Mini Grand Instrument Sounds Different in PT v10

[John McDaniel]

I don't use this plugin on a daily basis, but I noticed immediately in Pro Tools v10.3 that the Mini Grand instrument sounds different than it did in PT v9.x. Anyone else notice this? Another engineer at my facility noticed it right away, too. It sounds duller, less focused --like the high end is rolled off.

WTH?

Make your own preset, save it. Then test that preset on both 9 and 10.

Still a difference?

Oh man !! CANT BUT AGREE MORE !! I thought I had a problem with my new monitors ... Mini Grand used to be my go to plugin when it comes to Piano back to the days of Pro Tools 8 ... I recently got myself some genelecs monitors and wanted to record a piano track ... when inserting Mini Grand I did notice the sound of any piano except the "dance" one which is actually very electronic and unrealistic to be so DULL (no brightness whatsoever) as if a low pass filter is placed at all times ...
Thats what I did notice anyway so I did post some topics about finding a better piano plugin

I'll try that next month when I have an HD v8 road rig up and running. Right now, our main HD systems are running v10 and the v9 licenses were surrendered during upgrades in January.
