Appmuse

An update would be nice. When I click on the setting, it crashes.

I’ve been using for many months now. A good app with great sounds. Although a few things can be annoying. When connecting to AudioBus, always needing to select the audio option back in the app before sound will play. The volume knob graphic does not correspond with MIDI input even though the MIDI input does change the volume. I think the built-in recording feature needs help. A simple EQ feature would be nice. Otherwise good AudioUnit support (e.g. directly embed into GarageBand), great polyphony, minimal latency, and a useful velocity curve setting. Show more

Great app. Enjoy this program a lot. Wish the concert grand model was a bit different. Better than IGrand but still a bit behind Ravenscroft imho. Pianoteq is still hard to beat overall. Playing for 40 years. Show more

I have them all. CMP has limited tweakability but the sound quality is my go to solo piano. Second is igrand also very good more adjustments and different pianos but lack realism depth that CMP somehow delivers. Korg module and Ivory, a slow 3rd. Both Ivory and Natural Grand sound electronic to my ears, not worth the half price deal nor the precious 3 1/2 Gb and I wish I could sell them back. Show more

When you press sustain pedal for more than 3 seconds, it starts to have air below sound, and it becomes louder and louder

Using a midi is great but sometimes not practical on the go. Key spread please and I will continue to throw money at you.

Piano app that is. The more expensive one from the same developer is the best and it has other functional advantages. This one is perfectly stable whereas the other can crash on my likely under powered iPad. It is rare that the other will crash, but this one is completely stable. I own many piano apps, but these two and the Ravenscroft are the only ones I use. This is the bang for the buck without question. I still prefer the Colossal Piano, but I could completely live with this one if it was all I could or wanted to afford. I particularly like the Bechstein on here. Show more

To save you some cash. Buy the red grand piano, the white upright in colossus, and the white grand piano in cmp. The white upright piano in colossus is the most real piano I’ve ever played. They’re breathtaking. Amazing tools. For 15 bucks ? A steal I’d recommend an iPad that has some Space. Show more

It needs a volume control within the audio unit...

Let's see, I've owned Synth Ivory II American D and the Ivory Steinway, Alicia's Keys, Piano in Blue, and even the $600 VI Labs VST, as well as many other of those huge sampled libraries. I also have the iOS version of iGrand... So how good is CMP? The Grand piano is ok, a little thin.. But the Jazz Grand... Wow! What a beautiful piano. This is a piano worthy of one of those above mentioned VST sampled libraries. Is it better? Man I cannot say it's better, but just as good I think. In fact, combined with the iPad or iPhone, you have a compact grand piano that sounds superb. Is CMP better than iGrand? Yes most definitely.. iGrand is still ok, but there seems to be so much more "meat" in CMP. iGrand has a different tone.. And it's nice for something different. Show more

I have bought every piano app available for iPad including iGrand ($19.99) and Module with the Ivory IAP ($70.00) and nothing sounds or plays like CMP Grand! This is simply the best piano app period! It's also the least expensive. The only negative is the cartoon looking interface but that has zero effect on the sound. Show more

The sounds here are phenomenal. Would be nice to choose specific midi input device BUT it does allow midi channel selection, which is nice. Only complaint is that G above middle C in the Bechstein A190 addon has a tiny pop when playing loudly in an otherwise amazing instrument. Other CMP instruments in this app I've tried sound consistent but the one mentioned above is still probably my favorite. Show more

Professional quality and excellent optimization. Streams 2 gb instrument multisamples from disk with insanely high polyphony. Runs on ipad mini 2 at 5 ms with 140 notes with no problems. Show more

Just took the plunge on CMP Grand Piano. Wwwwwwow. I really love iGrand, but A/Bing the two, there is no comparison. iGrand by itself is lovely, plays well, has a great variety of sounds and a pretty small footprint for such musical results. But it also has a slightly phased quality I never heard before comparing it to CMP. The high end presence of CMP is so bright I have to watch the listening volume! And those looooooooong decays in the bass notes? Man! I'm holding off for now in the IAPs, more for space reasons than $$ (a very reasonable $12 for both but close to another 3 gigs between them). Nice. Have to say that, on YouTube demos, the difference was in no way so pronounced; it was a total surprise to hear the quality through decent headphones. This is the most piano-like experience I’ve had on the iPad. Well worth the $18 price tag. Show more

Best and most realistic piano app for IOS hands down. Amazing sonic detail, buy all of Crudebytes apps you will not be disappointed.

Amazing Sound! Unbelievably realistic!

Nice sounding piano.

When the voice number reaches 100, there is significant background noise. Hope the dev could find a way to reduce it. Otherwise this is a must have if you are looking for a professional piano sampler. Show more

This app is incredible. The quality, richness, depth and dynamics of the included pianos are amazing. No other piano app comes near to this one, and believe me, I've tried many from the App Store. The pianos samples load fast and the pianos are highly playable, with neither latency nor stuck notes at all. I'm very happy with this app and recommend it to everyone looking for the best piano sound available in the App Store. I hope the developer also sell other sampled instruments in the future like strings, wood winds, brass, etc. I would buy them in a heartbeat. Regards, Show more

Top notch quality w the accessibility thru my ipad.... This is my go to piano sound. I own a ton of virtual software including the play libraries. For the ease of this and my midi controller on the road you can't beat it. You can hear a lot of character in these samples Show more
