Because we've talked about modeled pianos here in the past, I was 
interested to discover a commercial product called "PianoTeq".

Free trial here:


I played it for a while. My impression is that individual notes sound 
terrific, but there are problems (to my ear) in intervals. The beats are 
un-natural sounding, and a minor 2nd warbles in quite an un-natural way. 
The other intervals are not attractive either. Thick textures are very 
"cloudy".. not transparent, i.e. notes inside the chord get lost in the 
mud.

Maybe it's just me.

One of the things reviewers are remarking on is the relatively tiny memory
footprint of the software. It only requires about 20MB of disk space (I
believe), and can operate within a 128MB memory space.
Many of the sampled pianos available (besides being extremely expensive)
require many GB of disk space. I haven't personally played it, however.
