Afaik this means a rather limited dynamic range. Detail and nuance will be lost. Now, with software as advanced as Pianoteq, that would probably mean a waste of good software. Of course it depends on your intended market, but if I were Pianoteq management, and I were to bring out a hardware/software integrated product it would have to be first class.

(There are other hw requirements as well, that makes the RPi an unlikely candidate)

sorry i've been AWOL (you probably don't remember me) but life has had its tricks and turns and i'm struggling to fit music in my life again O_o

Raspberry Pi is a small, inexpensive low-power open source hardware computer.   I know it looks underpowered, but Pianoteq doesn't need RAM or HDD space or massive IO, it just needs a processor.  And the Raspberry Pi has a pretty powerful GPU:

I was wondering if the Modartt team has looked into developing code to make use of the Raspberry Pi's GPU for sound modelling?  More than an experiment, if it could work, then Modartt could market a complete hardware/software solution for little more than the base cost of the software.
