hi there guys, as i'm sure you've noticed… there are problems with the native instrument new piano claire, it's a very good sounding piano that and that's the reason i'm writing this, if it was a yet-another-piano-lib i wouldn't have bothered but it's a fantastic sounding instrument, well, let's get into the problems i've found

01 the lack of half pedaling - even though there's a half pedal button, it doesn't do anything, and it's somewhat ridiculous cause the noire already have this feature

02 the sostenuto pedal isn't there at all which is frustrating (again : noire have this feature as well)

03 the pedal up resonances sometimes sound a bit weird and sharp, which doesn't bother me much but since i'm the only one complaining i think it's worth mentioning

04 it doesn't play as well and fast as the noire, i compared them and found the noire to be noticeably more playable (i'm not sure but i think there's some kind of pre-attack in the samples so it doesn't respond as fast and seamless

anyway i hope galaxy/native team would fix these problems soon.

    I am VERY interested in this VST if these issues are fixed. Listened to recordings and it sounds gorgeous.

    Please address this, NI!

    I have noticed a similar problem. The re-pedaling does sound a bit better, but I noticed that release time is a bit long, and the release samples sound a bit off. For a library with really good re-pedaling, Production Voices 300 Grand beats even Noire.

    Hello, I just bought Claire and I love the sound when I play slowly, with damper pedal on. I reduce release samples too, and sympathetic harmonies too. But I agree with the previous comments. I have many problems for using it with fast passages and especially in the lids it is impossible to play piano riffs with groove and rhythm, because of the loud sensation I have with Claire. I really hope that ´ative will fix it very soon…
