Tedh222,
Decent sound. But, highly overrated!
When I first purchased Ravenscroft 275 I was quite disappointed with the sound. When I played with greater velocity it never seemed to deliver the percussive, brighter hammer action sound I felt it should have. And no matter how I adjusted the two Velocity parameters in the App I was disappointed. Well, my M-Audio Keystation 88 began to have problems with a few keys loosing their velocity. And this keyboard had no internal way to adjust the velocity sensitivity. That was totally dependent on the software. I replaced the Keystation 88 with the Nektar LX88+ which does have internal adjustment of velocity. It allows the full spectrum of the Ravenscroft 275 to come through. I am now more satisfied with the resulting sound. However, it still lacks a realistic hammer attack in the sound. The main thing this has going for it is sympathetic resonance. I seriously feel I get a more satisfying result with several pianos from iGrand and SampleTank. Being some of the early releases of sampled pianos for IOS, they lack sympathetic resonance. But with careful blending of some reverb that can help, somewhat, in that area. The other shortcoming of iGrand is a 64 note polyphony limitation. I have several of the major acoustic pianos for IOS. But, I still tend to favor the pianos in iGrand and SampleTank.
Digital Piano Man,
Almost there but needs improvement
I play literally hundreds of Darius digital pianos with USB midi and audio connectivity. I’ve also played hundreds of professional acoustic grand pianos. For an inexpensive acoustic piano app, this is certainly one of the best I’ve used on a digital piano or midi controller digital piano. Beautiful, resonate sound with long damper pedal decay time and It has enough features to do most of the editing that I want. But as far as I can tell it’s missing half-damper pedal control when connected to a digital piano, and for me that’s a big issue. I like the expressiveness and control of the half-damper pedal which most lower and higher priced digital pianos now have internally. Acoustic pianos have continuous variable damper pedal control, but when using this app it does not send that function to the sustain pedal so it’s just basically on and off with a little bit of re-pedaling which can make the sound a bit choppy when using a sustain pedal. Not very happy with that. Perhaps Ravenscroft can do something about this or let me know if I am missing something here. Otherwise the app is very usable and much better than most, especially for the money.
StarvingNYCDilettante,
Pretty Good for What it Is
It would help if the developer would provide some documentation, which I can’t seem to find anywhere... The problems I encounter seem to be a function of the limited resources of the (2018) iPad. It doesn’t do polyphony well, and the sound will degrade with big arpeggiated chords and lots of pedaling (i.e.: Debussy). Ditto for the sample rate and buffer size. Just leave those at default or the latency will get ugly. If you have a good midi keyboard, keep the velocity around 95% for the best touch vs. volume. And ditto the Equalizer. Any adjustments more than just a little above/below the mean will sound terrible. If you accept the above limitations you will get the most from these gorgeous samples. Just don’t expect the same openness and presence as computer software like Pianoteq 6, etc. Phones and tablets simply don’t have the resources for that. However you can expect to enjoy a very pleasant and acceptably realistic piano sound. It’s a very good portable alternative to being tethered to a computer, and I think that’s all this app was ever meant to be.
GreyMike,
Best so far, and worth the money.
After playing with this for a few days, I’m thoroughly impressed with the sound and feel, as well as the relatively simple setup. For those of us who have spent hundreds (or even thousands) on pro music software in the past, the price is a drop in the bucket, and quite reasonable for a professional application that is not a toy. I’m optimistic that the developers will continue to refine this app, and hope that the features of the desktop/laptop version that are missing in this one will be included over time.
One of those missing features is the ability to adjust the levels of sustain pedal noises in the mix; while realistic, they are definitely higher in this app than they should be, with no means of changing them. That’s my only quibble at this point, and I’m looking forward to further developments.

