Pianoteq 5 d4 equivilant to in pianoteq 6

While there are various issues in different registers, I think the notes in exactly that range are the most problematic as far as a realistic piano tone goes, and yes, it sounds like an old-fashioned electronic imitation of a piano in that range. Yes! That's exactly the point I've tried to make a few times. Thank you guys for asking and for letting me express what I think. Again, to me, same as for many other people, Pianoteq is the best one for 'playability', the worst one for the 'sound'.

Overall there is no 'perfect' thing for me here, just something I can take and go on. My favorite sampled VST's are Galaxy Vintage D (and it is made after my favorite type of real grands, the ones from the golden era of piano recordings) and for specific situations I love to use the Imperfect Samples Fazioli. It may sound strange but I enjoy playing it but not listening afterwards. I said on some threads already that Pianoteq is the only one for me for everyday practice and for overall playing enjoyment. I just like the sound of sampled pianos much better for the final result for a paying job, no doubt. I do some freelance jobs from time to time and I never use Pianoteq for it. So the actual 'realness' of the real one would be the only positive point, if it make the other sampled piano VST's it is easier to answer. Also they are quite out of my toddy, Pete14ДЄctually I'm having a pretty hard time right now making a list of disadvantages while answering the exact question - what is better, a modest real piano or Pianoteq/controller. I'd really like to try and to compare to my PX-150 which I'm quite happy about. I have heard better from PT though, much live in a small town where I'm not able to check other piano mechanics, unfortunately. It sounds like a bit of joke to be honest.

Since (AFAIK) there is no recording of the same piece being played on that piano, I can't really be sure in all cases exactly what it is I'm responding to. I wonder if that MIDI file is available? I'd like to run the same file on something else and compare.Д®TA: Some of this could also be that maybe I just don't happen to like the characteristics of the particular Steinway they modeled. (Just based on this one demo track, admittedly.) There are some passages that sound good, but much of it just doesn't. Maybe it feels wonderfully responsive to play, but in just listening, IMO, this isn't even as good as some of my 'rompler' piano sounds to say nothing of VSTs. There's something about the envelope and the static nature of the decaying tone, which seems apparent in certain note ranges at certain velocities that sounds really fake to me. And then the 4 note ascending bass line that follows (at 1:23), I hate to say it, but that bit (among others) reminds me of an old 70s electric piano, like an RMI, particularly the 3rd-4th note sequence. Is anyone else bothered by the 'drone' that appears under the playing notes starting at 1:18? I'm not sure what it is, but something bugs me about it. A lot of it seems plunky, too percussive, and long sustains often sound unnatural (esp. The first few notes start very promising and I even thought 'am I really a hater, this sounds like the real thing' but right away the melodic line starts and I felt this typical metallic synthetic quality in the sustain. Yep, just opened the demo page and started listening to the first Steinway D demo: F.
