It's pretty cool! If you have Standard or Pro, you can also use Pianoteq's resonator with your sample libraries to give them some life (so they'd pass the resonance test, but still keep the timbre of the original sample library). Here's a thread that explains a little more about how to do that:

Overtones made audible

2024-11-05T14:27:45Z

Dear All,
I just found a youTube video where Leonard Bernstein explains the overtone series with a piano. What he did was to strike a note (lowest C) but had the C one Octave above held down before the strike. When he relases the lower C the first overtone (the C above) was still ringing. He continued with following Overtones (next would be G, then F and G).

I tried this with pianoteq and the simulation did really behave the same way.
Perfect Simulation!

Then I tried with some of the sampled Pianos I have. Most failed!

I do not know if the famous Hans Zimmer Klavier (NKS instrument for Kontakt Sampler by spitfire audio) would do this, but I have read complaints from users that this sampled instrument does not support half pedaling. Not only half pedaling, but in degrees of footwork.

That is another advanage of the pianoteq approach. In Price and size.
