Default Need advice: Ivory grand or Garritan Steinway

Hi,

I would like to have some advice from those who tried the two (or one!) and know wich sound's the best in your opinion and wich work great in pro tools.

I will mainly use it for pop/rock songs (even metal in a project i'm doing now) so i wonder if Garritan Steinway could sound good in these applications.

My setup: osx 10.4.10, PT 7.4.2, HD 3 accel, 1.5 gig ram.

Thanks for your input!

Luc

You might also post this over the Virtual Instrument forum, might get a better response from musicians using the VI pianos.

+1 for Ivory. It's pretty damn amazing. Also, there are four separate Grands, and now four really cool Uprights to choose from.

All Ivory for me too. I use the Steinway and Yamaha the most, but the Bosendorfer sneaks in here and there. I gotta get the expanders one of these days.
