Awhile ago i ask wat synth was the best to use to get the classical piano sound. I received alot of replies that synth wasn't the best route to undertake and that samples gave a better vibe.

So that being... can anyone point me in the right direction on getting hi-quality piano samples to use? ThanksX100.

Outdated or not, quality is excellent, and is not huge like some libraries wich are 60 gigas!

It depends on what you are looking for...

True "realism" any of the aforementiond products are great.

For something a little different..

I love the old Roland U220 piano. Cuts right through any mix, can be picked up for cheap too. Midi timing is a little dicy on it, but for simple piano licks in a club trck it's fine.

The U220 was the secret weapon for many a serious keyboardist for a very long time.

any old rompler should have a piano sound that you can make sound decent.

i made this with a casio. [[ LINK REMOVED ]]

i'm going to assume perfection isn't exactly your top priority... go get a freeware soundfont player if your sequencer doesn't have one already (try rgc:audio sfz) and load some free piano soundfonts in - www.google.com.

http://www.opensound.com/ has a free piano vsti... it sounds ok i guess...

they have a pay version called truepianos which is excellent imho... dunno how it compares to whatever everyone else here is talking bout tho.
