Really enjoying Pianoteq 8 and all the pianos. Especially grateful that Modartt allows us Linux users to enjoy this app. Thank you, Modartt team.

I would too like to say that I really enjoy the new version 8 of Pianoteq Stage. I feel that the dynamics have improved a lot and the overall sound impression has gained. I also like the redesign of the GUI. Thank you, dear developers!

I always heard this music here and there, in some films or documentaries about early rock, but never found the name or artist.

I'm not sure what you are looking for, but In the video you posted, Dusty Springfield introduced "Twist and Shout" performed by the Beatles. They performed their own guitar music.  The original release was by The Isley Brothers:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTaqn8_gMR0

Dusty Springfield was a wonderful singer, most popular back in the '60s -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osVaF4t-zFc

Rock on!

Twist and shout was also recorded by Brian Poole and the Tremelos, a rather dated British band from '63.  I used to like this version, but I'm now left wondering why . I won't inflict it om ou, but if you're really curious . .

I was mistaken... First version was 1961, by The Top Notes. Isley Brothers was 1962. That's the version I first heard!

A bit of "Wipe Out" with the Pianoteq Guitar

Incredible!

That was great  :-)

Your mp3 need to go to the demo page in pianoteq website.
If you can extend more that would be perfect.

May I abuse a little bit and suggest two more for the guitar add one???

Elvis turned a blues into a very cool performance:

Not bad for a bunch of boys sellected  from nowhere and who didn't really know to play or sing when they started:

  Maybe a short meddley of the 3 songs would help fit, since most are copyrighted.

I'm on vacation. I'm back in a week. 28.11 will be the end of the promotion. I won't be able to test it

No one else can test it for your particular tinnitus. It does sound smoother. I get mild tinnitus too.
Version 8 is no worse and no better in this regard for me. It sounds nicer though. I can honestly recommend buying it blind. The upgrade is only €29.
The upgrade is not in the sale, €29 is the normal price.

So... Now I'm not having tinnitus issues with this one, and the harsh "blue" sound that I described is gone.

It feels more realistic too at the same time, and the quality of the sound is cleaner and more beautiful. The midtones really evolve so much more pleasantly now too. Often a pianist will say that you can tell how good a piano will sound based on its midtones... the midtones now sound very good and the rest sounds great.

This is truly a wonderful update - the Steinways now give me goosebumps. Seriously, well done, major update.

Some people might find the sound a little dark too, but you can EQ it. The key is that the sound is clean and pretty like it has never been before.

Not sure if it's intentional, but something I've noticed on a lot of Steinways is that E6 is a little louder/more resonant than the notes around it... And this one actually has that quirk, which is pretty cool!

Hi, Opus32. I remember your problem. I also have tinnitus and have had exactly the same feeling since version 6. That's why I hesitated whether to update to the latest 8. Do your ears really not hurt anymore? Can I feel free to buy? Regards!

I'm not Opus32, but can't you try the demo for free?

I was talking about the guitar and drums in the opening of the TV  program.

Ok, I didn't understand.

That music is 'Wipe Out' by The Surfaris.
