ReviewsExcellent 'go -to' Grand Piano
by Paul Kelner from Mansfield, Ohio
I have a home based PTLE 7.4 studio running on an iMAC. I am first and foremost a keyboard / piano player. I currently have Reason 4.0, and I have their Reason Pianos refill. I also have MOTU Mach ... read more [+]5....which also has an excellent German grand piano patch. I have to say, that my 'go - to' grand piano patch is a personally modified version of the Synthogy Italian Grand Piano. I like the brighter 'rock or pop' settings....and I have EQ'ed the bass register up a little. The harmonics and samples that make up this patch are amazing. I can play soft and hear all of the nuances, or I can bang on the keys and get that forte sound that I love. All in all, this is a great grand piano patch, and at under two hundred dollars...it is a steal... close [-]

by Dave from Orem
I agree somewhat with the other reviewer here. I also chose this piano because the demos sounded absolutely fantastic. However, After putting it through it's paces, I'm not quite as impressed. July 8, 2009 Music Background: Recording Engineer, Producer, Studio Owner. ... read more [+]/> The midrange is not as good as I had hoped for. I have found a few notes that don't sustain that long in the sample and you can hear the fade out on the sample. I also have a hard time getting it to sound as real as I wish. I have recordings of real pianos that I also use and the real piano always sounds much much better. I usually pull it up and then tweak a lot to try to get it to sound the way that I want. While working with a client, I also came across a note that had a very offensive overtone. It was so obnoxious and difficult to avoid that we ended up having to pull out Italian Grand Completely. On the good side, the Bass is fantastic! If you need some deep piano tones, this is the sampler for you. I have yet to hear bass tones as rich as these are. I also absolutely love the pads that can play behind the piano. I am always looking for pads this great and they always seem difficult to find. I could definitely see myself using this sampler for just the gorgeous pads. The piano sounds great in the pads. So overall, I am not overly impressed. I am still searching for my next go to piano sampler, but if you need rich bass tones on a piano, you can't beat this. close [-] weak mid-range
