For a project, I need to replace the Disklavier have been using with a VST (no budget et cetera). Now, with te Disklavier I always left the pedal depressed to get sympathic vibrations, with a VST that will not be possible. However, I would lik eto get as close to the real piano sound with the resonances as possible. So: I will need a decent VST. Any suggestions on which one to use?

And perhaps you could fake a soundboard with a bank of [reson~] objects?

Some free, some not.

I think Pianoteq is your best bet, couple it with PSP PianoVerb 2.

Pianoteq, full stop. The Standard version should meet your needs unless you want some kind of non-equally-tempered tuned prepared piano [the Deluxe version gives you control over every *string.*].

Yes, pianoteq 5 is amazing. However, make sure you go through its calibration setup so that it adapts to your playing style. That makes quite a difference to the results

I got the impression the OP was after something inexpensive/free Or did I misread?

there are about 80 commercial and 30 free ones on the market at the moment, and it is very hard to recommend something. pianotec is nicely payable, but there are some kontakt based ones which outperform it soundwise. yet this is a matter of taste, of course.

The Pianoteq is the only one you should consider. Its amazingly well crafted...

I made a little helper patch to let the demo play more conveniently within max. It will play the excluded notes from a second instance transposed down and reload the plug-in automatically after 20 minutes...

If you ever plan to play it live you will simply get the real thing...

The Pianoteq is the only one you should consider. Its amazingly well crafted...
I made a little helper patch to let the demo play more conveniently within max. It will play the excluded notes from a second instance transposed down and reload the plug-in automatically after 20 minutes...

#STEFANTIEDJE ...very interesting patch but I can't get I to to work...could you give more detailed info about that please? does it work with PTQ v.6? thanks in advance..

instead of the pitch effect, one could also use a tuning table which maps the highest or lowest 7 note number to the missing ones :)

Best VST piano as substitute for real piano
