Which Synthology Ivory do I want?

I'm on the fence between the Pianos pack and the Steinway 1951.
 
With Kontakt I pretty much use the "New York" kit for everything.
 
Watcha  think?
 
 
Thanks!
 
best regards,
mike

    You want the newest one...Synthogy Ivory II American Concert D.  Should be in stores soon.

    Do you think it's fair to say that America Convert D 1951 Steinway will serve as a replacement for the Grand Pianos 3 pack?
     
    It seems like buying the Grand Pianos package now would be like moving backwards in time.
     
    They just released a AAX 64bit beta... I'm ready to jump into the canoe.
     
     
    Thanks.

    All I know is that all the demos I've heard kick holy hell out of everything else I've got...and that's goin some.  I'll be picking it up shortly but I don't think it's shipping yet...or is it?

    I don't know. There are several folks who will take my money for it today.
     
    Maybe I should read the fine print. ;-)

    I want all of the Ivory II series but will never have them since they require an iLok. If/when they get over that scam I will purchase them.

    Go with the Ivory II Grand Pianos. You get a lot of variety in that package, particularly with the Bosendorfer and Yamaha pianos. You can always add Italian and Steinway later if you really need it. I love Ivory II.

    Can I be the contrarian and say that I love the sound of the Hume in the upright package?
     
    I'm starting to realize that the quality of my playing doesn't exactly stretch or bring out the capabilities of a huge Steiny library, but the Hume just sounds beautiful.

    I ordered my concert d yesterday.  Again, my impression is based on all the demos I've heard on YouTube.  I don't own any of the Synthogy stuff and some of their earlier demos didn't exactly blow me away.  But this new Concert D definitely did.
