Topic: C. Bechstein DG Recording 3 ”Thoughts 2”
I’m thinking carefully, on a melody. Slow and contemplative. Have never been in Paris…Allée des brouillards….
My first link in this subforum was ”Thoughts” (1) 11.06-18.

Very nicely done.
Interesting velocity curve. What keyboard are you using?

Re: C. Bechstein DG Recording 3 ”Thoughts 2”
Thank you so much, scorpio! I’m so glad you like it.
My keyboard is M-Audio keystation 88es. I don.t like it at all. It’s impossible to get a good velocity curve for it. Ptq calibration don’t give good result for it either. And it is like the black keys give louder sound than the white (subjective opinion). I’m going to buy a new if I some day have money. (Kawai Vpc or ES 8, like the auto-accompaniment feature, would be nice with Pianoteq sound.) But, 88es, one can play on it.....And, I have a ”heavy” playing style, can’t get rid of it….sigh..
Well, that’s what I think about it. Thanks for asking.

I have the same experience ... the black keys seem to stand out. This is one reason why I asked about your curve. I am unsure if it is my playing style, keyboard, or pianoteq. At the same time, I have not had a similar experience with another VST. In any case, I have modified my velocity similar to your's, so far the results have been positive. I am using a Kawai MP11.
Again, thank you and look forward to more of your work.
