Topic: K1 in v4 impressions?

I mentioned this briefly in my Norah Jones thread, but thought it was worthy of its own thread:

I have PianoTeq Play 3 and use the K1 piano religiously. Having tried the PianoTeq v4 demo, the D4 grand sounds nowhere near as good as the K1 to my ears. I love PianoTeq so much and got so much value out of my Play license, that I would love to support further development and upgrade. Which leads me to my question:

Does the K1 sound better with the v4 engine, as compared to v3? Audio samples, anyone?

Thank you, and have a great weekend!

Why not download both versions, then add the K1? That way you'll get the best of both worlds.

Must confess that I haven't done much with K1 in V4 really, but it is supposed to haven been improved soundwise, and further you have all the added effects - the better reverb, the amp, compressor etc...
so I guess you should be able to definitely get a better sound

cheers
