Sample Library Info

I'm interested in getting a nice sample library for grand piano, like this
http://www.postpiano.com/products/prod_subCategory.php?subCat=OLD+LADY

I'm using Protools LE, and also have IK Multimedia Sampletank SE and Reasons Adapted (came with PT). Would any of the formats they offer work for what I've got?
If not, what's the cheapest way of playing the samples? I'd like to trigger it using MIDI tracks within Protools.

Sorry if this question doesn't make sense, but I'm clueless when it comes to virtual instruments. Any suggestions to rephrase the question is welcomed. Thanks in advance.
 
not bad piano samples....still kinda sounds synth like though in spots (listening to Skylark demo right now)

i'm not sure if the formats they come in will work with the soft synths you already have. according to their comparison chart (http://www.postpiano.com/products/Comparison.htm) most of them work with Giga, Kontakt, Halion, and EXS24. There is one set of samples that works with "Virtual Instrument" which I'm assuming they mean any program that is a virtual instrument: http://www.postpiano.com/products/prod_subCategory.php?subCat=Bösendorfer+290
those ones.
i don't know....e-mail 'em maybe?

Will do, thanks Ben.

They'll never be quite as good as the real thing, but the samples do sound damn close. I doubt you'd be able to tell in a mix
 
true....
i'd just hold off on using them alone on Piano sonatas. you might get some grief from some classical pianists. :p
