Press Reviews ' Certainly there´s no way, in a mix, to tell that a Studio Grands MIDI part isn´t a real piano recorded in a great studio. There´s not one whiff of artificiality. The playing experience is great too: these instruments feel alive, and encourage lengthy explorations at the keyboard. [.] There´s character, quality and flexibility in abundance in this new Steinway/Bosendorfer pairing.' - Sound on Sound ' A couple of hundred quid is not too expensive for a well-made instrument, but Studio Grands has two of them. Super detailed, super real, they sound amazing. A great double whammy of piano action.'

- Music Tech (Rating 9/10) ' I don´t think you´ll find a more comprehensive package. Certainly in all the many piano sample libraries I own, nothing has the versatility of this new engine nor the iconic sound of these two specific model pianos which really have been expertly captured and post-processed to perfection. This is definitely a recommendation!' - The SampleCast ' Both pianos sound absolutely magnificent, and contrast well with each other - the raw Bosendorfer being the weightier of the two, the Steinway having the brighter sound. Another fine addition to the Ivory II line up.' - Rated: 9/10, Computer Music ' You really cannot go wrong with these wonderful instruments' - Tony Cliff (T+S Blog) ' Dangerously realistic and a versatile one at that.'

As a piano purist myself, I would have no reservation using Studio Grands onstage or in the studio. It’s that good.' - emusician.com ' If you have a professional or home recording studio and you have been wanting to upgrade your library with high quality, realistic piano sounds, Studio Grands is a great choice. There are so many parameters and effects that you can control, it sounds like you are getting much more than two pianos.'
