5.0 out of 5 starsAmazing
By John P. Kline on September 21, 2012

It was a pain in the neck to set up. Dealing with iLock was unpleasant, and I finally had to access it from another computer, download to the key, move it to my DAW and then, two and a half hours later, and after tweaking latency parameters, sample rates, buffer sizes, and the kitchen sink....... WOW!!! It is well worth it, because I now have world class piano sounds for my daw. HUGE improvement over my Yamaha digital piano, which now makes a fantastic controller for this software. So, if iLock is already working for you, then you're going to be off to the races in a fraction of the time it took me. The piano sounds are not oversold. Truly amazing... Seriously amazing. Piano only, but several excellent piano sounds, and piano with strings etc to choose from. I can't wait to record with this. I can see why Synthogy goes to such lengths to protect their intellectual property, because this software is pure genius. Worth every penny... Actually, with the quality of this product it's a steal... but don't let Synthogy know that. Boooo iLock. Yay Synthogy!

5.0 out of 5 starsAlmost the real thing
By B. Bonaventure on January 18, 2013

I've owned a recording studio and worked as a pro keyboardist and producer/arranger for the past 20+ years. This is the closest you can get to a grand without owning a real one. And I've tried a LOT of different options, both hardware and software.
In terms of studio work, it is extremely stable with Logic 9. Have never used it live. Loads fast, much faster than previous version.
Very responsive, great dynamics, beautiful highs, great blend.

5.0 out of 5 starsSurpasses my expectations
By John E. Pugh on December 27, 2010
I just received my copy of Ivory's Italian Grand II and I am very impressed with the sound and sensitivity of this instrument. I also own Ivory Grands and my favorite among those (Bosendorfer, Steinway, Yamaha) is the Steinway. My setup is Mac-based. I have a Mac Pro set up with a striped RAID array for video and Ivory pianos and I use an EMU 404 USB for the MIDI input. I use Bose headphones for playback.

The Italian Grand II blew me away. I will be spending many hours recording on this piano. The sound is magnificent. I have been waiting for 15 years for the technology to get this good. I am not sure if I will get better results from my 7ft 6inch Kawai grand but I will have fun comparing them. If you enjoy playing piano and you have a decent computer setup (external firewire 800 drive or eSATA or RAID array, 2GB RAM (or more) and dual processors) and MIDI keyboard, this product is a no-brainer. You're going to have fun - I guarantee it!

Rumor is that this is a Fazioli and I would not be surprised. I played a Fazioli once in a store and it is exquisite. This makes you want to take out all your music out and settle in for the day! Fantasic value!

5.0 out of 5 starsFantastic attention to detail
By Alex JB on January 22, 2012
For my piano recordings, I had been using the Yamaha S90 ES piano or EastWest QLSO Steinway samples. This easily blows both out of the water in terms of realism, customizability, and beauty. Every detail is present and customizable, including the piano's timbre, soundboard, damper and sympathetic resonance effects, subtle hammer and key release sounds, soft pedal samples, MIDI velocity curve, EQ, and reverb. You can also choose among four levels of the piano's lid height, from the bright, brilliant sound of a completely open grand to the satisfyingly woody effect of a completely closed lid. In addition, there are a few backing synthesizer pads to choose from, which I haven't used much yet but are a nice bonus.

At the time of my order, Synthogy offered an online service for trying the Italian Grand out yourself. You just click a link on their website, book a 25-minute session, then hook up your MIDI device or computer keyboard and play away. There was a slightly annoying lag, but it's enough to get a feel for the samples and I'd highly recommend it if the service is still available.

The Italian Grand comes with stand-alone software, but I have been using it as a VST plugin with Ableton Live Intro and it has worked without any major hiccups so far.

Can't wait to dig into this library more, as I know I've only scratched the surface of its potential.
