Yes all the Kronos pianos are free when you purchase one. If you don't like the pianos in the Kronos then get another keyboard.

Sometimes it's the player and not the piano sound. Feel me!

I find free pianos every week end

At garage sales

Yes. There's the free Salamander Piano that Anthony put together for Kronos users.

Here's the link to that thread, though I'm not sure if the download link is still good.

Here is a slow piece from which you can evaluate the Kronos with my slightly edited Berlin sound.

You're welcome. I think this video shows it is possible to achieve a haunting solo classical mellow sound with the Kronos Berlin, instead of emphasizing the usual overbright aspects of it.

Absolutely - I agree. I think you’ve done a great job !
I do believe the pianos in the Kronos are very underrated - especially the Berlin Grand

Thanks so much. I totally agree with you about the Kronos Berlin. For classical repertoire, it is by far the best one. Quite expressive. Earlier pianos like the German grand don't have a very good ppp to mp color, but they can sound good in a band context or for more percussive piano pieces.
