Modartt have announced the release of an update to their modelled piano. Pianoteq version 2.1 now includes a new preset, C2 concert, bringing an improvement of the piano model at fortissimo and increased dynamics. They say that there is now a more biting edge in stronger passages. Sympathetic resonance and harp resonance with partial pedalling are also improved. A genuine RTAS version (Mac and PC) is now available.
The company has also launched a competition whereby you have a chance to win a Pianoteq license by composing something performed on Pianoteq. This can be on a trial version of Pianoteq – you don’t have to buy it beforehand which would miss the point of the competition somewhat… The rules:
anyone can participate
one entry per contestant
instrumental music only (solo, ensemble, orchestral)
any kind of music genre
performed on Pianoteq 2.1 (trial or full version)
no other instruments than Pianoteq is allowed in the recording
You can upload your entry (MP3 and/or MIDI file) anytime up to August 31. Voting starts on September 1. The winner will be announced on September 16. Pricing and Availability:
Pianoteq costs 249 Euros
