I just purchased the new "Stereo Classical Piano" Qcard (price has dropped to $100 at Mars Music!!)and must say I'm not very pleased. I much prefer the "stock" piano sample on QS8 (Patch 00, Bank 1). I have gone through all 64 of them, and they all sound a little "thin/dead/fakey" (subjective, I know) to me, compared to the on-board sample. Also, some of them have some real glaring transition problems in the C4-C5 range. Unfortunately, Mars had no sample cards open for preview, so I hope they will exchange this for a different one. I'm wondering if anyone has compared the Jazz card to the Classical and what their thoughts were. If I can't preview it or get some input, I'll probably just get the vintage synth card. Any input will be appreciated!
