I've even adjusted the layer boundary points. Vintage D is probably better suited for classical styles that need pp-ppp dynamics. The Grandeur though does not quite have the dynamic range of Vintage D especially at the lowest dynamics.

Please read the FAQ page to check the hardware and software requirements. To answer the OPs question, the Grandeur is a bit clearer, less distant, and has slightly better stereo presentation than Galaxy Vintage D. Information : This is a free version of Organteq for evaluation purpose.

Next, I adjust the velocity curve to account for how I change dynamics from p to fff and where the velocities cross sample layer boundaries. Restrictions in trial versions : 8 notes are disabled (silent): F1, G1, A1, C5, D5, F5, G5 and A5. If you're playing what you consider "p" and the velocities are >~30 or so, the piano will probably sound bright and harsh.
First your controller should be sending velocities that correlate with your actual playing dynamics. II created the same 10 audio demos with 6 additional pianos which are: NI The Grandeur, 4Front True Pianos Atlantis module, Arturia Piano V (modified preset), Pianoteq 5 standard demo Model B, Garritan authorized Steinway Basic Edition and the free Salamander Piano ( Yamaha C5). I find it useful to "set up" my piano VI, akin to a bass player adjusting truss rod, intonation, string height, etc. The velocities you send to a piano VI can affect your perception of them.
