Hi Roel
I listened to the 5Schumann after adding reverb. Then I listened to recordings

I've made of of some concert grands: Boesendorfer, Chickering, Erard and

Steinway. Then went back to yours. They all sound different. Yours is

a perfectly acceptable sound, but maybe a little more different. It is

the only acceptable piano simulation I've heard. 
I'm using an Audigy1 card in Linux. I couldn't get a Freebsd driver for it.

I like it very much.
Cheers.........Al
