I re-rendered the other "blind test" I uploaded, the Pianoteq one with some sustained instruments, using the sampled Akoustik Concert D (which is now packaged as the "New York Concert Grand"). Here's the original modeled piano:

And here's the sampled one:

To be honest, I didn't tweak the Pianoteq version at all, just used a preset, and for Akoustik I used my own default settings that I've come to like. So maybe it's not a completely fair comparison.

And since I just can't help myself, one more blind test
