Has anyone tried the CVPiano?

Has it been discussed on the forum pages?
It wouldn't load on my Windows 7 PC.

Re: CVPiano
Try running it in XP compatibility mode.
Hard work and guts!

Re: CVPiano
I listened to the demo - sounds like crap.

Re: CVPiano
I don't like the sound too.
But looks like they are working in many instruments and not just piano. I supose that just basic small samplers with a some filter (like scipts on earlier libraries)
Most new "promises" on digital piano field today have a lot of retrocession, since they just get small samples amount, try to put some filters, create a lobby to say it's a high-end compact morphic or "modeled" filters instrument.
Some things can look like, but will never be a really good option.
Unless you had a huge youth imagination...
And to put a skilled cool guy to play something also do not make a poor product better or nicer
Hey, pianoteq 4 it's taking time... I bet they have very nice surprises waiting for us.

That may very well be the same piano that was used for Gigapiano 2, which ran under Gigastudio 3, and sometimes came packaged with it . Tascam owned the Gigastudio technology after Nemesys, and now it's owned by Gary Garritan. Some useless information for you all

Re: CVPiano
I found it interesting that new ways of playing digital instruments are being employed, moving away from mega gigabyte samples. I wondered how it compared to Pianoteq's approach.
This is what there website said:
Continuous Velocity Piano is based on spectral morphing. Eliminating the need for many bulky, discrete sample layers, spectral morphing technology produces continuous, spectral variation by processing only a single baseline sample velocity.
Using the baseline as a starting point, the spectral morphing filters then dynamically interpolate frequency characteristics, which can then be continuously morphed during and after musical notes are played. The result is far greater musicality with over ten times the amount of dynamic expression.
PS: Thanks Evil Dragon the XP tip. It didn't work, but a good addition to have on my windows 7 set up.
