So do/did I. Do you have Pianoteq? It's the sort of application
that I'd just have to try in Windows - if there wasn't a Linux version.

The 'Stage' version is reasonable at €99 http://www.pianoteq.com

I like everything about it really. The dedication to model instruments
so closely, the UI's configurable size just makes it easier for me to
see and use on a large screen. There are a few very fine Linux audio
programs which I do find difficult to use (without leaning forward
from my comfortable chair :))... It has been my first choice for a
quick source of music into my developing (currently hdsp_9652*2) system.
