FAQ

Was this piano the same used on Kraftwerk's album "Autobahn"?

How can I know that will run in my DAW?

Our Windows VST plugins use the same installation method. You can download one of our free VST tools for Windows, such as MR-93 Lite or Rhythm K10. Use the installation process as instructed in the user guide. If it works, the Pianissimo VST3 plugin will also run in your DAW.
