(I am a highly practiced pianist and solo pianist performer for 57 years, an audiophile and recording engineer for 47 years. Synth sound designer for 40 years. I am ear/brain trained as well as a musician). (Use many different studio headphones, active and passive nearfield monitors and home stereo devices to monitor my recording mixes and to listen to commercial recordings). I don't understand why you didn't just make an evenly voiced modeled piano that the user could then adjust to their idea of the perfect piano, AND, to our choice in headphones and speakers and room. To me the classically tuned and voiced (by an extremely skilled technician) Steinway 9 foot Concert D is the ideal piano for a professional solo pianist, it takes strength to go loud which means you can relax into the keybed with strong touch at mezzo piano without going into forte sound levels and brightness. And evenly voiced. I bought my RD-2000 last year and have not been able to achieve that even voicing or even dynamic reaction. There are two keys that react completely different than the keys around them; MIDI notes D6 and D7. Both have very short decay rates compared to the keys around them. This unevenness cannot be voiced out with EQ or voicing parameters. It is in the Studio Grand first patch. Also, a filter made specifically for the modeled piano before any EQ or voicing parameters would have made voicing easier. And, the decay rate of sound is still too fast, much faster than an acoustic piano meaning I am still using much more sustain pedal than I would on a common high quality grand piano. The string resonance is there but so muted even maximum parameter settings still don't simulate a grand piano. And the soft pedal only decreases the dynamics and sound level, it does very little at muting the strings like an acoustic would. (pedal system is the Roland RPU-3). Last year, out of frustration of playing digital pianos for 40 years, I bought 3 88s. The Kurzweil PC4, Yamaha DGX-670, and the Roland RD-2000. (have owned dozens of digital pianos over the last 40 years). I live in a small apartment with many neighbors making an acoustic at home impossible, so the digital has been convenient, but not enjoyable in action or sound over the last half century. To my surprise the cheap Yamaha has been the superior piano out of the three I bought last year and dozens over the last 40 years. It only took me an hour to come up with the perfect piano for my headphones. By avoiding Yamaha's simple "Piano Room" parameters, you can go deeper with filter, EQ, delay, resonance, and reverb parameters. Where I have been working with the RD-2000 now over a year, and still no success. I was going to purchase the "German Grand" for $150 but I doubt it will solve the D6 and D7 key problem, so I haven't. What is going on, all these parameters and nothing to control the two keys that are disturbingly very short sustain. It sounds like I am making mistakes when these keys are used, and have not been able to fix it with the all the parameters available. I had the same problem with a Yamaha purchased around 1999. A very good piano sound and controllable keybed, but one note, the F7, had a digital ring that no other note had, after a few years this ring became so annoying that I sold it. One note, why would they let that go? Two notes on the RD-2000, why did you let that go? Will the German Grand patch fix the problem?

Is the V-Piano engine in the RD the same as the one in the Fantom?

At about 2:56 you say that PCM provides 256 voices. Should that be 128?

Ich habe einen Roland rd 2000 ex bestellt, er gefällt mir, es wäre schön, wenn ROLAND einen neuen BK 7m mit einem guten Displey machen würde, in letzter Zeit passiert nichts
