Yeah, since we use TPC, the footprint is kept to a minimum, only around 500MB on disc for the full library!

We use TPC compression on all our products. (Toontrack Percussive Compression). Loss-less means that the files are smaller without changing any information, compare with compressing a text document. It is smaller on disc, but when you read it, you can still see all the words.
The Piano has been sampled with up to 9 velocity layers per note and state (both pedal down & pedal up).
It is 44.1Khz 16Bit (same as EZdrummer), it was recorded in 96Khz/24Bit and kept that way all the way to the final master.
It has the detail that you would expect from a high end piano and can be used in any production without the need to replace the piano sounds with anything else.
Our goal with everything we do is to achieve the highest possible soundquality.
It has already been recorded to cut through the mix, and so, you wont need to EQ it to make it cut through.
It has been recorded with multiple mics, which are mixed down to the stereo output that you have in EZKeys.

Recorded through a DAD audio interface with its digital mic pre’s with these mics at Stockholm Radio:
Close : Telefunken M270 X/Y stereo
Mid : Neuman M50 AB stereo
Mid2 : Coles 4038 AB stereo
Amb : Neumann M269 AB stereo

Finally, download the demo if you are unsure and hear it for yourself.
The demo has the full library, and so you can really listen to the full quality of the samples.
