Piano from my shool
I remember the sound of a piano from my music school. Gran Coda sounds the same. I have a huge sentiment. It's lightweight, natural. I often use Gran Coda.

A Great Grand Piano Library
Hephaestus Sounds always makes us nice surprises, whether are these its free titles or its affordable and great sounding commercial libraries.
Gran Coda, based on a Steinway grand piano, is surely the best inexpensive piano library for Kontakt, judged upon its content, quality of the sound and playability. It has all necessary patches for a budget virtual piano library - a concert grand, a studio grand, a rock and a pop grand, an upright and a saloon piano and even a harpsichord. The sound is clear, convincing, a bit feeble in lower register, but sharp and dry and utilizable for any kind of professional musical production. Included controls are good.
The bottom line would be a very realistically sounding grand/upright piano library, with high playability and for a fraction of the price other libraries of similar quality have.
Bravo once again for Hephaestus.

Very versatile
A a dozen pianos, each using a variety of adjustments and effects. Good sounds all round, very versatile and workable in many recording situations.
The adjustments and effects are a real bonus.

Gran Coda
The Gran Coda demo was one of my most used Kontakt pianos. The demo included just the concert piano which is fantastic by itself, but when I learned that I was able to get 12 different pianos of the same quality for only $10, I immediately jumped at the opportunity. This library is fantastic. I really don't need any other for a straight up piano sound in my songs. Would highly recommend this library.

Nice piano for nice price
Pros: - Nicely sampled and sounds great to just play - 12 different piano styles (including Concert, Upright, Studio, Honky Tonk) - Nice effects to play with (eg. Distance, Width, Presence, Exciter, Realism, Reverb) - Tiny memory footprint - Nice price (and free demo version available if you search) Cons - There are better and more extensively sampled pianos out with there - Bright upright sound doesn't always sit well in quieter mixes.
