maybe Modartt can model it, but call it something else for legal reasons :-)
But..I agree..it would be great to model a Stienway ( spelled that way ) :-)

I doubt "Stienway" would pass legal scrutiny, and "Stonestrasse" neither, tho "Kleinway" possibly could .

It will be interesting to see if Garritan can pull something extra out of the sampling bag compared to other sampled instruments (price excepted). Not that _I_ am interested one bit (the LSB).

But why Steinway would want to pay moddart? Perhaps they would try to buy the company and the software, since they are financial monsters, they have lots of it enough to credit them even the rights to the software. The question is: will be moddart for sale in the future.? :-?

But Im digressing here. It would be awesome to have an Imperial modeled within pianoteq. :-)

Just a question: Had the earlier Stewinway samplers, before thes one endorsed by Steinway, paid any royalties to the Steinway trademark?

Maybe in a year or two, when Pianoteq improve even more and became recognized as the ultimate digital piano, the Stewinway manufature endorse a Steinway add-on.

I think this is pressing a bit too much the Moddart guys.

If they will realise a Steinway, as Steinweay it's a trademark know as a ultimate piano, I supose they woulkd let it for later.
keep the best for the end, like people says ;-)

Another vote for Keith Emerson's Steinway!!!

Garritan and Steinway will very soon launch a new Steinway (sampled) version which will be the new standard instead of Ivory or NI. This sound should be captured by Pianoteq.

How about a compromise? First a Hamburg Steinway B and then a Hamburg Steinway D?
From the player's perspective?