DonGarberg,
Simply the best
No other ac. piano app comes close to this one. As others have said, the samples sound incredible. And just as importantly, the feel is second to none in the digital world. Phenomenal, professional product. I don’t understand the negative comments about damper noise. I spent all day recording an album for a client in a real studio - not a bedroom with a MacBook. We used the Ravenscroft piano app in half the tunes. The damper noise is definitely there, and adds even more realism to the sound. If it’s too much for your taste or use, simply turn the effect down or off in the settings. Pretty straight forward.
have been a pro musician for 30+ years with a lot of experience and credits under my belt. Trust me, you need to get this app if you want the best ac. piano app currently available (Sep 2019).

Ameer.Fisher,
Beautiful sound and velocity response
I have Pianoteq stage and Eastwest piano Steinway D on my computer, so when I say this is an AMAZING app to compete with the previous two virtual pianos I mentioned I mean it. It comes in half the price you’d pay for any cheap app on a computer, and it has the essential properties you need. However, don’t try playing it with headphones like I did the first time, because headphones does it a disservice. I have the Casio Privia PX 770, and playing with this app and two external powerful speakers resembles playing on an acoustic piano, in my opinion, way better than Pianoteq and eastwest piano. So would you want to pay +$100 on an app on a laptop or a computer, or have an app on your phone for less than half the price, in your pocket, just as powerful if not better? You tell me.
LinearLineman,
The Very Best iOS Piano, Period!
Of course it is subjective, but the majority of users on the Audiobus forum,I believe, would agree with me. I am a jazz pianist with fifty years playing and recording and I have tried all the piano apps on the AppStore. There are other good ones, but this, to my ear, is way ahead in size, sound and stability. There used to be a problem with pedal noise, but now you can adjust or turn the pedal sound entirely off. So now it is about perfect. The EQ and reverb and velocity curve allow for great customization and you can save your own presets. RC275 is based on the $275,000 acoustic and they dare to let you play the software that the app is based on side by side with the real thing at NAMM. Need I say more? You want better? Then buy the Ravenscroft for desktop!

My go to piano on iOS and MacOS
The Ravenscroft is one of my main pianos on macOS (Ravenscroft, Ivory D, PianoTEQ and VSL’s Synchron Pianos), but is the only piano on iOS I use. It’s the best, IMO so I’ll skip the superlatives and say what I think could be improved.
The iOS version doesn’t seem to have many velocity layers. Perhaps it’s a just a single layer. It also seems to have a louder noise floor. It sounds excellent through iPad Pro speakers, but not as good through studio headphones.
With recent iPads and iPhones having such strong SoCs I’d like to see the iOS version updated to nearly match the macOS version feature for feature. I like the idea of a Pro version for iOS that’s like a direct port of the macOS version with upgrade offers to current users.
I understand this could take up a lot of disk space, but perhaps a stronger lossless compression could be employed.
Even with the current limitations it’s the best piano on iOS. I’m giving it five stars because it’s very good. However, I’d like to see parity between the iOS and macOS versions.

Domo Steve,
Blown away!
I can’t stop playing this piano. The sound is outrageous. I especially like that I can change the timbre so easily and quick on a gig. The darker settings are great for mellow tunes. What people aren’t mentioning is the feel. It just feels right. You can adjust the touch and that combined with the tone adjust gives lots of variations to play with....but the touch feels great.
Also I thought the price was high for this but if you consider the cost of a full keyboard with decent samples you are looking at lots of cash$$$. This sounds every bit as good for a fraction of the cost. I’ve used it on trio gigs and also playing with a big band. How about a Rhodes next time? 😎

Unusable
Let me start out by saying that I’m really impressed with the quality of the samples and how expressive the app is. It really does sound amazing. However I paid $40 to have great samples for mobile recording. Unfortunately the samples really are unusable because of how loud the dampening pedal is. It really is unrealistic and it is incredibly distracting especially when playing softly, especially since the dampening pedal always reacts with the same velocity no matter how soft or hard you press. For a company that prides themselves in realism, I was really shocked and disappointed by this. Easily a 5 star app if you could control the volume of the dampening pedal. As it is, 2 stars since the piano sounds nice...I understand you can’t include all the functions of the desktop program, but at least make the $40 app usable. Please fix this!
