However… I have to say that my favorite is. I understand what you are saying about the CFX, Fatis, I had the same feeling. If I understand well, when I look the robot video, short notes are also recorded (I wonder how the engine can handle this…). We don’t have details but I’m curious about the mapping. We can spend hours and hours to explore all this… I’m always impressed, for example, how the delay parameter (even a little tiny 0,20 ms, or even less) can metamorphose a preset from a flat and dead thing to a wide and alive sound. No need : the Synchon stage sounds gorgeously.Īnd all those mics and mixer parameters give sooooo much possibilities. And also to the natural ambiance : I never use the processed reverb embedded (or any other one). I think it’s due to the massive samples recording for each keys : it gives so much realism, particularly with staccato and repeated notes. In one word : I just play better with them. To resume my feeling about those beautiful Syncron pianos : pleasure, pleasure, pleasure and pleasure. (It looks like a Ferrari vs Maserati battle !) So finally I loved the Steinway D last update, but Yamaha CFX is my favorite one. superb uniformity across the whole range. There is something so perfect and well balanced in the Yamaha CFX Synchron Piano, that still surprises and captures me every time I play it. In real life I also always loved the Steinway sound more than Yamaha, but with the Synchron Pianos i have to say the opposite: It has lost a bit of caracter, but at least it is now in line with the Yamaha, and you may play them in sequence without a big change or excessive need of adaptation.ĭespite the improvement, and despite the fact it is a pretty nice piano, still I can't join the number of Steinway's fans and Yamaha detractors. it had something hyper-realistic, weared, like an old consumed instrument, and I found my self for a moment back in the 90's playing the old Steinway of my Conservatorio, in the empty auditorium hall.Īfter the last update, the instrument is back to a more equilibrated and fine sound, still bright but no longer excessive. perfect recording, amazing sound, but loudly metallic and out of control, compared to the perfect balance of the Yamaha, but I had a pretty emotional and nice flashback.
The first feeling with the Steinway, as other reported before the update, was of love and hate, wonder and blame. I had a pretty good experience with the Yamaha CFX Synchron Piano: the quality of the sound, but even more the nice feeling of playing it (with a 88 weighted keys piano controller of course) was stimulating me to buy something more, and I decided to buy the Steinway D as well.
