Any genre any instrument Ruben can make it sing !!
Nice video!!
Pianoteq 8 is SO expressive!! And truly sounds so real (as in 'recorded' pianos), there is little else a musician/player might need to compose or perform. It's likely not THE only piano library a musician may ever 'want', but it (pro-version) would be MY piano program or sole instrument, if I could only have 'one'.
Physical modelling has achieved an unprecedented level of detail that gets better with each version of Pianoteq, as it does not rely on and is therefore not limited by the amount of samples. There are no dynamic layers in the classical sense and therefore smoothness of dynamic play is only dependent on the keyboard and the player.
The modification possibilities are endless and once you have internalised how to achieve which sound, you can delete all piano libraries from your computer, because Pianoteq can do everything. It even goes so far that you can create almost all sound qualities and colours with only one piano. Sample libraries can pack up.
Ruben, your playing and compositions are great!
I’m curious if you’ve released albums. If so please leave a link!
I am really torn between this and Keyscape... Both sound great but the dynamics better on Pianoteq but Keyscape does sound better....
Can I use pianoteq with casio ap710
I could listen to you play all day great demo
Thank you so much!
The sound quality of my Pianoteq isn't as good as expected. what cound be the problem?
2:26 - actually, pteq is a real piano. Digital and acoustic pianos are both real pianos. That's why we call them pianos. They're pianos. Real pianos. That's when pteq is hooked up to a key-board and pedals etc. What you actually meant is - pteq is not an 'acoustic' piano.
Great demo! Ah I wish I picked this up last week when it was on sale 25% off... Black Friday is dangerous for my bank account... :O
You have provided the most beautiful and generous presentation of this magnificent instrument . This is exactly what I’m looking for.
I assume this is the Pro Piano 8 version? And how many of these packets come with that version? Do I need the Bundle, or will the Pro package provide all heard here.
Beautiful musicianship by the way . A true artist you are!

Looking for the additional guitar review you mentioned?
This is so real. Enjoyed the Sound and The Playing.
I believe on you, so I am waiting your Guitar video.
As soon as possible, to buy a guitar.
I recommend cranking up the hammer noise and sympathetic resonance and it will sound even more incredible!!!
Thank you. I bought the Stage version on their black friday sale but after watching this I might upgrade to standard or pro to get the additional customization options.
I am looking forward to your review of their classical guitar.
Harpsichord sounds terrible.
Why does the pianotek works with 4 pedals ?
It's very very good. Years from now, we'll look back and say "We thought it was the end-all, be-all. How naive we were!" I mean, I find it truly inspiring, but how can people honestly claim it's "just like a real grand"? Every once and again, I'll hit a note that makes me go "oooops", 'cause it sounds like a 1980s synth has snuck into my Blüthner.
It certainly sounds beautiful under your hands!
Man I came looking for an Equalizer Software for my P45 but THIS! This is like ordering a scotch and receiving a Diamond Crystal Gold Plated Tumbler with it for free
Edit: Okay not actually free but the price is fully reasonable
Simply the best...I love it. Thank you for going thru this tutorial step by step. One question: I have the PRO version but don't seem to find the way to display this app in full screen like it shows in your monitor, or am I seeing wrong?
Again , thank you 👍
Can I use an Alesis Recital?
Does anybody know what that exclamation mark (!) is at the bottom right corner? I have it too but I can't figure out what's wrong. Everything's working fine.
Great vid, brother ❤ great stuff without fukn samples. what would u recommend for best modeled orchestra instruments (especially strings) and drum kits?? Big thanks
Thanks ! But you skipped the amazing Clavinets
My bad!
Guitar in Pianoteq, that a little funny :) maybe modartt can make another vst for example guitarteq, probably that would be nice
Is this demo a time limited playing version or just piano without any options to modify the sounds?????
The only advantage keyscape has over this is its bigger both in size and sound but gjis sounds better to me
Nice demo, Ruben! Love your improv. I've really enjoyed v8. I'm not reaching for many other pianos these days, either. I fire up their guitar all the time to just relax and noodle around, it's so much fun to play. Looking forward to seeing your video on that!
I play pianoteq exclusively though 4 studio monitors and a Focusrite. My neighbor can hear me play and commented on my organ playing...lol....kind of a let down on pianoteq realism.
Lol, well some people call cellos violins, so I wouldn’t take those comments to heart.
You could demo Modartts organteq, maybe the neighbor recognizes the piano :-)
Lol. Modartt got some work to do, according to your neighbor. 😁
@@RA-el6zj Or... it could be my neighbor is a musical illiterate....even if I played the VSL library's exclusively I bet he might call it a harpsichord or something.
@@zumadale Im not sure... people have been saying pianoteq doesn't sound like a piano for years. Maybe he does have a good ear. 😋
Just found out your channel, truly love your videos!!
Glad you like them!
Very pleasant demonstration , cheers . liked and subscribed today .
Super! Is there a midi capture block and player in standalone version, as in Pianoteq 6?
Yes! I forgot to show that.
Is ıt heavy on CPU ? Mac Mini M1 with 1 tb ssd and 16gb ram..
No it is not cpu hungry, the IR reverb does add a bit
@@endonyxoneaudio8644 Thank you for the info ..
Which two instruments would you get if buying stage version?
I took K2 and Hohner, so happy to finally retrieve the original Pianet N I used to play in the 70ies..
Bluthner is my all time favourite
Extensive!! Great review
I need it!
Is your midi keyboard with weighted keys? It gives the feeling of actually pressing a piano key
Yes, it’s weighted, but Kontrol S88 keys are not as heavy as a real piano. They work well for piano, organ, and synth, but not the best for either.
A more piano-like keybed would be a Kawai VPC1. That has actual piano action.
@@hifimidi That looks awesome! but huge and heavy, what can you say on the Arturia KeyLab 88 MkII
@@Shepard7that has more of a piano feel than the Kontrol S88. I prefer it for piano over the S88 any day.
@@hifimidi Thank you so much for your reply, God bless you!
I don't quite understand what you get by default with the "Stage" version versus what the two instrument packs are? By two instrument packs do they mean that you choose two different pianos and that's it? Or are the instrument packs in addition to any pianos that come with the Stage version? I studied their website but could not make sense of it. For example, in your review of the Pro version, what do you get by default and which are the four instrument packs that you chose? It's too confusing.
For example, if I got the pro version, I could choose an NY Steinway, Rhodes, Classical Guitar, and Steel Drum.
Anything else would be like $50 or so to add.
If you wanted their entire instrument collection, or their pro studio bundle, it would be $900. They’re called packs because of the presets, which make it sound like different pianos. You get to choose which ones you want. Hope this helps.
@@hifimidi So, in your demo I see that you have 12 acoustic pianos on the list which means that you paid $50 for each of the extra ones. Am I correct? If I bought the Stage version would I only have 2 acoustic pianos without paying extra money for more pianos? If so, which 2 pianos would you recommend?
@@alfredohuerta5688this is an NFR version for demo purposes. With the Pro studio bundle, you get it all for a lower price than buying separately.
As for your other question, It depends on the music you make. I personally like the starting point of the NY Steinway. It has a medium tone that can be made darker or brighter.
The U5 is also good to have. Upright sounds are very distinct. I also really like their Rhodes and classical guitar. But their pianos are so customizable that you can get the sound you want with a few tweaks.
@@hifimidi Thank you so much for the feedback. I think I understand now.
@rosariomusmeci9879 Thanks so much for the clarification @rosariomusmeci9879. I really understand now. I wish I had not missed the sale of a few days ago. If it were still going on I would purchase the Standard version. I'll have to wait for the next big sale.
