Young,
I'm glad you like the qs-8. But, whatever you do, do not buy the grand piano q-card. The gp-q was originally made for the qs6 which did not have the 8meg of extra memory for the piano. Your qs-8 already has the main Bosendorfer piano that the grand piano q-card was made with. The grand piano q does have a major selection of different timbres of pianos but you can manipulate the qs-8 piano patches to get the sounds you want. Now, the rest of the q-cards will compliment your synth. And the sounds are fully accessible from the card along with your internal sounds (no download time).
: I recently bought the QS8; it sounds great by the way. But with the keyboard came a sample CD with demos of the Q-cards. I sounded superb. Has anyone bought a Q-card, specifically the stereo-grand pianoCard? Is there really a difference between the Q-card sample and the internal stereo-grand sample of the QS8? I would appreciate any suggestions.
