QUANTUM LEAP PIANOS GOLD EDITION - http://kellysmusicandcomputers.com/savemoney.asp?c=AP-8487
Our Price:$314.00 We save you: $35.00
This collection includes four of the world's finest grand pianos: a Bechstein D-280, Steinway D, Bösendorfer 290, and Yamaha C7. The PLAY interface includes impulses from the same hall the producers used to record Symphonic Orchestra and Symphonic Choirs so the pianos can blend with those collections.  
 
Many users prefer a lighter version of the EASTWEST/QUANTUM LEAP PIANOS that will allow them to run the most critically acclaimed pianos collection on slower computers. EW/QL Pianos Gold gives you that option, with only the player-perspective mic position included. When you do have the hardware you need for the full version, the upgrade costs only the difference in price.
