Is there a decent piano sound anywhere on the internet that I could load into my Virus? Or have one of you guys managed to create one?
I know the Virus is not supposed to excel at real acoustic sounds, and getting them from a virus may not be easy, however I am certain it is possible with some work.
Thanks very much in advance!

Don?t bother trying. You won?t even get close. You won?t be able to get a realistic sound of the strings. The string are of different thickness, there?s 3 different types of strings and there are only 2 string in the low end but 3 in the mid and high end and besides all this the strings of one note are tuned slightly diffent. A real piano also sound very different at different velocities and you won?t be able to get the tiny differences that does the final touch (the key is pressed, the hammer slams, the reconance of the piano-case, etc.)...
