Hi all!
There was just recently a discussion about pianos, I now bought the "Old
Lady" from pmi (post musical instruments) and I feel it's a nice opportunity
to give a very short review.
Btw. If you like it, until feb. 3rd there's a discount of 50%!
It's a Steinway Model D from 1923 sampled with 10 layers (10layer keyrelease
and pedal-down included). This all seems to work without a problem under
linuxsampler. It's available in gigasampler version 2 and 3. The gs2 loads
without a problem. They said, that the piano is bundled with IRs (Impulse
Responses) of its own body and of the concert hall, where it was supposed to
be. I doubted if I could use those. But wonderful: Even they work. The IRs are
sent as .wav-files. So you can take them and either process them in realtime
through Fons Adriaensen jace or in non-realtime through csound.
I just thought it might be nice to know, for I didn't know that much before
and would have liked to do so. btw. I tried using the piano with both
linuxsampler 0.3.3 and 0.4.0. It was both ok.
Kindest regards HTH.
Julien
