Topic: The best PTQ has ever sounded on my system!

Just wanted to share this with you as I've never got PTQ sounding so warm and woody before. It's using the Close Mic HSClairedelune fxp that was posted here a week or two ago in Garageband with the free TAL reverb plugin.

I'm afraid my mp3 compressing have spoiled the sound a bit the original is more open and airy.

Gymnopedie

Oh I forgot to add it's not me playing, just a midi file I downloaded.

I dl'd your file from Pianoworld (hope you don't mind me using your first name, but it was posted there on the dl site).

I found an interesting rendition of this piece by a jazz pianist by the name of Doug McKenzie:

Look for Gymnopedie Medley.  It combines Satie's composition with "It Never Entered My Mind", by Richard Rogers (music) and Lorenz Hart (lyrics).

BTW - it sounds good.

That's an interesting medley and beautiful playing thanks for the link Glenn!

Useful midi to have too, so many sound wooden and mechanical.

Barry:

You are quite welcome.  I find his playing inspirational (although I'm not a jazz pianist by any means).

Another interesting one is his version of Beethoven's Pathetique (cantabile movement).

I'm listening to Eleanor Rigby right now.  Knowing the background to this song, I think DM's version is more descriptive than the original.

Thanks again I'll check those out.

Hi,

I would be very much obliged if you could offer me guidance as to where I could find the Close Mic HSClairedelune sound for my pianoteq 3.5. I have been using pianoteq now for a couple of months and I do like it very much although I have failed to get it to sound like a real piano (Probably my lack of editing skills). Is this file available to download and import into Pianoteq please?
Thank you very much in advance,

Niles

You're welcome.

Re: The best PTQ has ever sounded on my system!

Very nice thanks.
I have been having a blast with PTeq Pro. It is such a pleasure when an instrument inspires you so much you want to practice.
I am impressed with the noticable difference in terms of quality that Modartt has brought us.
I remember always wanting a Physically Modelled Piano w/the sos pedal and when I first heard PTeq 1.0 I admit it was disappointing. Then 2.0 was better, 3.0 was even better again and Pro is just the bomb drop IMHO.
It's the only instrument I record and perform with live that sounds as good in the 3 way IEM's at home as the powered stage cabinets.
Real nice job Modartt, and BazC,....you should be gigging somehwere Bro. Hopefully you don't hide out at home like Captain Nemo or something.....
I do fast 1 hour Piano gigs in between shows and here in Vegas and a laptop and a KS88 can make you an extra 7-800 weekly that Uncle Sam will never see......................hehe.
BTW Modartt, I do use the sostenuto on the Barrelhouse tunes....awesome...it's my 3rd hand live.

Thanks but that's not me, I did say in my original post that that's a downloaded midi not me playing. Sadly I'm very much a beginner!
