I just picked up The Emperor (based on everyone else's enthusiasm for this piano).....I may get the newer Black Ambient...might be good for the pop/country stuff I'm doing
Just to be clear, the new Black that I was describing above and which Smedberg just bought is not the Black Ambient, but is the SampleTekk Black for Kontakt 5 (you must have Kontakt5--it comes with a serial number for the free Kontakt5 player).  If you are ordering it, it is the fourth piano down on this page:http://www.sampletekk.com/products.php?cat=44&pg=3   Here is the page describing it in more detail: http://www.sampletekk.com/proddetail.php?prod=STDELIVER-039-KONT.   

On Edit:  I say this in the previous paragraph about the new Black because you refer to the "newer Black Ambient" and thought at first that you were referring to the new Black that we have been discussing one and off in this thread; however, I now realize you may be referring to the Black Ambient that is part of the three Black pianos on this page: http://www.sampletekk.com/products.php?cat=44    Have not tried it as I suspect that the one I refer to in the previous paragraph will cover it well because it is so tweakable.

How does Old Lady & Emperor compare to the pianos in Kontakt -Berlin, Upright, Classic , Steinway?

About the same or much better?
Much better in my opinion.  The Old Lady in particular has a lot of character, very dark, warm and round; you should read bitflipper's comments on her earlier in this thread particularly about the instrument itself.  


One warning/piece of advice for the aged or those with arthritus--I ended up having to adjust slightly the velocity slider in Sonar for my SampleTekk pianos.  This has more to do with my aging weak hands and muscle deterioration.  Whereas the SampleTekk Black for Kontakt (the new one) has three velocity curves plus a velocity sensitivity dial right on the GUI, for the other/older SampleTekk pianos this is not built into the GUI itself, but velocity is easily adjusted by just moving the velocity slider on the midi input source channel in Sonar itself--but don't overdo it.  I had been cheating The Old Lady by not giving her the right touch.  Now that this adjustment is made, she and I are much happier partners with our tickling games (on the ivory of course).  I think that the Kontakt NY Grand and Berlin, etc... have a velocity curve option right on the GUI.  Having said this in my case, I find that the SampleTekk pianos to be fantastic and worth much more than they are charging for them right now on this sale.  


If you have doubts I would recommend to just buy one at this discount price ($25), try it out, and you will probably come back for more.  The sale lasts until July 27th; so you have time.

Thanks!

 Sorry I have been off the radar for awhile and missed a few days. Thanks for the comments on the test track. I pulled that but I have a more recent song there that has the white in it called "Draw Me Close".  It isn't for everything but fits well for something predominate. I was surprised that my cpu can do this and lots of other tracks with ease. Not bad for a Q8300 chip with 12gb memory.I only use two hard drives streaming off of the non OS one.

How long does your sale run for Worra and another important thing for me- just how big are these downloads?
