Piano needs noises, inharmonicity and other defects to stay a piano I think. Try to eliminate the hammer noises with pianoteq and you understand that it is an indispensable part of the sound. The piano makers certainly tried to eliminate all these defects, which led to modern pianos, but fortunately they could not eliminate them all. I think that the singularity of the sound of the piano is a formidable alchemy between the quality of the conception and the control of the intrinseques defects which make this so particular sound. So, I'm investing some time trying to point out more constructive bits that are missing.īasically, I hope soon that Pianoteq is indistinguishable from a real recorded piano with the highest fidelity, though right now it's the closest and most people probably can't tell the difference. That room has great resonance, but there's an unmistakable sound to a live piano, as well as a recording that I feel isn't exactly captured yet, but Pianoteq is the best I've found at capturing the sound. In addition, the reverberation is noticeably cleaner. You might have to close your eyes a bit, but it's clearly the overtones and resonance of the cabinetry of the piano itself reverberating throughout the room. here I can pick out a lot of very high overtones past the 8th. pianoteq, and that's a difference in the resonance in the wooden tones of the piano. That's one of the big things that I notice about a recorded piano vs. I'd also specifically look for some touching up on some of the existing pianos, adding to the base sympathetic resonance without getting too many high pitch/buzzing overtones when you increase it. I find the current set to not really quite hit that clean, crisp sound of a super nice one yet:
