  • This demonstrates most of the presets of the new wonderful VSL Bösendorfer 280VC.
    The performance is completely unedited. I didn't even cut between the pieces - it's basically a concert!
    The presets are absolutely untouched. It's playing only - a video with my thoughts will follow. I think it's the "best" plugin I have now.
    Sorry for the slight glitches, I think it is unavoidable.
    The midi controller is Kawai E200 ATX3l
    If you don't have time to listen to all, try the PLAYER recordings first

    My all-time favourite❤ i love this thing, and this opinion comes from someone who only have the standard edition, i demoed the full version before and man that tube mic🔥💀 I'd give my right hand for that sound, i think I'm gonna buy it, the next time it's on sale, i love it more then any vi

    I’m so thankful to you for this video. I just need to upgrade my computer so I can have something that can run this. Excellent playing as usual, I like your expression and dynamics on the Ambience Surround to Stereo in particular. Would love to hear any original compositions if you have some video on that.

    At first I though: man what a nice sound, but it sounds off somehow. cant put my finger on what it is though, maybe its the soundstage and that the velocity sounds higher than you actually played it. Then I listened to the same piece in "surround to stereo" and was blown away! The Chopin nocturne sounds sooo good! Maybe its because it has more body and a more intimate sound, but who cares.. it sounds awesome

  • @paullaroche
    @paullaroche Před 3 lety +1

    I was always aware of the VSL capabilities, for me the new discovery is this Kawai E200 ATX3l. For some reason my 200 pound controller doesn't do the same with VSL at all. So that's how it is supposed to be used. Interesting. Dreyschock is still shockingly beautiful.

      I am indeed more than happy with it. I bought it without having any review at hand, although searching all the internet. I thought, even if the hybrid implementation is trash, I have my REAL piano at least.
      Well,... the digital component is AWESOME, better than any digital piano which I had so far.

    what are the note velocity levels like ? ive tried a few vsts and im not happy with the touch response. it may be down to my controller but a few just lack that real feeling when it comes to touch response. i really want a vst that is good for soft playing aswell as harder it sounds great.

    • @PianoScoreVids
      @PianoScoreVids  Před 3 lety +1

      The touch response is as good as it gets with this vst. The bottleneck is likely to be your midi controller or your playing at this point

    Thank you for great demo! I bought it yesterday and trying it out. It’s weird because I did some recording from my Yamaha p515 and in my headphones everything sounded perfect but in my recording I also hear som cracks like you have here. But that should not be because I had the headphones in the Yamaha and using usb midi/audio from computer to piano.
    How is your setup? USB midi to computer and recording in computer or via external audio interface? ☺️

    • @PianoScoreVids
      @PianoScoreVids  Před 3 lety +2

      Usb to pc and recording in the pc :) i recorded directly into obs which leads to crackles. Because i have to use a bad asio driver for that. Normally i use ultra low latency (4ms) driver , but then i can't stream to obs. Normally i record and render everything in the end. I did so with this video too, i had to replay everything several times because i got errors in obs. Very annoyed i thought i accept some ticks now just to get the video going!

    How is 280VC versus Garritan CFX in its close up mic "Player" mode?

    • @headsman2023
      @headsman2023 Před měsícem

      I compared them a few days ago (one close mic only) and they both sound excellent
      However the 280vc is more dynamic, and powerful, and due to its multiple releases, it's a more authentic buy for me

  • @ArgoBeats
    @ArgoBeats Před 3 lety +1

    Man, this piano sounds so beautiful, love the midrange... what do you think about playability? Does it play like the VSL CFX and Imperial? Did you edit the velocity curve? Thanks for the demo!

    • @PianoScoreVids
      @PianoScoreVids  Před 3 lety +2

      It's almost better. It's really next level stuff in my opinion
      However, the *maximal* velocities seem a bit lower than cfx or steinway. So, if you really need rachmaninov style ffff chords, you can choose that
      I used the total default setting, i.e. f(x)=x as mapping curve

    • @PianoScoreVids
      @PianoScoreVids  Před 2 lety

      pretty good, but not the best in the game (pianoteq ofc, garritan feels a bit better, but it's more a question of how the attacks of the samples behave.) if you play with a lot of room sound , it will feel "slower" but latency by itself is good
