Pianoteq news
As a Christmas gift to all Pianoteq customers, we are glad to offer a cimbalom add-on, the latest addition to our KIViR family of virtually restored historical instruments. The instrument, of oriental ancestry, can be regarded as the precursor of the piano.
Christmas is approaching, so we will for that reason give away 60 rebate coupons with values from 50 € to 100 € each. Just answer a few questions to participate in the lottery. You can use the coupon for purchase of any of our products on this site. Participate here before December 17.

We proudly present the brand new Rock Piano add-on (YC5). It is developed to meet demands for a specific pop/rock piano, modelled from a famous Japanese grand piano, frequently seen on stages and very much appreciated by touring artists for its musical qualities and reliability. Its bright and vivid tone makes it addictive and cuts through elegantly in pop/rock oriented mixes. It is embedded as demo instrument in the latest Pianoteq update 3.0.5. More info and audio demos here.
We are proud to present our brand new commercial add-on: Vibes, featuring two beautiful vibraphones! Both are provided as embedded add-ons and included in the latest update 3.0.3 for demo evaluation. More info and audio demos here.
We have today released update 3.0.3 of Pianoteq. Changes include a new model for the Vibes add-on and a native Linux version. Customers can download the update from the user area.

An update 3.0.2 is available for download in the user area. The trial version is also updated. We have made some minor modifications to the C3 instrument sound: more punch in fortissimo, slightly longer notes and slightly longer harp resonance.
The MODARTT team is glad to offer to all Pianoteq customers a free add-on made of Easter bells coming directly from Roma! (following Easter tradition in some European countries)...
Actually, it is a virtual copy of bells and carillons that were recorded at the European Bell Institute.

At the Frankfurt Musikmesse on 2 April, Pianoteq 3 was to our delight demonstrated in front of an audience at the TT Audio booth by the TT Audio marketing director Peter Schlossnagel and the pro keyboardist Robert Karasek. We are thankful for their very nice improvised demo and support.
