You must already have Pianoteq 8 installed.
The $49 is the price of the piano expansion itself, so if you already had Pianoteq and a few pianos then it is $49 to add this additional one.

If you are a new Pianoteq user than you can select this one as one of the initial options.
Pianoteq Stage $139 : Two instrument selections included
Pianoteq Standard $269: Three instrument packs and ability to tweak the instruments
Pianoteq PRO $399: Four instrument packs and more detailed editing per note and higher sampling rate
Pianoteq Studio $899: The entire instrument collection and all the features of PRO

I also had a playthough during a special Wednesday livestream.

Whoa didn’t Studio use to be a lot cheaper? I don’t think I paid nearly that much and only like 3 additional packs have been released since.

Been $800 for a long time, though, list price of course.

True. I paid 479 EDU price which is 40% off 799. Damn!

You can, I did.

This is an absolute marvel from Pianoteq. Just listen to the New Age preset. 

[Fleer]

Man, that Jazz Recording preset. Just run the demo and swirl.

Completely agree, that is one enchanting piano sound.

Gorgeous piano! I once (sadly, only once) got to play a 290 Imperial. An exec at a NYC-based international bank I was consulting to invited me to play his. He had added a huge addition to his Long Island house just for that piano. It was done in the old European recital room style with a two-story high ceiling, and with tall French windows with heavy curtains. Even the extra left-hand keys rang clear. No mud. Damn, but that piano sounded awesome. I had studied piano with the soloist for the St. Louis Philharmonic, but I was just a rank amateur compared to some of the jazz and classical pianists he'd invited to play it when they were in NYC on tour. I haven't often felt "special" in my life, but I did that time.

There are three other libraries that I've wanted to add, so the Börsendorfer makes 4. Does Modartt ever put them on sale, or should I just PayPal 4 x 49 € to them now?

A wonderful experience, no doubt!

Modartt regularly does 20% up to 30% off sales. There’s edu pricing at 40% off. But also, if you haven’t yet, you can add instruments when upgrading from Stage to Standard (which I really recommend) or Pro. Those upgrades go on sale as well.

I've already got Pro, so I'll wait a bit for an expansion pack sale. Unless I get a bad case of G.A.S. ?

What out, or you’ll go Studio… like me.
