MDA has a free piano plug. It doesn't sound that great, but it better than nothing.

Thanks!

It's not the best as you said but as long as nobody
knows something better it's enough!

Or get the SFZ soundfont-player and get some piano soundfonts.

How about comments on commercial pianos and electric pianos? I found the factory sounds in the Reason NN-XT to be pretty decent, triple strikes mostly. Does anyone use NI Elektrik Piano or Emagic EVP-88?

And who can recommend a good harware piano module. Have always lusted after the Nord Electro 2, but its expensive! Any tips?

Still searching for that perfect virtual piano... nothing beats my 30 year old wurly 200A when it comes to pure playing satisfaction -- nor for that matter when it comes to pure static and loose action!

Ei,
try the 4 front piano module. It's not a pristine sound. As a matter of fact it's
a more "abrasive" sounding piano, almost out of tune.Could fit nice in a busy tune!
