    The piano sound is incredible but so are those fx and tape processor models! It would be AMAZING to be able to pass audio through this so we could just the fx on whatever audio source!

    Playing some Bach with this now. Normally I would look at the depth of dynamics and how expressive the instrument is. This just compelled me to crank the compression, turn on the tape and select some vintage equipment. The result is simply extraordinary, so much character and a playing experience that is very different from any other sampled piano I have -- and I have many.

    Splendid. And because my Dad was an officer in WWII (8th USAAF...and commanding officer of his unit that built the first arifield just off the beaches in Normandy) and my H.S. jazz and choral teacher was a young G.I. medic in Europe - (10th armoured division and terribly wounded in combat), I am getting this just so I can "hear" what they must have heard at one time or another during those unpleasant episodes in their youth while the world was in chaos around them so much of the time......

I have photos of them in uniform, and stories handed down to the next generation. I had no idea that these pianos were made for this role. Love the sound and was conjuring up all sorts of ideas while you were playing. 🎶🎶🎶

    Sounds gorgeous and the fx permutations stand out from anything else I've got. Does the order you turn the fx on determine their layer order in a chain or is this predetermined/moulded?
    Do you know where the piano got deployed, if it did?

    Would be great to be able run vocals through the FX too. It would be a great way to bring an intro of a song in or outro fro that fact as you the vocals and piano will still sound as one performance.

      External drive installation is supported.
      If external drive access is denied during installation your operating system will automatically change the default. Simply re start your computer and attempt to install again. The audio install location can be selected on the plug in format page.

    This really has me baffled. I wish for us hobbists those vsts would be more affordable. I'd love to see peoples reactions on the jam session I visit. When somebody sits down on the midi piano with this, I recon rappers wouldn't be able to hold back and jump at the microphone when they hear the sound of this. I'd love to see peoples reactions and what the evening could bring. Perhaps when I do financially better, but I don't even play the piano, I just give people the opportunity to by bringing the piano to jams. Yet this is so siiiick, I'd love to get my hands on it even just for a few jams.
