Topic: Moody meditative piano

Hi,
it's been a while, but never stopped using Pianoteq.
I just recorded a short piece for video purposes, so I thought I upload it here too

I have Piannoteq 8, but noticed that more and more I turn back to version 6 for not that clean sound.
So this is Pianoteq 6 and Steinway + reverb...

Have a nice day,

Hello Filip,

Music can induce a meditative state in the listener. And for me this is such a nice piece. I tried to find a describing word for the piece, - reflective, thoughtful,  contemplative,  pensive… but can’t choose…

But I think it is deeply thoughtful, might be with a tinge of sadness too…
If I  meditated long and hard before announcing my decision about something, then I could have this music in the background…

Thank you Filip for sharing this. I like it. Bravo!

About the sound - I understand your liking of version 6. I have to say, I myself still like the sound of Ptq 5 - it is very soft. But I can make the vers 8 sound soft too, by changing the sound using all those possibilities we have, starting with the velocity curve.

I was searching among my many  recordings, and found several but not Ptq 6 with Steinway, but with ptq 6 October 2018, using preset Steingraeber.

Thanks,
I like felt pianos, some presets and all the goodies like morphing in the 8.
That's why it's great that we can run all versions on the same computer.

I like your video too, especially some passages were delightful to my ears

Cheers, Filip

Re: Moody meditative piano

A very intimate and heart moving composition!
I like the pianosound with this soft synthpad in the background!
Thank you for posting it!

You've created a really gorgeous, intimate yet ethereal soundscape with this piece—I really quite enjoyed this!
