Really beautiful piece Dave. I agree the VST has a 'harp like' tone to it but I still think it nailed the listing. I would be interested in hearing it using another VST.

I redid the track using NI's The Grandeur piano. You can hear it on my Taxi page.

Hi David,

A bit late to the party on this one. The original version does sound a bit harp-like to my ears, or at least doesn't quite sound like a traditional piano. More so in the higher registers as has already been pointed out. Beautiful piece with either instrument behind it.

Something that occurs to me, sort of in relation to this - I think you can get too used to whatever piano sound you are using, to the point where it sounds "right" and everything else sounds odd if you use it for long enough. Hell, there was a time back there in the 80s when I thought my Korg M1 piano sounded pretty realistic! :oops:

Bruce.

Exactly Bruce. I was enjoying the slightly different sound of Una Corda and forgot that they might not want that kind of sound.
