Carl, are you a beta tester? I mean since you're recommending it I'm assuming you've got some hands on with it. How does it sound on your studio monitors? I did notice on the website that it's characterized as having a warm tone. I didn't hear that. The demo video sounds brittle and unpiano like here. If that's a close approximation to the actual release, I think I'll have to stick with Ivory II.

No, I'm not a beta tester for this. I was looking for ADx64 & saw this on their site. When I post a link or news on a new product or upcoming release it doesn't necessarily mean I recommend it.


I plan on trying the demo. I'll decide then if it's anything I need or like. With pianos it's how well they sit or cut through in a mix that will be a deciding factor, not how it sounds based on a commercial type video.

Here's the another version, the other wasn't done correctly.
This sounds more like what I'd expected.

This sounds very good, actually. And it appears to have numerous options that EZ keys does not [singer not included]

Yup...that video is waaay better.  Piano sounds totally usable.  Thanks for posting the follow up.

This is a great plug in. I have been beta testing since may. If anyone wants a good representation of the sound I would be happy to post a quick audio demo to soundcloud. I am hoping to see it for $100 and maybe $50 for Addictive Drums owners but i really like this plug in. Anything more than $100 for a crossgrade and I may say forget it. 

Does this have keyboard midi grooves like EZkeys does?

The option is there but there appears to be no loops included in the beta I haven't tried to find any

+1!

That would be nice but both sets are very nice as well. From my understanding AD2 is on the to do list but its been all hands on deck for AK for months. It really is a great plug in that I think more people should check out. As I am sure most people know I am very hard on companies about putting out the best product possible and if they do not I have no problem telling them that. AK is a great plug in. Its worth $300 easy but the fact that we already have a ton of this stuff already out there is why I think $100 is a better price.
