Topic: Piano and Electric Piano sound clanky, honky and bell like

I don't know why but very recently my Pianoteq has begun to sound very strange.
Both Bechstein and Steinway, all the available piano options have the same organ/pad like sound.
Electric Piano sounds metallic and bell like.
Anyone else have similar problems?
Can anyone suggest a fix?
Happens in both stand-alone and when used in DAW (Cubase Artist 10.5)

One cause could be if you have a something checked/ticked in freeze parameter. Even volume freeze parameter can have a big effect on sound. Uncheck any frozen parameters and then change pre-set.

Thanks Nick, my sounds are back to normal.
