Impeccable, Ultra-tweakable Virtual Pianos
MODARTT's Pianoteq 6 improves upon its forebear with overhauled instrument models, improved MIDI auto-recording and MIDI Mapping, a chord detector, VST3 support, and more. Like Pianoteq Standard, Pianoteq 6 PRO provides robust sound-sculpting tools. This fuller-featured version takes it a step further, however, with 30 adjustable parameters for each note on the keyboard and support for up to 192kHz audio. Use its powerful Note Edit feature to adjust physical parameters for specific ranges, or note-by-note. Create advanced keyboard splits to lay down multi-instrument parts. MODARTT Pianoteq 6 PRO is ideal for professional studios and composers who work on a range of demanding projects.
Four instrument packs are included with your purchase of Pianoteq 6 PRO (you select these during registration). Your choices are: Steinway D + K2 grand pianos, or Electric pianos + Hohner Collection, or Vibes + Xylophone/Marimba.

Virtually brings the piano to life under your fingertips
What's amazing about MODARTT Pianoteq 6 is its realism. Strike a key on your MIDI controller and it's as though there's a piano there that you can reach out and touch. That's because MODARTT's Pianoteq 6 creates the sound of the piano in real time, taking into account all of the complex factors that make the piano so vivid. You'll hear the interaction between the strings, the use of pedals, the cabinet resonance, and the position of the hammers. From the weakest pianissimo to the strongest fortissimo, what you express on the keyboard will sound pure and natural through Pianoteq 6.
Refined physical modeling brings you a selection of stunning pianos
From Pianoteq's initial 2006 release, MODARTT has continued to develop their physical models for each major version. Version 6 is no exception — all 49 of its physically modeled instruments have been completely overhauled. And the industry has taken notice! In fact, the upgraded sound quality impressed Steinway & Sons so much that they gave MODARTT's Steinway Model D and Model B models their official stamp of approval. Thanks to the true-to-life sound of these models, you can inject your recordings with the sonic signature of the world's most famous pianos.
Get inside your own piano workshop and create your dream piano sound
The many adjustable parameters in Pianoteq 6 make it possible to not only adapt the existing adapted piano model, but also to create new piano sounds. This is one of the advantages of a truly modeled piano — it opens up new possibilities for the creative musician. Go ahead and adjust everything from hammer hardness to string tuning and temperament to reverb, resonance, brilliance, timbre, and far beyond. On top of that, the PRO version provides you with thousands of editable overtones and note-per-note editing.
