Ravenscroft 275 educational discount8/11/2023 I leave you with this recording for classical, do you like it ? If so, it is probably for you because the virtual version sounds very similar. ![]() While it has a very clear sound it also has a metallic twang and coldness I never liked so much that comes through in that recording. I found a negative timbre shift helps somewhat, it is very configurable. I've been using Pianoteq since purchasing a boxed version of V.1.5 many years ago, have regularly bought updates since then, and have been on several beta testing teams, as well as contributing demos for the Steingraeber, Steinway B & Ant. Petrof models, so I know it well.Įach update brings the sound closer to an acoustic piano. The playability, response, pedalling behaviour is as close as you get to the real thing in the virtual piano world at present. Low memory footprint & CPU overhead are another positive. There are differing views on the realism of the Pianoteq pianos, and I partly agree with some of the criticism that all the models at default settings have a sameness to the tone, and a slight artificial/plastic quality. To overcome this I recommend adjusting the condition slider to around 15-20. It adds some 'imperfect' qualities to the tone which help with authenticity of tone. Spend time finding the optimum velocity setting to match your keyboard.
