Here is a pleasant piano piece by the same name. Reminds me of Vangelis's China - influenced by the wider region I suppose.

Maybe Modartt has developed it's own auto tuner. That would be fantastic wouldn't it! This would solve the need to keep tuning Pianoteq

Hello everyone, they have already developed its own auto tuner - Pianoteq never gets out of tune, it's locked For example, my version 5 sounds exactly the same today as it did then, although I have rambled very hard on it. Pianoteq never goes out of tune. Fantastic! (unless you do it out of tune yourself of course, which can be fun sometimes)
Best wishes,
Stig

Perhaps it's going to be a new way of tuning the models. Lots more tuning capabilities perhaps?

I would love to have a new version, even more realistic and with CFX and C7 instrument packs.
and me a beautiful double bass, and as it's almost Christmas a cello
The cynic in me tells me the release date was moved to November just for that reason...

]]>But what tunning they mean? 440Hz or 436Hz? How I can "stay tuned" when I don't know the tunning!? I am not playing with you guys...
You already have the right tuning, you can stay safe and tuned, because you get their news letter. You don't have to tune in to another ”radio station”.
Don't worry, the surprise is surely close.
Best wishes,

Oh, my three thousand five hundred post, comments and uploaded music Ptq/Orgtq, couldn't believe my eyes….well, I hope my activities can continue, we never know what happens in the future...
Pianoteq 9 ?
This might be. Facts from https://www.modartt.com/pianoteq_changes
Pianoteq 8 was released in November 2022, 2 years after Pianoteq 7 had been released.
Pianoteq 7 was released in November 2020, 3 years after Pianoteq 6 had been released.
Pianoteq 6 was released in September 2017, 3 years after Pianoteq 5 had been released.
Pianoteq 5 was released in May (ehm) 2014, 2 years after Pianoteq 4 had been released.
Pianoteq 4 was released in April (ehm) 2012, 3 years after Pianoteq 3 had been released.
Pianoteq 3 was released in February 2009, 2 years after Pianoteq 2 had been released.
Pianoteq 2 was released in March 2007
My speculation based on the above facts are:
- the release cycle has been switched from releasing a major update during spring into releasing during fall
- the release cycle has a major release every 2 years if they can, 3 years if they encounter a showstopper
Since we are in November 2024, Pianoteq 9 may be coming soon (stay tuned) and that would make three times in a row that the release happens like that!
Those cat models in the image are japanese? Maybe a Japanese piano
Yeah, good point! Maybe with a Japanese piano since Yamaha finally caved in and gave the "Authorized by Bösendorfer" stamp, so it might give the "Authorized by Yamaha" for a CFX
It's possible that a new piano only is coming, but my personal opinion is that a new instrument could benefit from an update to the modeling engine, so the latter should come first. However history proves me wrong on that since on version 5 (and to a lesser degree version 6) new instruments were being released towards the end of the "life" of the version, so that's not completely impossible
