You may have listened to or Phil Best or the many demos here on PTQ website and they all sound much better (with the same computer and speakers) than your playing. I believe you'd get more answers if you make a separate thread for this topic, but anyway, here's my take.Īfter struggling a lot with this myself, without finding a solution yet, I realized what the issue is. In my ears the VSL sounds more natural and has more body to it.

Any tricks how to achieve this? I have no knowledge about correct EQ settings etc.

I've been playing with PT7 the whole day and I can't seem to get the depth and warm deep sound the VSL makes. Even so it makes me wonder if some people are hearing Laurel, while others are hearing Yanny. Sure seems odd, but some people agreed with this poster though (then again maybe folks will agree with just about any attack on something they don't understand or do not appreciate?). One bizarre comparison in the YT comments section had someone arguing that Pianoteq actually sounded (to them) more like a plucked instrument rather than a hammered one! It's got to a point where the differences are more about elusive presentational minutiae rather than degrees of realism. To my ears both Pianoteq and those Synchron pianos sound like real pianos most of the time - or at least real enough compared to the recorded experience from a stereo playback perspective. I think that the Synchron sampled Hamburg Steinway sounds good, but not necessarily superior to Pianoteq, and the sound produced by Pianoteq is much more adjustable than that of samples (without degrading the quality of the samples themselves by means of effect processing). That sample library may see the odd bug correction, otherwise as a product it's pretty much set in stone.

However because Pianoteq is a software synthesizer it can be upgraded at any time. In terms of expressivity or playability with that no compromise approach to sampling I imagine it gives an extremely similar experience to a good modelled piano like Pianoteq, unlike the typical sampled pianos I have experienced, but I could be wrong.īoth taken in isolation are clearly good enough to fool plenty of people's ears that they are real piano, much of the time. It takes minutes to load a piano instance! So Synchron Piano library is OTT but nonetheless impressive. VSL Synchron has a massive amount of velocity layers (and 4000+ samples per key apparently), it's a library measured in terabytes, Pianoteq is measured in mere megabytes! Standard is much more flexible than the Synchron Piano library, so that's not an issue here. Listening to these Synchron Pianos to me is like looking at an impressive dinosaur.

Pianoteq is on the cutting edge and is vastly more flexible in Standard and Pro than anything out there that is sample based. To me modelling is the logical successor to samples, and as processing power increases and techniques improve this will become ever more apparent. I also prefer modelled instruments to samples.

People probably should go with what they like and enjoy. Well, sampled is sampled and modelled is modelled. And I can see that 2) Mint is not used, 3) the velocitycurve is not calibrated to the keyboard….one can get more strength, power, effectiveness - oomph and warmth in Ptq, if needed. I can see on screen that - why is he using Standard? It should be 1) Pro in this test, which gives so much more control of settings. In my opinion he talks about the posiibilities. When testing, one can get different results depending on how one use the instrument. But they are two completely different systems so it is clear that they sound different. If that's not covering all your generic cinematic sounds you could add another "me too" cookie cutter product (at the other end of the energy spectrum).Interesting with tests, and the development is constantly progressing, both with sampling and modeling.

I could download it over a couple of nights but I don't need more like that. However for Kontakt users without those options (who like their refined piano pads made for them) it looks good, and at 1.1GB download not painfully large for a sample library I suppose. Obviously I have Una Corda in K11 and Pianoteq and multiple delay FX. A very well designed cheap and affordable alternative to Una Corda for that soft cinematic/TV wistful drama sound. The Woodchester demonstrations sound good. No problem that's a very different animal. Then there are popular 'diversions' like NI_Una Corda, and very recently this Woodchester Piano … getting incredible reactions on VI-Control Forum (~ $54. really understand the 'large-content' piano library issue. Heh heh !! Will definitely check this out.
