Hey, I very much like sound of ID8 piano, spent some time with it :-) With Radical on sale this year and Reason 10, I thought it would be good idea to have a patch with sound as close as possible to ID8 and perhaps other ID8 pianos (Upright, Dance). I spent almost an hour of fiddling around with nob...

FYI one of the best comparison video is this one, including Radical, Reason Pianos and PianoTeq:



Hat off, such a great pianist there.

I was wondering what is typical compression ratio for refills? Is the compression algorithm something like ZIP or more of a loveless FLAC like ratio?

Do they ever do sales? I do not really need it, I just want it EDIT: They have a contest right now, you get 20 EUR discount by submitting a piece to youtube. Cool, going to exercise Misty jazz piece.

Yeah got Radical and Arturia Lab 2 (V-Piano) and 88Orchestra but PianoTeq beats them all. I love the new feature of recording all your performances into MIDI clips when in standalone mode. And Linux support, great for me for exercise. Will buy for sure.

I have that RE already, I want notes on treble/bass clef.

It is crucial, really. But the thing is, you will learn this "for free", as you will play more and more songs and chords. I started with piano beginning this year (December last year to be honest) and I can tell you that I am able now to find any key right away. If you want to hop from one chord to ...

Hey, I am learning note reading and I am looking for a VST plugin (or external software) that would show me notes as I press keys on my MIDI keyboard. Please note I do not want any audio processing/recognition plugin, but rather a MIDI plugin that simply shows a note. There was an app for iPhone tha...

Uh, can you explain to noob, what is feedback buffer?

Was waiting three months before purchase... but yeah.

Ok thanks, will use my 2nd monitor sure.

I am returning my 1700, doing RMA process with AMD support. My piece is hit by hardware bug - under heavy load I am getting segfaults and thus memory issues (BSOD). It is possible to reproduce this under Linux via GCC (aka GCC bug). Bad luck, only some pieces are affected.

I am looking for some good nice ambient or "from outer space" patches, trying to achieve that Interstellar theme atmosphere. I know that the main instrument there is genuine organ. Do you have some other tips from R9 stock sounds?

I want to have Mixer and Rack in horizontal split, is this possible?

Thanks!

Oh one more thing, Synthesia app (iOS, Android, PC, Mac) got me learned River Flows In You without any experience with piano (just the basics) in a month. Really good app, you buy it just once, license works everywhere (tablet, phone, PC).

ID8 piano is really good actually, well balanced. And Radical Piano is the best for me, it was in sale the other day. As a hobbyist I also cannot afford spending hundreds just for nice sounds in my room

I meant PCEe really. I was just thinking loud. Nothing really, will stick with USB.

I am looking for a PCI sound card with decent ASIO driver and just stereo out, mono in (guitar, mic) for home studio. Which one? I see most sound cards these days are USB.

Quick google showed ASUS Sonar cards with ASIO, any experience?

I have just found viewtopic.php?t=7281254 whoops. Sorry, ignore the thread.

Hey, I am using Reason with Behringer UCA USB card because I just happen to have pair of them (was DJing some time) and I just tried ASIO4ALL with my integrated ALC887 just for fun and I was very surprised as it outperformed the Behringer (lower stable latency). Anyone else using ALC887 with Reason?...

http://www.billspianopages.com has a lot of good free content, the book looks very nice.

NN-XT upgrade and nicer look on Retina - that's all I hope for.

The mentioned update are just corrections, no new sounds found so far.

I think it is great, from the start which is catchy, vocals are great and it is very complex. Hat off, two nights? Unbelievable, including recording the signer and taking the other vocals and speech? Anyway stunning.

Like it, the piano deserves a solo part with applause at the end, because why not?
