One of the reason I love Korg arrangers.

(Don't try this on a Yamaha or Roland arranger. !!)

Ahh yes, that would be the handy work of Rob and myself. I did all the sampling and Rob did all the PCG Programming and Demo's.

Best piano ever for an arranger, even if I say so myself.

James.

Listened to the Irish Grand Piano Demo 1 . Assuming the 'annoying background sounds' I hear are simply artifacts of MP3 compression and not heard otherwise, the Irish Grand sample itself sounds absolutely fantastic. Really appreciate that every piano note includes 4 different velocity samples.

Btw: what make/model acoustic piano was used to create this impressive Korg audio sample?

Bravo to both James and Rob.

That would be the mic used for the voice over in the demo. Rob recorded everything directly on the Pa2X live using the built in Mp3 option of the keyboard. So it's going to pick up some noise from him actually playing and moving around.

Thanks, yeah the 4 layers make a world of a difference. The response and dynamic range is really wonderful.

It's a Yamaha C3.

How do you compare this to the VST "Acoustic PIano"?
