TY Justin and Lee!Justin, I have classical training, so no matter what, I always go back to that sound. What Im using there is the Steinway sound from E/WQL silver, after following Dave Walton's advice here over a year ago. It doesnt sound bad but man, that Ivory....

Have you ever tried recording it? This piano sound you're using is pretty good, though it seems like the dynamic range is a little narrow. And the tone of the piano isn't changing that much from soft to loud. But hey... it's a forward!

A grand piano? Nah! I dont even have a piano, just the keyboard. I know what you mean, but I find myself between a rock and a hardplace. If I do it midi,doesnt have much color. If I record it like audio, then it sounds artificial ...

Congrats on the forward, brindabella! The first one reminds me a bit of Rachmaninoff.
