Unlike other virtual pianos, this one will give you the sensation of sitting at the piano bench directly in front of the keys. This effect is best experienced when you wear headphones.

SINEFactory Orchestral Tools Ratio Grand Piano
by Simone PiervergiliUploaded on Jul 13, 2023 (and last updated on Jul 14, 2023)
[UPDATE 1] Added more release to the higher notes range G5 to G8, the original VST plugin didn't add release there.
Ratio is a Steinway B grand piano recorded at Sunset Sound in Los Angeles, so this is supposed to be sampled. I still used LMMS to record samples from this plugin.
This piano deserved a soundfont too!!!

This is a free Yamaha C6 Grand Piano plugin by Spitfire LABS (Spitfire Audio), recorded in Woodshed Recording Studio in Malibu, it must be sampled.
I must have arranged splits correctly, right? Just like the original VST plugin.
Btw, this still deserves a soundfont.
