Topic: CP-80 Electric Grand
Hi, this is my first post here
I would really buy the pianoteq as I find it an innovative and, most of all, good sounding one, you can feel the passion behind this work.
On the other hand I've always been fond of electric pianos and, among them, of the Combo Piano series from Yamaha, that featuring the CP70 and 80.
Now, I tried the demo and I must confess that I found some sonic differences between the software and its model, where the most important to me is in the biasing towards the "acoustic" side of the piano; I feel a lot of resonances in the middle octaves which should be not to me.... in few words it sounds to me like you guys at MOdartt modeled the piano itself (without turning it on sounds almost the same except for a little difference with the decay, the CP is a "size S" ) with its proper overtones the resonances; what, to me, seems not modeled (ok, I don't know it exactly) is the pick-up set; this has the quirk of kind of "reduce" (maybe it's not the correct word) some harmonic intermodulations or resonances, and this distinguishes the "acoustic" quality from the "electro-acoustic" feel.
Would this model improve or get a special treatment as a commercial add-on? I badly wish so.
Thanks for sharing any reply or opinion.
