Topic: CP-80 - Does it need a combined umpluged sound???

A person who played a real CP-80 told me that Pianoteq add-on lacked some of the vivid of the real thing.

     So I tried to imagine what could be missing. Maybe the player, in a real CP-80,  not just hear the final amplified sound, the final sound, but a mixture of the amplified sound and the strings sounds together.

     To bether understand Here a short video of the umplugged sound of a CP-80: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNYTzwxaIA8

     So my sugestion is to add the unplugged sound of CP-80 strings combined with the final "virtual circuit amplified signal" sound.  Also a control to adjust "the "amonunt" of the unplugged sound related to the eletric amplified sound.

I guess for the player of the CP-80, they might think this,
but bear in mind that the whole point of the instrument was that it could
be transported to gigs and played live on stage by rock bands through huge PAs.
No-one in the audience is going to hear the acoustic sound of the instrument.
