I do not see point in pretending that something is great when it have lot of minuses. Im sorry I do not attacking anyones dream, just givinh some realistic and honest look into the problematic from my point of view. Yeah, I have to tune my console before recording. Meanwhile great 50's wood pianos from companies sold into global slavery to flog off **** pianos with a formerly prestigious name, are going for $50 around here. Do they even do sustain right these days, with the singing of the other strings? Does the soft pedal change tonal character properly? Do they even have soft pedals? Now see why digital pianos don't sound good? Although they have no excuse for poor sound into headphones, except that the whole concept is sterile, electronic mules. You can buy suitable good sounding preamps and amps in a megacity (not here) for ~$1000 each. I spent a year on a **** mixer making it sound good, and another year on the *****y amp making it sound good. For the lowest few notes to 40 hz, one needs another 40 lb subwoofer and another amp channel. They sit on poles above and surrounding the organ for proper projection of highs in the room. My PA speakers that make a close approximation of piano sound on suitable CD's, cost $600 each (new) and weigh 83 lb each. That's fine, the choices then become put up with it or sell it. And most people don't want to be engineering the sound. And in the end, no matter what you do with a digital piano it's sound comes out of speakers, the acoustic doesn't. And honestly that's all most people want from one or expect to come close to happening. Another thing about the digital is once set up it doesn't lose anything, it stays put over time unless I change it.īut ya, if you buy a digital, plunk it down in your living room and expect it to feel as rewarding as an acoustic to play and just accept that 's how it is then you will be disappointed with it. One thing about my digital setup is the dynamic range capability exceeds that of my grand piano presently, as the later could use expensive regulation. This isn't available with on board sliders, thus software. The digital takes tweaking to slightly out of tune, someplace around 75% in tune. I like my acoustic to be in the upper level of *in tune* and that takes tweaking because the nature of the beast is to beat itself out of tune over time. An acoustic that is out of tune and sounding ragged, nor a digital that is too pure and obviously digital sounding, not enough sustain, not enough sympathetic resonance. Pianoteq and Mixcraft both give me tools to overcome that. Digital is very sterile and that fact is obvious in the sound.
I didn't just accept the fact that how the piano came from the factory is what I have to listen to.
Pianoteq sound vs. acoustic full#
That's why I play through VST software, Pianoteq played through Mixcraft 7 where I have full studio control over the sound and use an audio interface.
