Hi,

As you guys know I/we currently won't publicly comment on new products that 'might be' in development. Even if we leak/give away some information this won't happen at earliest till a product is close to betatesting. TruePianos was considered vaporware by many till it finally got released, even though it had been in betatesting for over a year upon it's release. So 'too early', 'sort of' announcements won't happen anymore. Should anybody claim we are working on product 'x' publicly, whether truth or not, we won't comment on it.

However if we would do a EP product it would have controls like Chorus/Reverb/etc and probably things like convolution engine. Anyhow an EP like product indeed shouldn't force a dry sound.

Regarding things like reverb. It's not unlikely to hit TP at v2.0 or earlier.

To avoid fueling further speculation, this was my last (and first ?) reply on a possible EP product from us in this thread.

If TP releases a modeled EP that is close to the quality of Velvet/Scarbee at an interesting price point....(and Roel, please take note...FX are critical to most of the EP sounds that people want..if you release a modeled EP that is bone dry with no FX...IMHO it will have limited appeal to many people that just wanna play and not have to worry about how to dial in the perfect supertramp sound.)

Just the fact that Roel partipates here and listens to what we are saying is reason enough to choose TP over Pianoteq, IMHO.

If anyone will attend the Winter NAMM, feel free to meet us at booth #6828, hall A.

Well. Now I have to eventually buy PianoTeq, too, right? :?

....Which isn't a bad thing, since they both do different things, and you can't have too much high-quality software.

Yeah... I've had Gear Addiction Syndrome since the 1960's. I keep thinking I've gotten all the music stuff I need. I keep being wrong. :D

Same here ... in purchases like this I've always leaned towards excess some ... for example, do I really need Kontakt, DimPro, Wusik and ST2/SS2/Philharmonik? Do I need four different Sampletekk pianos, ST2 Piano Expansion Tank, and TruePianos?

Back when I was a square dance caller, I had to have the best equipment (for my budget), all the new records, etc. Ironically, I have even less time to do music now, because I ended up calling again after a seven-year hiatus. OTOH I can now make my own patter and singing call recordings if I want.

Btw, Roel, Truepianos rocks!

Bought Truepianos last night since I could no longer justify not using the rebate I got on it when I got Jamstix :oops:

It's just fun to play!

I tested both (with demoversios) pianoteq sounds synthetic (i thinking good sample is better than this) in my ears. I vote : truepiano

Post

My 2 cents : I downloaded the 2 demos and I found that TP is better for just playing piano (mostly solo) but Pianoteq is much more easy to fit in a mix with a rich piano sound.
You can't always get what you waaaant...

Hi

I have made a youtube video comparison between GPO4 Steinway Piano vs NI New York Concert Grand vs Truepianos vs Pianoteq Play.



This should help you all decide that Pianoteq is way better then truepianos.

Truepianos feels that a cloth was puted over the speakers....???
