The default defense of Pianoteq seems to be that it has a multitude of adjustable paramaters, and that it sounds good in a mix. I also found Truepianos to be more alive and playable, which surprised me given all the talk about how Pianoteq is so playable. To me, Truepianos (Atlantis module) sounds like a good, high-end ROMpler piano, whereas Pianoteq has a synthetic quality to it that makes it unconvincing. ![]() In terms of realism, it's not even close: Truepianos over Pianoteq by a mile. ![]() I adjusted no velocity settings, and the only EQ adjustment I made was to eliminate any default reverb. It had been a while since I demoed them, so with fresh ears I put them head to head, testing each on a Casio CDP-120 and a Novation Impulse.
