I believe the real-world Ravenscroft 275 has that same configuration. Well, a guy (or gal, for that matter) should always keep dreaming, shouldn't he/she?Īs for the Blüthner in that video, what a superb long beauty that is 💛! I quickly noticed the parallel strings, which he later in the video points out. So now I'll have to expand my dreams to an even larger villa or small castle with a *huge* piano recital space 😋. At the same time, I am not automatically inclined to think that way when pianos are concerned, for it is a dream to have and maintain even one fine piano at some point in the/my future. Interestingly enough, when you think of it, it is super logical to seek those matches for superb musicality. As it seems, quite a few people on this forum do, actually. The notion of matching different instruments with different types/origines of music is also right up Gamma1734's street, he strongly believes in that as well.
No middle ground on this Thank you for posting that video. I think it is one of those pianos you are going to love or hate. I've consistently enjoyed hearing a Blüthner being played more than any other and it is its distinctive sound which I really enjoy.
One of the nice things about having virtual piano meet-ups, is you get to here so many different pianos. Like David, I really like the resonance of the aliquot string which is nicely captured by this virtual piano. I just want to keep playing the Blüthner. I like the Blüthner so much, that I am having to be disciplined at the moment to make myself practise pieces which don't work well with it and switch to a different VST. I copied my velocity curve over from the VC280 and that works just fine. I've not done any Timbre shift, smooth attack is on 25%. I bought the full version, I find I like the ribbon mic and the mid2 mic across the VSL range which means buying the full versions. I find the hardware demands of the Blüthner to be significantly less than the BI for example and have not had any crackles with it yet. The Blüthner definitely has a distinctive sound, and it would sound odd for some repertoire, whereas the Bösendorfer Imperial (BI) works across the full range.
