The new Piano Sounds

Hi,

haven't tried the Romantic Upright so far, but the announcement at Nord (http://www.nordkeyboards.com/main.asp?tm=Home&chm=Namm) of
*2 new Rhodes
*a new Steinway model D sample setand
* more Uprights

are indeed thrilling, let's see what "first quarter of 2010" means. Personally, I prefer the Grands over the Uprights so waiting for that one.
Enjoy
Johannes

EDIT: Tried the Schimmel out now and indeed it is really nice, more warmth than the Blue thingy..
But I have a serious concern with all the Uprights I've tried out so far including this one: I find them a bit too "Honky-Tonky" as if I were using the Detune setup with two sounds. This gets worse if I turn on the MONO Mode (I play Mono only). So maybe it is a Mono or Amplification problem?? Will see, but other than that I really like the Schimmel, if it were not so honky (my Upright (real one) is not at all soundsing detuned even after 3 years without tuning).
