart so I could isolate the individual notes while dampening the others
The result is 8 Ableton Live Instruments, each with 16 Macro Controls and 5 Macro Presets, for a total of 40 different sounds. There's also a 16 Macro Audio Effect Rack that is perfect for twinkly, sparkly effects.
