Hi, Olivier!
Thank you for sharing your presets. Yesterday, I tested your previous patch and I found it very playable, so congrats for your excellent work. However, I find it extremely dry so I personally add a couple of surround mics to feel it more wet and nice; I will use it often. Thanks again.
What is this fix about?

Hey Stephen,
I'd love to try your preset. Unfortunately it doesn't load for me (it says "Could not load "Steinway 1"). Does anyone else have this problem?
Try this one...

Hi! Does anyone have a nice, natural player perspective for the Synchron Bosendorfer Imperial Full Library? I'm on a Kawai VPC1. Thanks!

This is a variation of the Player Surround to Stereo downmix. I've added a custom EQ to each mic along with a few other changes.
God Bless,
David
Thanks a lot David!

To whoever is interested, I'm sharing my patch for the Bosendorfer upright (full library).
As an owner of an actual Bosendorfer 130CL, I was never satified with default player presets in either the Standard or Full library. I thought they were just not making justice to the actual sound of the 130CL.
So, after spending many hours playing with all the mics and tweaking EQ, I came to a preset that I'm actually satisfied with. Enjoy!

Wow, that's practically the opposite of my own preset, so it's a welcome addition! Thanks for posting!
Of course, mine was specifically designated for use in a reggae context, but I'm looking forward to trying this bright preset vs. my dark one.

I finally found the Best Velocity for my Steinway Hamburg that I love!!
I have Deeply researching it for a month and here is my method.
*PROBLEM
VSL Steinway on Default Velocity Curve, I kinda hate how it sound so hard.even thouogh I play pianissimo. Unlikely CFX, I kinda love CFX response feel.
*SOLUTION
1.I need to find out how many Layers they really have by using Fabfilter L-2
and I got 60 Layers (Silent key included)
2.Make it True Linear by X = Layer*100/60, Y = 100-(100/128*midi signal)
3.I load the Velocity Preset on CFX and play. WOW it more response But Steinway's response feel still so hard.
4.I use MIDISHAPESHIFTER to curve the True Linear by reference from CFX.
5.I change The X to make it curve like SOLUTION 4.
at first try, I don't even trust that I made it so I leave from it for a moment to rest a bit,eat some snacks and play it again.the resource still unbelievable!!.

How can I apply this curve to the piano player? I'm struggling...

Hi! A right-click into the Velocity Curve Editor allows you to save/load/reset curves.

Thank you so much Andreas! It helped me a lot. Now I'm really happy to be able to enjoy the instrument properly. It's amazing!

man i love this instrument, whenever i hear the sound of this beautiful masterpeace, i fall in love with it like it's the first time i'm hearing it, thank you for this experience, the music/playing was fantastic 😊
I think the velocity curves correspond to the type of keyboard used, more than to the piano itself.
It would be necessary to know the weight exerted by the robot for each of the recorded velocities fromm PPP to FFF
The best method would be to pass each type of classics keyboard under the robot to define there own velocity curves.
by creating a database with classic keyboards (sl88, Arturia etc...), we would have a more accurate rendering of their responses in relation to the weight exerted by the robot for each velocity (see each keys...).
