OK problem solved!
I compared my settings in Pianoteq 7 and 8, and in Pianoteq 8 internal sample rate was set too low. After I put there the same value than I have in Pianoteq 7, my harpsichords seem to sound just perfect also in Pianoteq 8.
So thank you very much for your advice!

Did you check the settings?
Sample Rate, Polyphony?

You gave me a freight as I've got the Ruckers but didn't have a chance to try after the upgrade. Glad that your problem was sorted

Make sure to turn off the freeze button before changing the instrument and check if you got any extreme effects like fuzz going.

For me Pianoteq 8 does not work, because with my laptop harpsichord sounds have become totally different from what they were in Pianoteq 7 and I would not even recognize them being harpsichords anymore. It is the same with Ruckers, Blanchet and Grimaldi harpsichords. I use ASIO4ALL. I still have both Pianoteq 7 and 8 installed - with 7 everything still works great and obviously I am using it instead of 8.
