    Garritan Authorized Steinway Virtual Concert Grand Piano - Basic EditionPublished on 05/26/10 at 04:37

    For how long have you been using it?

    I use it for about 3 weeks.
    I buy by reading reviews on Audiofanzine basic and pro.

    Did you try many other models before getting this one?

    True pianos, very good, but it is still quite realistic in my ear, I look really hyper realistic.

    What thing do you like most/least about it?

    In game one:

    I find Garritan Steinway soft, lifeless, no dynamics, too low in glonflé, it sounds "plastic". the only realistic sensation is the noise of the dampers that open when you press the sustain pedal.

    I played several hours now, thinking "me do", but there is no way I violent my master keyboard to try to get some momentum, I triturated velocity, tried diff…

    I played several hours now, thinking "me do", but there is no way I violent my master keyboard to try to get some momentum, I triturated velocity, tried different curves, anything done.

    In a mix

    It fits very well with cons in a mix, but it, true pianos are already doing very well, but when it ensures even when very well in that role

    I just tested the demo of personal k-sounds piano, it's killing in terms of realism in single-player game. there, we totally believe it, everything is there, sensitivity, dynamics, balance, it seems to be on a real grand piano! For a hundred euros, I disgusted not to have discovered earlier!

    I'm not a billionaire, so he'll have to wait for the blow that I can afford it.

    What is your opinion about the value for the price?

    Bof bof, it does not match what I expected, I was looking for a piano playing a piano has not integrate into the mix.
    Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...

    No, because I wanted to play a piano solo, not to integrate in a mix.

    I also purchased Garritan Jazz Big Band is about the same, sounds are played only unconvincing, but cons of the killing in a mix.

    I will try to resell my license who knows, it will help me to buy one from K-sounds.

    The best value for money

    For how long have you been using it?
    + A year.

    For how long have you been using it?
    No but I researched, listened to samples and compared

    What thing do you like most/least about it?
    Most: sound quality despite its small bank. There is only one piano sound possible, it is far from its huge banks of race condition, but that's what I liked. The sound is good, it's not filled the hard drive, a few possible settings, and simple class, it's not for nothing that Steinway has placed its logo on it ...

    Minimum: the upgrade can not yet

    What is your opinion about the value for the price?
    There's nothing better.

    Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?

    I bought Pianoteq, and I use it occasionally. TruePiano I tried, I also bought and BlackGrand WhiteGrand of Sampletek. I tried the Akoustik Piano Native.

    All these pianos at once charmed me, and disappointed because there was always something that was wrong.

    Here, without any adjustment, I get a piano that I like the bass to treble. I found a sound identical to the albums I listen to, it's very pleasant.

    Note that I am an amateur who only plays a half-hour a day. I use this piano for playing jazz or classical, solo then. It is a true happiness, and suddenly, I tend to play more.

    My old Pentium IV is just fine, I still put the samples on a dedicated disk.

    I would add that for the price ($ 99 Basic version), there is nothing wrong. This gives life to my piano Clavinova CLP-170, and it keeps me from buying a digital piano, which provides for much much less expensive.

    Thank you to move to the previous opinion that pushed me to buy the product.

    PS: Product Activation is very simple, even if your computer is not online (which was not clearly explained to the purchase, that's why I say this here).
