Great sound Great sound, easy install. Not keen on style of UI and find it to be not as straight forward as I would like. These are just personal preferences rather than criticisms, so wouldn’t drop a star for that. One of the best sounding electric piano plug ins I’ve used.

Buy with confidence I decided to buy and try Skybox Audio's "Hammers + Waves" when it was on sale since they advertised a 14-day money back guarantee. After exploring the product for many hours over several days I concluded that it didn't really suit the kind of music I wanted to create, even though there was a lot I really liked about it. Skybox Audio refunded me in full with no fuss or delay.

It's an excellent choice. I was looking for a Yamaha C7 Vst library and while visiting the forums, I came across this magnificent C6 with a raw sound, very close, timbral and sufficiently bright. I don't know much about the Yamaha C6 but I often played on a real C7 in the studio and I found a great similarity with the Modern Grand from Hammer & Waves. I really appreciate Skybox Audio for their highly precise work and their configurations which offer a multitude of possibilities. However, the absence of a Velocity Silent Key and a re-pedalling system are notable. The Modern Grand by Hammer & Waves is one of the most real libraries that I have heard in Yamaha's long VST series. It's an excellent choice.

One of the best Piano based plugins One of the best Piano based plugins. This is easily a must-have for anyone looking to get a truly professional piano/keyboard sound and then get a ton of other unique effects that truly make your productions stand out.

The most innovative Piano based plugin The most innovative Piano based plugin. This is easily a must-have for anyone looking to get a truly professional piano/keyboard sound and then get a ton of other unique effects that truly make your creativity blossom. The inspiration I’ve gotten from this vst is refreshing. I’m usually very traditional with my choice of instrumentation in my compositions. This takes me outside my comfort zones. Affordable, easy customizable user interface, useful features. I’m very pleased with this design. I own other piano/electric libraries. This isn’t them, refreshing.
