Topic: Suggestion on repedalling feature

It should be stressed that there is NO virtual piano can simulate repedalling and half-pedalling just like a real one, but pianoteq is an exception. However, repedalling feature cannot be turned off in pianoteq. I suggest that in future versions, a switch can be set to turn on/off repedalling feature.

Re: Suggestion on repedalling feature

Many virtual pianos have repedalling, Pianoteq just do it best. But WHY anybody even need to disable it?

Many virtual pianos have the feature indeed. However, a switch is also there. It's rather helpful if you turn it off when play pieces at high tempo. You can catch notes easily and mute the sound of previous chord just by lifting your foot and pressing down quickly. However, when you play on a real piano, it's quite difficult to keep a clean sound while catching all the notes which shoud be sustained. Sure, I admit that my pedalling skill is not very good:-). Even impossible when play at extreme high tempo. So It's an "advantage" of virtual piano without repedalling(just for people like me?), though repedalling is useful when play detailed music.

Maybe better don't play with with extreme high tempo. Better listen to the beauties of the music you play. You may need time for it.....

Re: Suggestion on repedalling feature

I think you should improve you pedalling technique rather than rely on such a dirty hack. Often in extremely high tempo it's better to not use pedal at all.

I guess some virtual pianos have repedalling/hald-pedalling switch just for CPU/disk performance reason.
