The sound seems to be OK but in my point of view, the samples attack is a bit too slow : I'm maybe wrong but I think it would be hard to play high speed soli with these samples (juts like in jazz or in the french musette)

There is 3 Demos available now.

The first demo is played a lite of beat. The attacks are actually faster than possible to play on a real accordion, even if you try very hard...

The playability v.s realism is optimized for each sample within each sampler program.

To crop the attacks more will decries the realism of the instrument i´m afraid

I haven't managed to figure out what the difference is between the four packages. What's the difference between them?

Thanks "rlund" glad you liked them

The difference is the key register button positions that gives different sounds. There is 5 total key register positions on this Weltmeister and you get them divided into 4 SampleSet. Each SampleSet contains 4 sample programs.

Thanks “pough” for asking there was badly written info on the page that easly could be misunderstood. Now that has been corrected.

Thanks for the info!

What are the chances of getting some demo MIDI files with it. I don't know how to play the accordion OR program one, so some examples would be very helpful!

Sorry there is no MIDI files available with the product. But some hints for emulating accordion that’s in the MIDI territory is volume swells. That’s why we recommend a volume pedal. But it’s easy to just draw in controller 7 info in your VST host, like SX.
Manual vibrato is a god way to enhance the realism also. In our product you have a very well sampled and looped accordion with release samples.
The rest is up to the controller use from your side. I can’t say for sure but I think this is the only product of its kind on the market to day.
I don’t think somebody else has sampled an accordion this serious before.
But that’s just a guess...

Actually, I think someone has... but your price is better. Theirs has, I just noted, gone down from $99...

Yes I have seen that product. Haven’t tested it though.
The demo song is ok. Another sound. Could be a complement to ours, maybe.

or an alternative..
