I don't claim to know it all but I know how to spot a desirable piano sound.  I am simply awestruck by the detail and beauty of all the models within the Pianoteq VSTi and standalone.  Coupled this with the mind-boggling list of control parameters, there is nothing like it.

As I dabbled with the Payel, I could not help wonder if the exquisite and truly inspirational sound of the instrument itself, may have had an impact on Chopins compositional uniqueness.
