James.... what about the P Creek file burns you? On the better sampled pianos, it sounds amazing... On lesser ones, perhaps not so much.
The midi files has no real emotion to it. It's just a barrage of notes in an effort to get through the song and to the end. The type of classical tune it is doesn't help matters either.
I have a feeling that quite a few piano sample makers cross over the bright samples too low down in the velocity range, in an effort to get that mix cutting sound.
Maybe for on-board factory keyboard sounds as memory is limited, but not professional sample libraries. A pro library will usually have 3 or more layers.
My Piano above has 5 with each stereo sample only stretched 1 semi tone in either direction from the root note.
The P Creek file really shows this problem up, as it truly DOES use the full dynamic range of MIDI.
I've spent god only knows how many hours listening to this tune and I don't agree. I find it a heavy handed performance, and quite honestly I hate the tune at this point
Maybe that's my problem, I've heard it too many times
Regards.
James
