Members jeffdo Posted June 17, 2005 Members Share Posted June 17, 2005 Hey peeps - I just got into the modern age of music with Cubase. It's pretty amazing what you can do with a laptop and a minimal amount of new hardware. My question is this: I have an old Nanopiano I used to use with my keyboard. Is it worthwhile to keep this thing or should I go with some sound module software? I'm not really gigging with this thing, just using it for home studio stuff. But it seems like these things are holding their value somewhat (saw one on eBay go for 180). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members C. Martin Posted June 17, 2005 Members Share Posted June 17, 2005 Are you looking for a module that is dedicated to Piano? Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jeffdo Posted June 17, 2005 Author Members Share Posted June 17, 2005 Piano, e-piano, organ I'd say is about the range of it. I guess I wouldn't mind having more sounds if it didn't cost too much more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has very good Piano samples, strings, synths, etc. It may be on the expensive side, but it does sound great. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members program_insect Posted June 17, 2005 Members Share Posted June 17, 2005 To answer the other part of your question, I'd say it's definitely worth having a dedicated sound source...sometimes you just want to play, and not worry about having your computer on, the plugin loaded, etc. I know what a hassle this can be since that's how I'm set up right now.
