I resisted buying any pianos this Black Friday, because I've decided to get the Pianoteq 8 Stage, which is the cheapest of the models. But since the Stage version didn't go on sale, I'll hold off on purchasing it and use my money on stuff that is on sale. laugh

The hard part will be picking which models I want. I've heard very good things about the Kawai and Bösendorfer that were recently released.

One of the nice things about the Pianoteq pianos is that each comes with a number of different presets, such as Classical, New Age, and Felt. There's also an an option to "age" the piano.

Plus, because it's physically modeled, it's a small download and loads fast. You can download a free demo and decide for yourself if you like it.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
