We just released an update for Evolution Rosewood Grand--here's what's new: 


- Doubled the audio content (it's over 13.7 GB now!) with the addition of separate mic perspectives.
- Completely re-processed samples with cleaner denoising.
- Added sostenuto pedal support (MIDI CC#66).
- More factory presets for additional instant piano tones.

There is also a new $40 OFF competitive crossgrade discount available for Evolution Rosewood Grand. If you own a competing piano sample library, you can now access this bonus discount.

Evolution Rosewood Grand has a beautiful tone and accurate response right out of the box, capable of playing everything from hard-hitting rock to soft ballads. Backed by powerful scripting, Evolution Rosewood Grand includes rich sympathetic resonance, advanced pedal techniques (re-pedaling, half-pedaling), and modeled damper motion for realistic re-attacks. Evolution Rosewood Grand has 12 dynamic layers and 2x round-robin.

Wow, a whole new set of mic positions -- in a free update? I'm not an ERG user, but if I was I'd be pretty tickled. Some other vendors would have called this update the "deluxe" addition and charged and extra 50 bucks for it. Way to go, Greg.

I am an ERG user and the update just put this Library amongst the top 3 players at a bargain price. I'm very tickled! :)

Hi - I have a few of the options that are eligible for crossgrade. I am curious what you would consider the other 2 top libraries to be? Lots of different opinions on pianos. Just considering and I have far more pianos that I really even need - 

Hi Brando,
 
Sounds like we have something's in common. I also am overstocked on dedicated piano libraries but I can't quit buying them.
 
My main goto Sample libraries were Galaxy Vintage D 1.2 and Alicia's Keys but I also really enjoy the expressiveness of the modeled Pianoteq 4.5 pro with the Bluthner model 1 add-on.
Can't say about Ivory II as I don't do ilok...
 
If you are looking for a versatile sampled library and all 3 pedals are important I would highly recommend the Evolution Rosewood Grand.
 
As always each one has it's strengths and your mileage may vary. Hope this helps.
 
Kind regards,
Rick
 
 

Pretty much any piano library qualifies you for Greg's crossgrade discount.

Funny how I got by with one real piano for 40 years, but when I started collecting virtual pianos I couldn't stop at 1, or 2, or 6.

I think you've got 'em covered Greg.

It seems that the Memorial Day weekend is becoming the Spring counterpart to Black Friday in the Fall. I don't remember seeing as many sales as I have recently.
