Make sure you try the new 8.2 update released yesterday - lots of improvements to the sound. I use it with external reverbs (well, in a DAW), EQ and saturation. I tend to prefer the Blüthner model.

The fact that you can run this on an iPhone or iPad just makes it a no brainer. I use it live with my Studiologic Numa X piano and it just works amazingly.

I've already taken notes on every plugin I want to buy in the near future months ago but damn, I always come back to your videos just for the impro music. One of the few pianists I can listen for hours, thank you!

Your playing is phenomenal. Really great chords and melody combos improvised.

[axiommoix]

i just came to listen how the plugin sounds and got hypnotized by your playing.. you're incredible, such a joy to my ears :) thank you sir!

This is it! The ultimate piano vst, alive like a real piano, with the best dynamics, best presets (i have the studio version), best sounds, best resonance, best characters, lightyears ahead. This is the future of vsts. Happy new year!

Pianoteq has been the sound of the piano I use for practice since around 2011. I upgraded from Stage to Standard 7 a while back. I could be content with Stage in hindsight, but I'm happy for Mod to have the money for Standard. I have e.g. Komplete which has a number of sample-based pianos which are nothing compared to Pianoteq.

I think the ability to push a button and get a new $100, 000 piano is pretty luxurious, even if it’s not precisely the same thing. Inspirational playing as always!

I have been using Pianoteq for many years and it just keeps getting better and better. The new 8.3 version with the new Bosendorfer piano is my favourite to date. I can’t wait to see how the development of this library progresses!

[cyclehavenbanks]

Pianoteq is by far my favorite out of NI maverick, noire and pure piano. It’s just a joy to play and the reverb is beautiful too for ambient style. It can also nail those fast repeated notes and consistent velocity. Love it!

[greyhomeproductions]

Your piano play just healed my heart. Thank you so so much. You blessed my day

Sounds great from here, really nice playing. A nice mini-concert, especially the K2 piece.

[truthmanifestingtruth]

Definitely a yes for me! I once said I’m good with only having Keyscape/Omni2 and Native Instruments set of kontakt pianos, but pianoteq 8 has its own multiple lanes!✌🏾

sounds amazing, and so you are ! wish you a great 2024 on the way 🙏😊

[VitorZanoni]

Amazed how lightweight this is, specially for iPad users, the sound is perfect, playfull, for playing live this is the best choice!

[Pianissimo-sr]

Great playing !!! Funny to read all the sempiternel discussions on the various forums about the various piano actions, when in fact, you clearly demonstrate that with top notch technique, what you can do a a Korg D1 is way superior to what a lot of wannabe will ever be able to achieve on digital pianos 10x the price !! Congrats 🙌 and also big thump up to the Modarrt chaps.

Lets admit this over talented guy is just enjoying playing and every day comes up with a new idea for video to just sit and play for us) "I just bought a new chair for my piano, here is my review. *Improvising for 1.5 hours*. Well, thats a good chair" )

Thanks for the video. Love your improvising more than most of the einaudi and tiersen pieces.

[vgill]

Great playing! I use Pianoteq on my M1 iPad Pro controlled by my Roland FP-60X piano. I also use the USB audio interface in the FP-60X, so it feels like Pianoteq is built in to the piano. The quality of the sound and feel inspires me to many long improv sessions like this one :)

[zPianodude]

Very nice, great review. I appreciate all the in-depth discussion of the sound and how the sound really is good for you

[dimotchakarov]

Hi Sam. Thank you for your inspirational video.
I'm a pianist and a nerd myself and found your in depth reviews great.
And don't be so humble. You're the best playing piano tuner tech I've met.
Keep the good work.
P.S.
Those French guys should pay you ...
I'm gonna buy it.
Thanks. Dimo
