Ableton does not support 32 bit anymore. That's why you can't use it in Ableton

You can!!!! with a program called Jbridge, this create a fake 64bit dll.

Not showing up in Reaper no matter what. Tried three folders, all listed in preferences, scanned/ cleared cache and rescanned, restarted project, restarted application. Nowt, nada.

Worked flawelessly for me in Reaper. I just put the dll File in my VST Folder...

Désolé d'en décevoir plusieurs d'entre-vous : ce plugin n'a rien d'un piano ! mème après correction. Médium très peu naturel.

It has no settings but is a beautiful and lightweight piano.

Can't seem to load this in no matter what I do. My DAW just can't find it.

Simply one of the best free piano VSTs out there as far as sound goes. Only thing is, there's no settings. It does work with my sustain pedal however. Other than that, if you're looking for simplicity and a purer sounding piano, then this plugin is it.

This one is as nice as simple. Very natural sound which is so hard to find. I wish this would come in a more complex form. Ps it is hard to trigger in a regular midi controller, but need to try this with heavy keys controller, I'm pretty sure will improve the performance!

In many daws (like Reaper) you could add a velocity plugin before the piano to scale your velocities and make it more responsive, just in case you hadn't tried it!

Great tip, anonymous, that velocity plugin works great to add that human feel to playing / velocity, etc. I find that I can use this piano very well and the velocity variations are quite natural, as it plays loud if you hit hard, softer if you hit softer... lovely clear piano that never comes out sounding "machine gun" regarding velocity.

A basic piano good enough for ambient fill. Problem is it can't be tuned so it will be slightly off with most recorded guitars unless you tune to the piano first.

I don't find this out of tune with other VST instruments and I have used it with plenty of different VSt instruments. The only bad thing I can say about it is that it does not cut through a "noisy" track - that is, if you have a track with lots of instruments and drums, etc, it doesn't not cut through as clearly as some VST pianos. But on it's own or with quieter tracks, it is sweet.

Love this VST, beautiful piano sound, great stereo picture (low notes to the left, high notes to the right, all others in between). No reverb, so add a little reverb in your DAW to make this really sparkle. Safwan - thank you for this wonderful VST :)

Sorry for that, but this piano is only mono - nothing stereo, so where is your point?

@PianoBoyReply - sorry for the late reply, only visiting this page for first time in ages. My copy plays in stereo. Lower notes to the left of the stereo picture, higher notes to the right, and notes in between.. well.. in the middle ;) I don't know why you are only getting mono sound.. I have used this VST in both Audition 3 and in Reaper and it is stereo in both. It also has different velocities, so hit the keys hard, you get loud sounds, hit the keys softly you get quiet sound, and variations between depending on how hard or soft you play the keys. I hope you can figure out why yours is mono, because this is a wonderful piano.
