So Pianoteq didn't work well with my inner soundcard(which is pretty strong soundcard, designed for audiophiles, but not for music application).

So I tried to operate Pianoteq with my Native instrument Rig Kontrol(if you familiar with it, I'm also a  guitar player), this unit includes soundcard strong enough for Pianoteq(not on highest setting at all, but sounds OK).

But what is going on on gigs?
I understand you have to bring laptop and amplifier, but I assume no laptop comes with studio soundcard in it.
So what is the common way to use Pianoteq in gigs?
To bring laptop + amplifier + external soundcard?
Is that what I'm suppose to do?
Is this the recommended way?
Is this what most of Pianoteq users do?

Thanks.

I'm kind of surprised is doesn't sound good with your internal card.  I have a Dell with an Intel Core I5.  I don't know what the internal sound card is but it sounds fine.

I don't know, when I try to operate Pianoteq with my asus stx essence ii soundcard in ASIO mode, I get error message.

So after that I tried to operate Pianoteq with my asus stx essence ii soundcard and with ASIO4ALL, and it didn't work well.

Well this may seem stupid, but have your thought about getting a different laptop.  I have one Asus with a Celeron that is for all intents and purposes useless with Pianoteq.
