Waves Grand Rhapsody Piano Reviews

Good quality and affordable - runs well

What else to say - I'm happy with the product!

Quite a hassle to install

This VST sounds good and has a good value for money ratio. But the installation was a hassle and reminded me of 1990’s programmes. You first need to download the program but then the sound library needs to be downloaded separately. After that you need to manually put it in the right folder. There is no explanation so it was guess-work. I am not sure if the iPhone generation would be able to do this successfully. I expected an easier installation from a modern day program.

Pros : good value for money, good sound

Contra : complicated installation

swindle

For each further update you should now pay 12 euros. If the PC breaks down, the serial number no longer works and you have to pay.

Incredible sounds. Not sure if it has continuous sustain pedal. Comprehensive interface but difficult to see. Have to rescale apps +/- screen resolution in windows 10 to see top toolbar. VST works in everything I've thrown at it; Reaper, Cantabile, Komplete. Sound library takes a while to load up on my i5 8250 inspiron 5000 laptop but cpu not overwhelmed by it. Don't spoil great sound with a mediocre soundcard; my next big buy!!

I would not buy it

Unfortunately I bought it and being software I am forced to keep it.

Sound is not good at all. Very short samples. Not natural decay. String resonance is linked only to damper. Not working when you keep the keys down without sustain pedal. Perhaps that is why the price is so low. In any case I feel I wasted my money.
