Members evildragon Posted June 18, 2011 Author Members Share Posted June 18, 2011 But please - stop these silly comparisons with products you have never ever played for yourself. Prejudice much? Yes, I did play a V-Piano, and as stated, was underwhelmed for the price, starting from that awful (to me, YMMV and all that) keybed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Etienne Rambert Posted June 18, 2011 Members Share Posted June 18, 2011 The Kawai K1 is an old rompler from the dinosaur years of romplers.... I'm not talking about Kawais real pianos.... I love my K1's buddy. I have 3 of 'em. Every piece of music I compose has a K1 string pad on it. But the K1 piano made a Korg M1 piano patch sound like a Bosendorfer. But when people reference the venerable Kawai K1, a certain amount of veneration is called for. We are talking true 8 bit glory here. None of that contemporary bulls*it.

Members Thorhead Posted June 23, 2011 Members Share Posted June 23, 2011 Well it sounds good to me... This the new version? Still I would have liked him to hit the same note couple times loud with the pedal on and see if the kinda metallic noises come out like in real grand. We need a real comparison between the V and Pianoteq. Never played the V as I am not 5K interested in an electronic piano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Dr.Wu Posted June 23, 2011 Members Share Posted June 23, 2011 how someone can post such a crappy sounding video with means to promote a product is beyond me.I have Pianoteq and i am sure they will continue to improve it to a point where it really rivals all other samplebased emulations not only in playability but also in tone etc but distorted demos certainly dont help convincing any potential buyers.

Members evildragon Posted June 23, 2011 Author Members Share Posted June 23, 2011 I agree with that. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mate_stubb Posted June 23, 2011 Members Share Posted June 23, 2011 I have been having a good bit of fun blending TruePianos with Pianoteq. Try cranking up the string resonance on PT and lowering it in the mix a bit, to where you can hear the woodiness of the TP sample but with the resonance and connectedness of PT.

Members pogo97 Posted June 23, 2011 Members Share Posted June 23, 2011 Neat idea. Does TruePianos give you some choices of temperament? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mate_stubb Posted June 23, 2011 Members Share Posted June 23, 2011 I'm not sure - I am running the cut down version that comes in Sonar X1. Others have been trying this experiment with Ivory or whatever their favorite sampled piano set is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr.Wu Posted June 23, 2011 Members Share Posted June 23, 2011 i also stack Pianoteq with sample libs like imperfect samples fazioli and Steinway or Ivory-the tuning is a bit tricky at times but i get some really nice textures that way.

Members mate_stubb Posted June 24, 2011 Members Share Posted June 24, 2011 I seem to avoid phasing and tuning issues by having Pianoteq lower in the mix - the resonance is just about all you hear from PT due to its being cranked up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
