Pianoteq 8 has been released for iOS

CyberGene

Just stumbled upon this news. You know my stance on PT but I know there are people who will be interested, so I'm sharing it 🙂 It's free to download with some limitations and there are in-app purchases for the different models. I downloaded it but I doubt I will test it soon, since I believe it's exactly the same as the desktop version. However there are currently not many virtual pianos on the iOS because the app size (samples) can't be hundreds of gigabytes and AFAIK none of the currently available sampled pianos for iOS supports re-pedaling and half-pedaling, so Pianoteq can be a great option for people who use an iPad for live playing instead of a laptop, due to the small footprint and good playability 👍🏻

Now all that rich, woody, resonant Pianoteq goodness is all mine in a very portable and silent form factor. Eat your hearts out sample lovers ….. 🙃

Hard to deny that 👍🏻 So, if you own a license on the desktop it’s free for you on iOS? 😲 If that’s true, kudos to Modartt!

Or, to put it another way ...
A billion cell phone users can now suffer the same awful sounds of Pianoteq that have annoyed PC users for a over a decade. 😄

They’re having an iOS release-party over at PT, and they asked me to invite Mac & CG to “talk things over” (their words), but I’m not sure you two are ready to discuss anything yet; so I wonder, perhaps by PT-10, if you two would give them guys a chance.😆

MacMacMac the sample-sheeple wouldn't know a good grand piano if they were wacked over the head with it. 😉

Just installed it on my iPad Air 2 and it works pretty decently!. I have quite a lot of instrument packs (8) on my desktop version (8 Standard), which have transferred flawlessly to the iPad 🥳

BTW performance index is 33 on this old iPad

Great!

I thought I liked the Bechstein on Pianoteq for a while, but when I listen to my recording I still think Pinanoteq is missing something…..it's just off and I really can't use it……
