Pianoteq 9 introduces new levels of realism and responsiveness through refined modeling and soundboard simulation. The engine calculates every vibration, resonance, and harmonic detail as you play, recreating the experience of a real acoustic instrument. Its ultra-light footprint and low latency make it ideal for both live and studio use, offering instant startup and fluid performance.
The software gives players access to a wide range of instruments - from modern grands to historical pianos - each modeled with physical accuracy. It supports microphone placement, morphing between instruments, and advanced effects to create immersive sound environments. Every aspect of the sound is generated dynamically, making Pianoteq 9 one of the most natural-feeling piano instruments available.
Its modern interface streamlines workflow, making complex customization simple. Pianoteq 9 fits seamlessly into any production setup, providing exceptional tone with minimal CPU load.
The Standard version adds powerful creative tools like virtual microphone placement, instrument morphing, and external impulse reverb. It's ideal for musicians and producers who want expressive performance with detailed control. Pianoteq Standard blends realism and flexibility, giving you studio-grade options while staying light and intuitive.
