I've been playing around with Signature Grand (a 9' Steinway Model D) for a while now. I've mostly used it to play solo classical stuff, so can't comment for the rest of the presets at the moment. It has a lot of character. I enjoy using it very much so. My only complaint was that the transition between higher velocities could be smoother. I'm sure it can be fixed with an update. Other than that, it has a great tone and in many areas better than NI pianos...excluding Noire of course. This is been my very first sample library from Simple Sam Samples.
I recorded this Russian piano piece to demo the default Classical preset. Tunecore Japan claimed a 'copyright' on my recording of an old Russian piece!!! Filed a dispute as usual...
Oh, forgot to mention it doesn't work with Kontakt Player at the moment.

Great performance!
Simple Sam Signature Grand is a bargain for the price. Nice room ambience recorded with it and realistic.

Thank you Kevin. Oh it's definitely a great deal. For Ver.1 it's already a great sounding library considering the price. I usually try not to judge a library by its price, until I actually play it. For this one, I had doubts and wasn't expecting this tone at all.
