PianoTeq: '80s-Warm-Sounding Electric Pianos
Does PianoTeq emulate some of the 80s warm-sounding electric piano? Here are some of the examples in the video:

Some of the patches in his video sounded fatty and gritty in the low end of the frequency spectrum. Very cool; very funny. It's between 5:30 to 12 minute mark. I came across the video while looking at some videos on factory DX7 presets. But then, for electric pianos, I prefer some warm-sounding, soothing lows to mids and sparkly highs in an electric piano.

Re: PianoTeq: '80s-Warm-Sounding Electric Pianos
I think the Pianoteq excel at everything, the vibrahone is awesome, but install the demo,
it's quite playable. Anything one might find lacking, can be touched up with hexter, guitarix, rakarrack. calf.
Some subtle ampsim saturation, and an ambient Hexter layer or two, on a good EP, can make even raging hyenas
sing acapella without snarling and biting. Lots of editing to perfect a sound is built in.
Cheers

Thanks for the advice.
Gonna have to wait until I can build up my income and before I become too crazy spending my money on products like PianoTeq...

https://www.pianoteq.com/try The demo only mutes 8 #'s,
and must be reloaded every 20 minutes. Quite a few hits have been
done on the white keys, in three minute territory
