Topic: How to Rollback Pianoteq Versions?

I updated to Pianoteq v8.2.0 a day ago, and now my presets sound bad. It just randomly changed just now though, which is confusing since I updated it yesterday. But whatever they did, it's awful and I need to go back to the previous version. The new modeling doesn't sound bad, but my presets now do since the models changed.

Not all presets changed though. I own Steinway D and the Grand Petrofs. Steinway D is the only one that has changed, and its felt presets seem the same as before.

How do I do so?

Re: How to Rollback Pianoteq Versions?

If you're using Steinway D you may not need to roll back at all - the old Steinway D sounds are available as a legacy download. For more information, including how to have both the old and new versions of Pianoteq, see the following threads:

Sorry if I misunderstood, but where do I find the legacy download for Steinway D? I didn't notice it in those 2 threads you sent.

Also, if I use the legacy download, will there be 2 steinway Ds or will it just go back to the original?

Apologies, the info about the legacy version is in this thread: https://forum.modartt.com/viewtopic.php?id=11248 - specifically this post: https://forum.modartt.com/viewtopic.php...88#p995188
Yes, if you install it you will get both the old and new Steinway D sounds.
