It doesn't seem tio have any "real" sympathetic resonance, these is some sort of "global" resonance but you can't trigger harmonics from other notes (for example silent keypress). As I was looking for some input I found this thread and maybe someone has something new to come up with? There are some quirks that bugs me with the VSL.ฤก. I currently running a trial version ad it's quite nice but before I make up my mind it would be valuable to learn more about the Garritan dito since it seems very popular and also sounds nice from recordings I've heard. I'm deciding whether or not to buy the VSL CFX standard. So I guess my question is: which one has the most realistic sound and which one is the most "playable" in either a live or a recording setting, which one feels like the real deal? Please help! I'm close to the return period and the online demos aren't enough. I suspect using the Diskclavier to record the samples had something to do with the Yamaha feeling so natural and responsive. I've tried all of VSL's grands and to my surprise, the Yamaha is the one I like playing the most, yes, even compared to the latest 280VC, which I find too muddy in the medium register. The problem is it's more than double the price of the Garritan's!!! Is it worth it? There's no way to demo the Garritan and to me that's the only way to tell so that's why I'm asking you! I usually dislike Yamahas in general, find them too metallic with not enough roundness and wood in the sound but as a VST, it's really great.

I am playing with VSL's CFX's full library at the moment and it's really great. There was already a thread about this from a year ago but I wonder if, with time, people have had a chance to compare the 2.
