I don't see any examples on that page... Is there a player visible when you view it?

I already have the Ivory II program which contains three pianos. I have the True Piano's Amber, and the East West Steinway B in their silver program. So I'm pretty well set for piano sounds. If this would have come out a couple of years ago I would have bought one of the two piano's offered because that would have been enough for me. I do like the idea of them being 24 bit, which puts them in a special class. They both sound beautiful and for $100 bucks, it's well worth it if you need a very good quality piano sample set. I would have much prefered to buy only one piano than the full set I got with Ivory II, that would have saved me some dough. My favorite Ivory piano is their Yamaha C7, which is very comparable to the Yamaha in Cakewalk's offering. I don't use the other two Ivory Piano's so I paid a lot of money just to have the right to choose the piano that I do use.
$100 bucks for a quality 24 bit piano sample program ?? That's a great deal.

Wow... Very nice demos. I liked both the Steinway and the Yamaha versions. All I need now is $200 because I'd have a hard time picking just one.

Hmmmm. Sounds decent on the demos, but for $100 for each I'm not sure. There are a TONS of piano libraries out there, especially if you have Kontakt so the competition is pretty stiff.

2 gig each? That'll take a few minutes to load into DP… I don't think DP has any optimization for sample preload (let alone any type of streaming), AFAIK… Bring your spare memory w/ you while you're at it...

If you put them in your shopping cart and go to checkout you get:-
"There was an error during checkout."
If you try other store items you can go to the checkout.
So you cannot purchase them at the moment!!

I have the older version of the Steinway and its ok, but I think the one in Dimension (Classic Keys, Concert Grand) is almost as good. One thing I don't like about the Steinway is that it plays only in 32-bit Cakewalk Sound Center which is not a great interface, but it works well and I think I only paid $20 for it. Its sounds better than any real piano that I could buy. PS: Its con sensus.

Yeah, that Cakewalk Sound Center being 32bit was a real disappointment when I got X1. The world is getting away from 32bit, and what does Cake do they include a huge 32bit plug in their DAW 2.0.
