It includes chord identification, and the tuning section has become even more advanced with new tools. It facilitates your workflow by adding compatibility with the VST3 format and the ARM architecture (Linux version only, for example on Raspberry Pi 3 boards). These magnificent virtual grand pianos will appeal to all musicians in search of the most famous piano sound signature. Steinway & Sons have approved the sound and playability of the virtual instruments Steinway Model D and Steinway Model B, which have gained from the refined physical model. In addition to the Standard version, it gives you all the tools needed to work in a truly professional environment, letting you adjust 30 parameters for each note on the keyboard and work with up to 192 Khz audio. Pianoteq PRO is the most advanced version, adapted for the creative composer and demanding studio engineer. You can upgrade to the Standard or PRO version at any time. Stage includes the same instruments, sounds and playability as in Standard and PRO. Pianoteq Stage is the choice of the budget-minded musician who does not need to modify the sound. You can upgrade to the PRO version at any time. You can place up to 5 virtual microphones around the instrument and load external reverb impulse files. Pianoteq Standard offers unique powerful tools to enhance and modify the sound, such as changing the unison width, hammer hardness and string length. It becomes, more than ever, an immense joy to play.

Version 6 of the app brings numerous refinements in its engine and physical model, increasing realism and acoustic presence on all its instruments: acoustic pianos, electro-acoustic pianos, historical instruments and chromatic percussion. By omitting usage of samples, the file size is just a tiny fraction of that offered by other virtual instruments, perfect for use on any modern laptop. What makes the app superior to other virtual instruments is that the instruments are physically modelled and thus can simulate the playability and complex behaviour of real acoustic instruments. It can be used both in standalone mode and as an instrument plug-in in VST, AAX, and AudioUnits hosts.

Pianoteq is an award-winning virtual instrument which you can install on your computer (PC/Mac).
