![]() ![]() The Binaural setting is the same you can only select the default in Pianoteq Stage, but in Pianoteq Standard the Binaural setting allows you to edit the mic placement around your head. In Pianoteq Stage you can only select the default setting my understanding is that the default has the mics almost right up against the strings/soundboard - so you get mostly the sound of the Piano Model and not a lot of ambience. The 'Sound Recording' option in Pianoteq Standard allows you to edit where the virtual mics are placed inside the Pianoteq models. It would be interesting to hear what setting other people use in Pianoteq Stage and see if it solved some of the issues or if it made any difference at all. I’m not sure if my the binaural / headphone option is more realistic, but I haven’t played enough actual Harpsichords to know. I prefer the Sound Recoding option for both headphones and speakers. The binaural and room mic options sound kinda ‘meh’ to me with the electric pianos/organs. The line out stereo option is interesting because it models the pickups (mics) & line outs of the electrics pianos/organs. I’m not sure how realistic it is, but I like how it sounds. I prefer to use the Line Out Stereo setting with both headphones and speakers. The binaural setting has mics around your “headâ€, while the Sound Recording option has the mics placed almost up against the strings. I feel like those are the best sounding options in both cases and specifically with binaural / headphones the closest Pianoteq can get to the sound of an actual piano without sending the sound through an actual soundboard. I prefer to use ‘Binaural’ with headphones and ‘Sound Recording’ with speakers. If you need more than that, Pianoteq Standard would be worth a try, but I found that matching the basic mic placement options to the piano models in Pianoteq Stage went a long way to making it enjoyable to play. Generic and straight-to-the-point mic placement but still useful. In Pianoteq Stage the main way to change mic placement is the the drop down box of the Output area which lets you choose: Stereo, Mono, Sound Recording and Binaural. I agree that mic placement has the most significant effect on the sound quality, followed closely by the quality of your sound system. I messed around with the trial version of Pianoteq Standard but it was too much fiddling around for me - so I stayed with and am happy with Pianoteq Stage. The good side is that he obviously like Pianoteq stage and this is important first step to try further and second no matter that he have stage version he can install demo standard version beside it, just create new separate folder where to install demo version and it will work without problem. If that route is product, it will cost unfortunately. Bad side is more money for standard version, but where ever we go we also choose to better meet ourselves. Thank you for your kind words, really appreciate it. the piano vst addict :-) who has most of the available piano vst options out there. I don’t have pianoteq, never used a trial either, but would go straight at the standard version, because i have high regards for the likes of slobajudge. So in order to have control over the sound in a way that has the biggest impact according to many, one really should go for the standard version instead of play.īut since there is still a probability that the OP belongs to those few who don’t hear a big impact/improvement no one can recomment the upgrade for 100% This route makes it much more easy to find a setting to one’s liking i presume ? Slobajudge says that changing the mics has the biggest impact on changing the sound, which is confirmed at the various topics at the pianoteq forums. OP says he wants to be able to adjust the tone of pianoteq more to his LIKING. That I should upgrade from Stage to Standard to get more realism?īTW, coincidentally, a parallel thread started yesterday on Reddit's r/ piano, which is sometimes like PW except on some Counter-Earth. Please translate for those who can't read between the lines. Yeah I know it is funny and not much help isn`t it ?įor someone able to read between the lines it says enough :-) Put it this way, my basic answer is Stage is enough, but I am glad that I have Standard version. With standard version you can load different FXP presets and some of them are very good. For me, mics placement makes difference more than other settings. Nobody can give you that answer, you must try it for yourself. Depends how much you are sensitive for some details. ![]()
