As for the marriage with a more electronic environment, too, brings the Pianoteq own living next to the "real" instruments. Although the two musical contexts are different (against Soul jazz / classical), but to choose, especially when it comes to marry a virtual piano with real acoustic elements, the Pianoteq is needed undoubtedly. To complete the proof by experience no comparison between the two in studio version: The registered last year on a project NS2 Soul sounds nonetheless digital, where Pianoteq recently placed on the soundtrack of a short film is completely illusion. In short, once all the settings adjusted to my way, I get a sound quality and playability well above the Pianoteq, despite the recognized qualities of excellent NS2. And there is the great advantage of the latter, since everything is adjustable, the length of the string to the position of striking point and volume of hammers, as the resonance of the soundboard, much better on the plugin. Realism that I could find on Pianoteq, including through Damper settings and positioning of microphones. I still tried to get "closer" to the NS2 several levels being used on some concerts practicing Yamaha C3/C7 or Steinway Model D, with quite reactive dampers, I particularly like the ability to disable the long release of NS2, which I think brings a lot of realism and sound game (others say the same thing "with" !). However, taking the time to compare two equal volumes ( NS2 Steinway D Close Pianoteq against D4 Jazz AB without reverb), I finally looked for Pianoteq. It always takes time to adjust when going from a very clean Pianoteq sampled piano because the sound, the atmosphere can be confusing in this regard. Purchased from the first version via the group buy launch, I come back happily on Pianoteq 4.5, after a break of 18 months hardware via the Nord Stage 2 for live AND studio.

+ 1 for Roland + you don't spend time to tweak.Īll in all, if you like the sound of the Roland, go for itĭigital Pianos - Electronic Pianos - Synths &a. subjective, +1 for Pianoteqĥ° Easy of use. You loose the spacial possibilities of the piano.Ĥ° With headphones. By using an external source, you just use a stereo audio in. Probably +1 for the Roland: there is at least a little work made by them to tune their sound system to their sound. But Roland not bad at all.ģ° Sound system. Now, on the newer Roland models, there are note by note editing functions that could help for that. Fora example, the notes D1 and D2 sound loud and too bassy on my Roland without the possibility to correct that. + Pianoteq is abyssal when it come to soundtweaking.

+1 for the Pianoteq for the fact that I have 5 models of it and I can change my sound before I get borred. +1 for the Roland, because even at 64 samples of latency setting, I feel the Roland more connected with the sound, but Pianoteq not bad at all (fully playable)Ģ° The sound. I use that kind of setting with my Roland HP-507.ġ° The connection.

I am wondering how something like Kawai CN35 (or also Kawai CE220) + Pianoteq 5 (routing the sound back through the DP speakers via Line-in) would compare to a Roland HP 605/603.
