I have the Roland RD700NX. It's a couple of generations old, but I think the key actions are quite similar to yours. With Pianoteq, I pretty much have to set "slow keyboard" under the velocity curve, and "enable global velocity curve", to realistically play any instrument. I think the Roland keyboards tend to have heavier action. So I hope this will help. Cheers.

Thanks for the tip.

I use an FP30x with key action PHA-4. It helps to use the Velocity at the preset option "Moderately slow keyboard"

Additionally, in order to improve the pianoteq sound coming out of the FP30x internal speakers, it has helped me:
- removing reverb to get more clarity of sound
- reducing the resonance, bothe symp. and duplex.

The sound is not yet like the sound coming out of the headphones, but it is much better than using the default preset.

I keep investigating on ways to improve the sound for this device. One challenge is the donward facing speakers.

Has anybody else tweaked the settings for FP30x?

I calibrated the Volicity using the wizard in Pianoteq, and I was happy to see that I got clear tones!

I'm really impressed by the sound of the Bösendorfer in the app.

I would absolutely love to hear a live piano concerto on a real Bösendorfer 260!

Thanks so much for your help, and I hope you have a great start to the week!

Hello dear reader,
i´m from germany so please excuse my english!
I have been learning to play the piano for a while now. It is a wonderful experience for me.
Now I found a demo version of Pianoteq 8 online and immediately fell in love with the sound of the Bösendorfer 280 VC...
But only when I use the keyboard on the display of my Ipad.
With the keyboard of the FP30, the internal sound is deactivated of course, the Bösendorfer sounds very muffled...
Is this due to the demo version or is there a filter/MIDI setting or something similar on the FP30?
Can you help me? I would like to do my exercises on the Bösendorfer

Best wishes and happy Easter, Nils-H.

I bought an FP-30 to use with Pianoteq and found that - thru the FP-30 speakers - all PTQ pianos sound more muffled than on my other keyboards with speakers, presumably because the speakers on the FP-30 face the floor. I replaced the FP-30 with the FP-60 (with traditional upward facing speakers) and that solved my problem.

Hello Stephen, thank you for your answer!

I will try out your suggestion tonight.
I haven't worked with Roland's Piano Designer yet because the basic settings of the piano actually sound very good to me... as I said I'm still a beginner....
at the age of 62 ;-)

Greetings from Germany and have a nice Easter

Hello Nils
     When you are using Pianoteq with the FP30X the only setting in the Piano Designer App that will have any influence is 'Key Touch'. I set this to 22 and use the default 'straight line' velocity curve in Pianoteq.
  I assume you are using the keyboard's internal speakers. If you want to improve the sound further with Pianoteq then a pair of external powered speakers will make a big difference.

I love the Bosen sound as well.  I also use the new Kawai with a few tweaks for Rock/Prog playing.

Best wishes and happy Easter, Nils-H.
