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.

BOth are truly amazing plugins and yield stunning results. You'll hear more about Ivory as it's been out longer, however it is completely deserving of that praise. I must say that I'm impressed mightily with the Model D Pro from Garritan, wow!!! IMHO, it's really going to come down to what YOU want. The great thing is, you can't go wrong with either.

I really like Ivory too. Synthogy also recently released Ivory upright pianos which sometimes could be just right in a pop/rock song.

Ivory no doubt, - and also check-out the "Italian Grand" expansion, - its a great addition.
- on a side note, - this plug is just as stable as Digi´s plugs and run great and consistent. Nice Cheers |
