I just purchased the Pianoteq Play version today, after trying out the free demo and really enjoying the D4 Grand Piano sounds, especially the honky tonk. But I can't find those sounds anywhere on the version I bought. Can anyone tell me how I can find those sounds?
Just click on the preset bar, a drop down should appear.
Scroll down to Grand D4,
All the D4 based presets should appear in another drop down on the right side,
scroll down that, the Honkers are near the bottom.
I agree, they are SO bad that they are SO MUCH FUN !!!
BTW, I am ASSUMING that you have registered/activated your copy of PTQ.
If not,,, I don't remember whether all those presets are available before activation, but you should activate your copy anyway.
Dandelion, you should first download Pianoteq Stage from your user area and install it: the Play version is from Pianoteq version 3 and does not contain the D4 Grand Piano. In Pianoteq 4, Play has been renamed to Stage, and the upgrade from Play to Stage is free during one year after the first activation of the Play version.
EDIT: actually, upgrade Play to Stage is free for all those who bought and registered the licence after January 1, 2011, see http://www.pianoteq.com/faq
Thanks to both of you for the information. But Mr. Guillaume, I don't see on the Pianoteq site that the upgrade is free. Under "Buy" I see it being offered for $39 -- is there something else I should know about?

You can find it in the FAQ: http://www.pianoteq.com/faq
and also here in the forum: http://www.forum-pianoteq.com/viewtopic...260#p20260
Just download version 4, install it and activate it, and you're done.
Mr. Guillaume - Thank-you very much. I have it installed and the D4 sounds wonderful ! Many thanks for your help.
