I have been playing it for a few days, so I am past the initial impressions, and I can say I am keeping this as my main instrument from now own, perhaps occasionally switching to the SK-EX.
Below is a link to the music I make. It is very improvisational, and is based on several different pieces from a game called Touhou Project.

I would love to share the FXP, but I get an error during upload which I was not able to fix.
Dear Secretfirefox,
I really enjoyed your improvisation, your touch, and the setting you used for the recording.
Really great work!

Hi Carmelo, I appreciate your comment! I'm glad you like my music. Thanks!

Hello secretfirefox and welcome to the forum,
Very nice interesting way of improvising, special style - I can like this, had to listen 3 times. I like especially section from 1,42 - to about 3,00. The music starts with speed after the intro. Nice when things happen in music, it cheers you up. I understand the slow down and from about 3,50 is a new part starting, as you said, it is based on several different pieces from a game.
Good sound. What did you change in Bosendorfer? And what piano have you used before? I listened to som of your older music too.
Nice to have you on board - this is totally different from my Bach playing and my own way of improvising.
Thank you secretfirefox for sharing. It's always interesting to have people that improvise, for me, in new ways.
Best wishes,Stig
Hi, Stig! Thanks for the warm welcome!
Yes, this is based on a variety of pieces from that game. I usually pick around three to focus mainly on, but things do happen sometimes and end up quoting other pieces whenever I see fit.
I'm glad you like my sound!
Again, I would like to post the preset directly, but here is what I have done: I use the stage version, with the Warm preset, so no changes to the mics or other aspects of the piano. I changed they dynamics to 48, applied EQ to bring out more bass and treble (Bass = 250, +4.5dB, 0.60Q; Treble = 4000, +3.5dB, 0.60Q), and made my custom reverb basing on Dry Room (mostly the same settings, just increased the mix to +25dB). Finally, my velocity curve has 4 additional points between 1 and 127, and are as follows: 25,20|50,43|75,67|100,95.
I used to use the Garritan CFX Lite.
I like Bach, I find it pure and refreshing. Inspiring, even. I'll be sure to check some of your music soon.
ps: I forgot to mention I also change the condition to .15 too!
