When Is the Black Friday Sale ?

Thanks for asking. I am anxiously awaiting, too!

Last year, Thanksgiving day was on Nov 23. This year it's on Nov 28th. I wonder if we'll have to wait until then??

Yeah, I'm anxious. LOL!!

Have been trying to decide which package, looking towards maybe the Pianoteq Pro... but... IF (big IF) the deals are good enough, I'm mulling over just going for the Studio. It's gonna have to be REALLY good, though. Not sure.

If I do go with just the Pro, I'm still not sure which pianos I really want. Kawai and Bosendorfer are a must. The other two, I'm not as solid on. I read opinions of others and both of the Steinways come up but the Bechstein, Petrof, and Bluthner are fairly frequent, and once in a while someone will mention the Grotrian or Steingraeber as being a favorite. They all have their interesting sounds... and if I went that far, I might as well just go ahead and get the Studio. I've also been told that the Classical Guitar is someone's favorite. LOL!! Decisions, decisions...

go with the recent releases. the newer ones keep pushing the envelope.

The sale is up!

Was hoping the Studio would be a little deeper, but it is what it is!

I tried to purchase... and my order seems to be stuck in cyber-purgatory.     UUGGHHH!!!!   I finally pull the trigger and nothing happens!

I wonder how long it's supposed to take for the bank (credit card) to process payment?

Then don’t buy them in the app

Payment went through! Downloaded, installed... and I'm gonna be busy for a while!

Lovin' it!!

Just went with the 4 newest pianos and have a feeling that'll keep me occupied for a bit. Mostly I'm back and forth between the Kawai and the Bosendorfer. Love those sounds.

Computer seems to keep up really well though I have seen what happens if it overloads. For me, that would take some "forearm smash" kinds of playing and that's not how I play so normal playing is just fine on the highest settings. It's odd that I didn't find that in the demo version. Either way, it's not a problem.

ETA;

And thank you Pianoteq support for sending a new link to get the payment stuff worked out. Obviously, it worked.    And I'm a happy camper!

Yes, I bought and installed Pianoteq Pro before I had to go in to work, so I'll be busy tonight when I get home.

I'm pleased that it installed overtop of the demo and kept my modified pianos in my Favorites section!

Suggestions Please!

For black friday Pro- what are the best 4 piano's that I should get? I play slow acoustic pop and ballad songs.

K2 Grand Piano
Bösendorfer Concert Grand 280 VC for Pianoteq
Petrof
Steingraeber E-272 concert

Any potential limitations with those above selections?

That is a really good point about the KIVIR collection. I forgot it.

I really like the K2 as its a blend. It will work great with effects.

Thank you so much for replying. I dissapeared due to some life detour. Now Im back with some good material!

Sweetwater have indeed updated their prices to match Modartt’s (truncating to whole dollars). The sale price will last just four days, which I suppose is the duration of Modartt’s Black Friday sale too. 36-month, zero-percent financing is worth a lot more than the savings from buying Pro, then upgrading, sooo…

As that great musician, Homer Simpson, said (possibly stolen from Archie Comics): “Yoink!” This and Steven Slate VSX Platinum headphones will be my early Yule/Chanukkah/Christmas/Kwanzaa/Saturnalia/Festivus presents to myself.

This concludes my “throwing around money I’ve not yet earned” for 2024. Thank you, Modartt.

Lovely! May Amun-Dyeupater’s beneficence reflect upon us the four heavens above and the five below, and also plenty of chocolate coins in our wooden shoes.

Gee, I wonder what ever happened to that Robert Allen Zimmerman kid… he wrote some pretty good songs too.

Perfect time for a vorpal snicker-snack. Mmm, candy bars!

Nice that you get parity, whichever older version you upgrade from. Nobody need feel left out.

I bought it! yay! Merry Christmas from my wife!
