i unignored you pete, the forum hasn't been the same without its resident troll😂 and of course there's no need to use your other fake account anymore.
Pete14 I wanna know what restaurant this “guy” works at, so I can give it ONE star
i wouldn't worry about that troll, our restaurant is way out of your budget, you always complaining about 150$ vsts and how expensive they are, keep your money blah blah blah...
we have 400$ pastas on the menu here.
Pete14 Thanks for stretching my point, Pete, and making what I had expressed as a simple point, an extended rant about multi-tasking / modern conveniences. Let me take a break…
Pete14 Well, I have a message for you people, I come from a time whence people did one thing at a time,
the man (🤡) of the future is playing the classic gentleman role eh? that's nice 😀
Frankly, you’re starting to piss me off, Pianow!
And no, I’m not “Frankly,” but I do appreciate his insights!
P.S.
What kind of a scam are you running at that so-called “restaurant”; charging $400 for pasta!
You do know, Mr. Troll, that pasta was considered pedestrian and for the poor, and it wasn’t till some scam artist decided to up-charge for this basic “dish” that prices got out of control, but still, you beat the record charging $400 for a half-cooked pasta, and I wonder, does it come with a happy ending?
like i said : way out of your budget
so it isn't unexpected for me to see you complaining about the price you fat troll.
I’m starting to think you work at a brothel that happens to serve food, and not the other way around!
“Hello, Pianow, how’s it hanging?”
“A little to the left.”
“So, what’s the house special.”
“We have young & tender, old & wrinkled, and short & fat with a side of pasta, of course.”
“Okay, I’ll have the old & wrinkled so long as she’s not on a walker, and the pasta, of course!
I'm with @Pete14. People are too connected to their devices. They are walking around always staring at their phones oblivious to the world around them. I purposely never look at my phone when I'm in public unless I must answer a call. I pay attention to the world around me and the people in it. @pianow, put down the phone and cook Pete a good steak. 😀
God Bless,
David
Thank you!
And here I thought it a lost cause for a moment (trying to change/help these people), but the likes of Frankly & David (and CG, of course) understand where I’m coming from.
How do you like them apples, Pianow!
Pete14 Do you think Einstein would’ve cracked the theory of relativity if he’d been on the phone with his mistress whilst he worked on the advanced mathematics?
Actually, Einstein slept his way to that theory; the break-through came to him in a dream.
Pete14 And then we wonder why we don’t have people like Einstein anymore…….newsflash: you can’t figure out “The theory of everything” if you’re trying to do every single thing at the same time!
The reason we don't have Einstein's anymore is that academia does not like mavericks; instead conformity to standards is lauded, and education is valued above original research.
it's not your country you little troll, my homeland is quite religious.
QuasiUnaFantasia Actually, Einstein slept his way to that theory; the break-through came to him in a dream.
I’ll give you this, he was a lady’s man……you know what I’m saying? 😉

This!
pianow it's not your country you little troll, my homeland is quite religious.
So, you don’t have brothels (that happen to serve food) ‘round there?
And by the way, I want my steak well-done…..chop-chop (actually, no, not “chop-chop,” take your time; I’ll be right here waiting for it and a side of fries)……
I'm not texting while working, and there's no way i cook this hungry fat troll a steak😂
but i agree, I'm not the type who use their phone all the time, in fact i never do this when I'm free, but here is a different story, the only thing we can do when there's no work is coffee breaks and calls (texts and such)
but the most important thing is that in the autumn we don't get many costumers (not just us but most restaurants in the country) so we have more free Time.
Pete14 And yes, I agree with Mac, stop feeding this “Pianow” troll!
He shoots … and he misses!
I have Pianoteq and am probably going against quite a few opinions but I think it has got better with each update. However, these can sometimes be very small increments at times.
I actually use Pianoteq for most of my piano recordings these days because I feel I play better with this library. I prefer it to some sample libraries but I do still hear some synthetic qualities to the sound. This is gradually improving with each update though. If Modartt are able to get rid of the synthetic bits I would happily give up on sample libraries.
However, Pianoteq isn't there yet and the meantime I would like to get a new high quality library for my piano recordings that not only sounds better but also plays at least as well. This new VI Labs Modern does look very promising and I may end up buying this one.
dickiefunk I think the playability is certainly up there with the Modern D, and the sound, obviously, no question. It's an acoustic piano sound, much much better than PianoTeq. You can't go wrong with it.
Thanks David.
David Lai yes, great playbility, even with defaut velocity curve.
dickiefunk This new VI Labs Modern does look very promising
one of the very few qualities that pianoteq has is the wooden percussive attack, the only thing that makes me wanna play it sometimes (other then its great playability) is this quality that it has, i find the modern d to have that quality as well (which is rare in sampled instruments for example the most expensive virtual pianos like vsl and synthogy lack that specific rounded but percussive attack)
so when other pianos would drown and dissolve in an arrangement, the modern d would fly over it without any problems, even at ppp range it still offers a significant amount of weight, liveliness and percussive quality, it's not like the lower velocities are some quiet thin-ed out versions of the mezzo forte samples (like most piano libraries), they're alive and full.
vilabs people really deserve the name "audio engineer" and "recording engineer"
this piano is truly a masterfully recorded art (if you know anything about recordings you'd know how perfect it is)
