Hi all,
So I'm banging around some piano samples:
http://pythonicle.net/sounds/output-7.ogg
http://pythonicle.net/sounds/output-7.mp3
using phasing (a la Steve Reich) and some piano samples I found here:
http://www.pianosounds.com/freesoundfont.htm
Does anyone have a recommendation for a more comprehensive (non-free even)
piano sound palette ?
maybe the "Salamander"?! It announced on LAU a few weeks back:

or direct:

I use python code* and was very happy to be able to
import soundfont files.
I see also these gigasampler files, maybe i can use libgig to access those (?)

Take a look if you are curious. There is python wrappers for using numpy
with ladspa and portaudio. And i forget what else. One of these days
I might get around to cleaning all this up, but right now I need to
make sounds just to bring some sanity into my world.
bye for now,
Simon.
