You are right sir. thanks for the welcome. I guess I meant to say it has given my Casio DP new life for piano sounds without having to have a beefy laptop to run the VSTi. Pianoteq, I just seem to be able to connect with and the new Steinway is fantastic.

Pianoteq gets my vote. It is one of the software that seems to be love/hate type of reaction. I am in the minority as I realize the weak points but I still love the way it responds to my playing. Also the dev team really has a passion for what they have created. You do have tons of control with the software in standard and Pro version. The new Morphing and Layering is nice to play with. Sorry Mike Martin but Casio PS5s piano sounds don't compare to Pianoteq. I brought the PX5s the summer it came out. Get keyboard for the money. Having Pianoteq IMHO gave the Casio new live as far as Piano sounds go. Now the Hex Layer in the PX5s is awesome! So when is Casio going to have a replacement? Going on eight years already.
