both are very 'soft' sounding instruments. I just happened to have recently recorded two Pleyel pianoforte's, one from 1831, the other from 1834 and I would claim the opposite. If any of you experienced folks have any thoughts along these lines, this rookie would be grateful to hear them! is it as good as the best of any pianos out there, including large sampled libraries? Is it as good as a well-recorded live piano? But all this got me thinking a bit about the 'detail up top' of Pianoteq 5. I do understand that Greg Well's comments didn't address modelled pianos. whether the Pianoteq 5's strength not necessarily in top end detail? A comparison of the Pianoteq 5 with one of the large sampled library pianos may help answer that, but I don't have access to any of those. I'm interested whether the S90ES is punching above its weight in terms of 'detail up top' as Greg Wells puts it, compared to the Pianoteq 5, vs. I expected to see a lot more harmonic signal higher than the 4-5kHz I saw in the S90ES patch, but actually the upper limit of signal was about the same!

I decided to run the same comparison (D4 Blues, I believe is the patch name), and was very surprised. Soon thereafter I bought Pianoteq 5, and am very happy with the sound (I have Stage at the moment).

I did a quick test of the S90ES, playing rhythmic chords mainly in the mid to lower octaves (120 Hz to 500 Hz, approximately, two octaves around middle C), and noted that there wasn't much harmonic signal above 4-5 kHz. If it's a great sounding sample, the pianocentric should perform beautifully with it.' Some sampled pianos don't have a lot of detail way up top, a bit flat and rolled off sounding, so turning the pianocentric knob to the right won't be as effective. 'The better sounding the original source is, the better result you'll get from additional processing. Wells if he thought his PianoCentric would be helpful on the S90ES, and he replied as below: As it was a piano bundled in a DAW, I assumed it might be less than great-sounding (it's the only one I'd ever known for years), so I asked Mr. I also loved as the other banks (electric piano, clavinet, vibraphone, celesta, marimba, etc.) and therefore difficult to choose the two banks choose to buy (I still took 2 piano D4 K2 and basic).įor the consolidated CPU, I have not tried with an old computer, or on projects loaded but with my i7 quad core (macmini 2012) no problem (buffer 128 or 256 samples / Fs 44.1 kHz).Hi - I bought PianoCentric, a Waves plug-in by Greg Wells, sometime before I bought Pianoteq 5, when I was using Cubase's Halion Sonic S90ES VST patch. The icing on the cake because it is the function I'm looking for years and only 1 synth in the world (Ensoniq) moved record MIDI in background. Ca not look but it is controllable via MMC (or any MIDI controller via MIDI Learn), but mostly it records all incoming MIDI sequences in history (with the possibility to save MIDI file). The killer feature: the ability to age any model piano (Mint = fresh as a roach = Worn threadbare)Īs a bonus, the standalone version, a small MIDI recorder. The Stage version is affordable but is not a cheap version already delight many musicians (who are not necessarily technician / piano maker).

(1% is in quibble on the middle octave pedal off only in that on or simple staccato chords which sometimes sound a little harpsichord (ie plucked rather than struck strings), musicality and dynamic (not only testing the demos I have a good answer 10aine ideas): this is not an ordinary piano simulation but a real musical instrument.įor features, everything is super well thought out (except maybe the choice of some keyboard shortcuts to switch banks or presets): MIDI Learn, management optional banks (installation, can hide the demos), integrated effects quality tweaking of any kind (for normal versions, but also for the Pro Training Version), numerous and functional factory preset. Sound quality that now competes with sample banks already (I EW QL Pianos bank which still 175Go!), I tested the previous versions and I had not been totally convinced, musicality the quality of banks (not just acoustic piano) and features (see below) eventually seduce me.Īlthough still qq micro details that are not totally jokingly say that for me it verges on 99% of realism. Not a single bug (actually, there was one in which the AU version does not work internship with VEP5, and I have not even had time noticing that it was already set to 5.0.1 Bravo. This plugin is excellent, almost flawless. I tried this v5 this week and I fell for the Internship release.
