Musiclover,
So glad to see you are enjoying this product. That now makes three of us. You, me and Peter (who by the way went for the full version) have all taken advantage of this wonderful product from the folks at Soniccouture. Seems every piano has it own voice and speaks to each of us in a different manners. On top of that it is certainly true that different music requires different pianos.

The Hammersmith is my "player" piano. I use a number of piano VSTs in my music, but when I am actually playing the piano this is the piano I want to play. Could be the 21 Velocity Layers. This is extremely expressive on my SL88iStudio.

I would have thought this tread would have gotten more attention here with the BIAB Folks. I suspect several reasons. 1) Folks already have there go-to piano sounds which fit the music they make and are just not generally looking for something new. 2) Many are not familiar or comfortable with the hoops one has to jump through to use a Kontakt instrument. For this final point I can only add, if any one is waiting for a reason to install the Free Kontakt Player-V6 and jump into the deeper end of the pool to advance their music libraries, this is the time and this is the piano.

Oh, and despite prior claims, I can run this in BIAB 2021 v822! But unfortunately, not without an issue! cry It seems that when this VST is used with the MST's the player has his foot down hard on the Sustain Pedal the entire performance. Ya, that is a problem. I started another thread to see if we can find a fix for that. crazy
