    Synthogy, very nice indeed.  I have both, the main Ivory, and the Italian grand, and recommend "both."

    I have a few virtual acoustic pianos and the Italian Grand is my favourite...

    I bought 2 copies along with 2 iLoks to run them and I hate iLoks...

    But I love the Italian Grand more than I hate the iloks...
     
    I highly recommend that piano...

    The new Ivory Steinway should be a good one too... 

    Sorry - I don't use Autotune :)

    Well you could buy a "real" Steinway or a Fazioli and carry that around with you

    It's very hard to get one piano sample library to sound like another piano. Even with the best of eqs and filtering. Each piano has it's own particular sound. The challenge is like trying to make a ukelele ssound like a Martin guitar. The piano you have is a very nice piano. But, the Stienway would have it's own sound as well. It's hard to make one sound like the other. There are even differences from one Stieway and another. If you go to a piano shop and play 5 different Stienways, they will all sound a little different. That's just the nature of acoustic instruments.

    you really like True Pianos?  even the module that comes free with sonar?  Personally I can't stand it.

    I have the Garritan Steinway and Alesia's Keys (among others) but I still love the True Pianos - even the lowly one that comes with Sonar.  Nothing IMO comes close to the attack, dynamics an playability of true pianos.  You do have to warm it up a bit and the sustain is weak.  It also doesn't have sympathetic resonance but for sitting down and playing it is my first choice.

    Yes it is, Any speakers you can recommend? I got the Samson media 3 but want get some than better. 
    Was thinking of Krk for $150.00 but the m audio bx sounds better and comes in pares And buying the lexicon audio interface.

    Ha ha I would love real piano Fazioli never heard them.

    American Steinway D I'm thinking of buying it  Just can't hear difference between the sounds. Might be mein laptop speakers.

    True piano looks nice but I never use it. And Ilok OH MEIN GOSH!!! I hate it when will they fix this like waves.

    what exactly do you mean by "warm it up a bit?"
     
    and to me, sympathetic resonances are key to getting a good piano sound.  that's one of the main things I don't like about TP - it sounds too "sterile"

    Is the  Italian 10 Foot Concert Grand an actual piano like the Steinway is? 
    I search for it and came up with Fazioli.


    True piano is ok to me never actual set down and played it though.I mean I use dimension pro back then and True piano 
    was only demo so didn't know how work it well got confused lol
     But if works for you that's good.
