What miiind says. Except I would adjust the forte and then mezzo hammer hardness. To be fair, there are many things you might end up doing to approximate a specific piano sound. Good luck. And try other things too when you have the time. Lot of good stuff in pro.

K2 dreamy is a good start! The piano you linked is definitely felted. You could switch one of the pedals to Celeste and depress that, play with felt thickness a bit to fine-tune it. I really like mapping a continuous pedal to celeste, as you can adjust felt levels in real-time. It's really nice to be able to do this as you want to change dynamics in the song.

You'll gain a lot more by playing around with it yourself, but here's an example of how you can use additional pedals to dial in different timbres in real-time:

Trying to achieve a specific piano sound

Hi,

I am trying to achieve the specific piano sound in this track:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMkzDrFLqQU

I started with a K2 dreamy piano but I'm wondering if anyone has any other suggestions as to presets or settings

I am fairly new to Pianoteq, but I have the Pro version so can access all settings

I tried playing around with the presets and various settings, but I think this goes beyond those. I was advised to double my piano track and pan each one slightly to each side in order to make the piano sound wider and "bigger"

If you have any recommendations, I would appreciate it

Thank you in advance!
