Re: Bach, French Suite No.2 Allemande

It is the distribution of notes that matters, yes, and you are controlling the tone color in various ways well. Our reference no 3 is still my favorite. Because, to my ears it doesn't sound like multiple pianos. And I’m sure when my friends are listening to no 3 (and I don’t tell anything about how many pianos are involved) they will say - a good piano.

But french no 2 have something that make me think of multiple pianos, though it's a nice sound.
How about to try to record several different pieces in different keys with the settings (pianos) as for no 3 ?
If the sound is good for all songs, it is a convincing piano. Anyway, I love that no 3 sound. Thank you k c Paul Li.

Best wishes,

I already have a fixed setting for the pianos, and manage to accustom myself to each track. Different songs are different, need to try them out one by one, it's a try-and-error task.
It takes time, but progress will go on.
