What format??? What type of piano?

Soundfont? Go to www.hamersound.net

There are a number of Gigastudio, EXS or Kontakt format sampled pianos available on the web.

Cheers - bassically - i dont work much with midi - i tend to use it just for putting togeather song arrangments. But im looking for a grand piano sound that can be used in my final recordings, i dont have space for a real piano, and my piano playing likes the editing!

i think for about £95 you can buy the garritan personal orchestra. aswell as the piano it has alot of other instruments. i bought it myself after finding that the piano sound that i used in reason was too hard, i did a fair bit of research and found this to be the most authentic sounding piano.

right cheers for that, sounds ideal.

Does Cubase allow the use of Soundfonts? I really want to try to use this midi stuff myself, but I can never get anything to work right. I have Cubase, a controller, and some good piano sounds, but just don't know how to put them all together...
