That's a pretty good price. By comparison, EWQL Pianos Gold is about
$350, the full version is nearly $500. And it doesn't run at all on
Linux. And PianoTeq runs on Linux with Jack support and doesn't
require 50 GB of hard drive space. Kudos to PianoTeq for providing a
Linux version (although I imagine it's only standalone rather than a
plugin)
