The sound, playability, ringing out of notes, resonance, pedal sounds, damper/hammer sounds are all there.and it's hella bright and cuts through a mix extremely nice. Downside, MASSIVE library that uses disk streaming, and quite a resource hog if your operating on an average system, your bound to have problems. The Grand 3 - In the price range, to me.the most realistic sounding virtual piano out there. The price is pretty good, but for what it costs, I think I'd choose The Grand 3 over Ivory all day. Ivory - Very realistic, but too dark for me. TruePianos - I wish I could give an adequate review of this, but have had nothing but compatibility problems with the demo they offer.the demo's on their page sound pretty good, but haven't had the chance to actually play this one.It is however very affordable, so hard to lose on this one. Pianissimo - Too clunky and fake sounding for me, they integrated pedal noise and damper/hammer sounds.but you can hear where the sound sample 's also a bit 'gloomy' or jangly with too much low end for my taste. One fatal flaw I noticed with this one, is when you start tweaking, due to the fact that this is a virtually emulated plug-in.if you listen really close, you can hear various other instruments they used to achieve the sound.(vibraphones and things of that nature) but overall, this is a great sounding plug if you don't tweak the presets TOO much.I find that the close mic'd C3 with moderate tweaks sounds amazing. The tweaks on hammer action, string length, pedal noise etc etc are exceptional. Pianoteq - At first I was quite flabergasted at the attention to detail the folks at pianoteq implemented into this VSTi.especially for a non-sample based plug.

Ahh, fugheddabowdid.Ĭreamwares rusty old GSIF 1.0 drivers work flawlessley live w/ SFP.I think Mini Grand sounds good UNTILL, you stack it up against some of the other piano plugs out there.I've tried just about all of them in a quest to make my purchasing decision. I always have these players that use the worst gear live, while claiming their ' awesome rig ' is in the studio, come up to me and ask how it sounds, I use to tell the truth, but have learned to lie like a booking agent, and simply reply.GGRRREEEEAAAAATTTTTT !!!!!!! It is my imatation of my childhood ceral beast called ' Tony The Tiger '. Sorry, live gigging in Vegas causes this outburst.

Other than that, they sound GGRRREEEEAAAAATTTTTT !!! Yeah.right. Their velocity response is nill, their sound is passable at best, the fff samples are so annoying. The stock Tascam GigaPianos I refuse to use. Vintaudio's Yamaha Grand is lovely, and his Upright Clinton, and his Upright Boston Steinway. You must pick the sampled piano yourself, then add the resonant body impulses. But I can tell you that GS3 Orchestra, and it's VST counterpart GVI are the only means to achieve this kind of realism. I can't tell you which piano is the best 4 you, only you know that. I shall let GaryB tell you next week as he is visiting again for more new stuff to add in DAW world. My Taj Mahal impulse makes me feel that I am sitting up in a balcony watching myself play. And it sounds like a grand on whatever stage you want it to. Now I can play it w/o fatigue over, and over. On my real Grand ( Baldwin ) I have always felt the strain from the beginning of the piece, if it's played at the correct tempo.

allows me to play the whole piece w/o fatigue. I have a generic one that covers most gigs. My MC3000 controller has a huge memory capacity, and stores velocity mappings for each composition.

When depressing the sustain pedal, it models the resonance and string to string vibrations w/ harmonics, and gives you an incredible rush as it's realism seems to force you to practice. The mediocre ' GigaPiano II ' was a great way to demo the abilities of these fabulous ideas, but once I added my various pianos, and applied the Pedal up, and down reverb / mic models, I played until I passed out.

When Gigastudio 3 Orchestra w/ GigaPulse Pro Convolution Reverb / Mic Modeller came out, I was floored. I have played every library that came out, and VST and still was silently awaiting 4 someone to get it close enough to use as a solo, or live instrument. Emulators had no pianos whatsoever, and the only decent piano emu I heard was Ensoniq's w/ the JC 8MB piano ROM. The latter had it's own sound, but worked in R & Roll O.K. I thought the best sounding piano I played was the Helpinstill Upright, then the Yamaha cp88. Well I can only say that I have played classical piano competitions from the age of 6 till my Conservatory days in St.Louis.
