Best alternative to Mini Grand?

[lampmusic]

I'm noticing from several posts that there have been some issues with Minigrand in PT12?

What other affordable options are people using for piano?

[Stephen Bond]

I'm using it pretty much every day without issue.

I use a few others, some from NI and such but to be honest I could probably live without them all save Mini Grand.

Are you having issues or just is it just a preemptive question?

We are trying to prepare for an upgrade from PT11 to PT12. We use minigrand and hybrid frequently in our projects.

We are just trying to make sure there are no surprises :)

Hey, since we're talking about piano VIs, something I've been wondering...

Is there a piano VI that models the Bosendorfer 290 Imperial Grand? Complete with the extra keys? And if so, is there a MIDI keyboard that has those extra keys?

To Justice, Ivory II has the Bosendorfer as well but I'm not in front of my computer at the moment so I'm not sure if it's the 290 or not. I do remember that it does sound awesome though. I'll check tomorrow and let you know.

synthogy.com - Ivory II Grand Pianos (77GB) has the extended low octave too

It is indeed the 290 Imperial Grand with extended lows
