Chopin's Prelude No. 2 in a minor, op. 28, played on Synthogy Ivory Italian Grand Piano. One of my favorite preludes. I used to think this prelude was in e minor, since a minor only comes around as the last chord, but if you think of it as a series of unanswered questions it makes sense. Feel free to comment.

  • Hey, I'm wondering what you would have to do in order to minimize the delay between the key being pressed to the sound being outputted.

  • @Un1234l You need to use a low level asio driver to minimize latency. If you are using a generic sound card that doesn't ship with asio drivers, usually you can get away with a driver set called asio4all.

    Thanks

  • @bostonmoores Thanks for the reply.

    I'm wondering how the latency is for you? Noticeable? What sound card are you using? and why a low-level ASIO driver?

  • For this I actually used my on-board sound card, which I believe is just a sigmatel audio chip. I used the asio4all driver. Using the on board sound card and asio4all I had about 10ms of latency - which to my ears isn't really noticeable. You could probably achieve less latency with a good card and its own dedicated asio drivers. Asio drivers bypass the windows sound system so you can have direct access to your sound card. Thanks

  • hey im thinking about buying the Italian grand, it sounds like the real thing :D

  • I recommend highly. It actually took me some time to get used to the Italian Grand - but once I got used to it, I have a hard time going back to the Ivory Steinway.

see all

  • hi, I wanto to know if this pianos load into the ram or play directly from the Hard drive. Because I see Synthogy recommends a 7200 rpm hard drive. can you clarify this ? how big are these pianos when loaded for playing.

  • Free download link!!

  • After all the hype, I'm surprisingly underwhelmed by the sound of this piano. Maybe it's just the recording/music/performance.

  • @bostonmoores I was going to wonder why having ASIA4all would make a difference.

    Thanks a lot mate.

  • thanks for the tip i will be getting it soon

    :D cheers
