Damn it...

Ok, recommend me two... 1 for solo, 1 for extreme.

For temporal purposes, so to speak. I'll just afford something later on..

Pianoteque (spelling?) has its fans and a demo download I beleive.
Alicia keys have gotton rave reviews.
Ivory sometimes has bundle specials.

Structure LE may have some better sounding Pianos. Since I'm about to install the PTIEP I will check before I nuke it.

Have you checked Structure FREE? It's long gone here but I thought there was a couple pianos on that.

Maybe grab the full version of Structure used?

True, but if 1 HAD to be enough, Alicia's Keys might be that 1.

It's seems apparent that it's still too new to be on the radar of most people. This thing brings a new level of realism that nothing else (so far) has. I'd steer you towards some demos, but having heard the demos before I bought it, then playing it first-hand, I realize how difficult it is to truly judge this library based upon the demos. As is often the case with audio demos.

Eric I believe u on that but @ this point I won't take anymore pianos if they were given to me, unless they were given to me with FRUIT SNACKS

Even the REASON pianos are killer as they have different mics & positioning; then there are the great REASON SOUL pianos(those wonderful uprights) & the ABBEY ROAD pianos, & I hav Kontakt4, garritan, Motu Orch has some reallllly sweet eal deal Steinways & Yamaha Concerts; I don't even have Ivory installed anymore

I am using these...

http://www.native-instruments.com/#/.../alicias-keys/

And the Structure Concerto + Mini Grand

Tried the Ivory but prefer the Quantum.

I also use the White Baby Grand...
