Speaking of Ivory II, I have installed it, can use it as a standalone program, and have managed to import it as a VST into Sonar 6 LE.
However, I cannot use it in Live as a plugin. I have all my VST's in a root folder called C:\VST, and have defined that as the root for VST in preferences in Live. Ivory is installed in that folder. I have tried rescan for plugins 3 times, but no Ivory II. Any tips?

Thanks!

I love Addictive Keys. They offer a free version as well but I have the paid version. I am not a great piano player (or even good for that matter) but here is a video I did covering a few different piano plugins I have. Hope these helps.

I used the full grand that comes with Ableton Live Sampler on this track - loads of dynamics - and it comes with quite a few more such as honky tonk etc. (yuk)

The effect is just ping pong.

Having used the NI Kontakt pianos as well I can say that they are also excellent but Kontakt is a lot more expensive than Sampler!
