We have collaborated with the best piano manufacturers in the world, Steinway & Sons, Steingraeber, Bechstein, Blüthner, Grotrian and Petrof, who all have approved the sound and playability of their physically modelled concert grand pianos available in Pianoteq. Because there are no samples, the file size is just a tiny fraction of that required by other virtual instruments, making Pianoteq perfect for any modern laptop. What makes Pianoteq superior to other virtual instruments is that the instruments are physically modelled and thus can simulate the playability and complex behaviour of real acoustic instruments. It can be used both in standalone mode and as an instrument plug-in in VST, AAX, and AudioUnits hosts. It is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and will even run on some ARM-based boards such as the Raspberry Pi. Pianoteq is an award-winning virtual instrument which you can install on your computer (PC/Mac). Moreover, all piano models in Pianoteq have been refined by using a new string/soundboard modelling (double polarisation), bringing longer and more complex tones with a three-dimensional character. Based on recordings from the renowned Steinway Hall in New York, it provides the famous Steinway concert piano sound with superb musical expression. Interested in more info about Pianoteq?

Also again because it’s not sampled but actual recorded physical playing, the file size is really small and won’t take up a ton of drive space. Because it’s not sampled you can simulate the actual playability of Steinway, Grotrian or other incredible pianos.

Why pick Pianoteq over other VST’s? It’s the physical modeling of the instruments. By the way it’s really easy to upgrade from Stage to the Standard or PRO version if your needs change. When your register your product you will get a chance to you choose two instrument packs.
