Thx for the reply. I orded a CA99 EP (I am owning a CA98 alteady).
And also I owned a CA97,95 and 93...
But now I habe to stick with the 98...because no availiability of new CA99 anymore. All units in Austria prebooked for the big online warehouses and none for my local dealer.
Even I ordered mine w/o test playing on the very day the press release came out in January and payed on the very next day the full amount.
I had the Chance to change to a matt finish but that I dont like.
Keepers me updated all you lucky ones who got one "-).

Has anyone created/tweaked the Piano's in the virtual technician? If so, might a couple of you be willing to share your lovely Piano sounds with us?
I've done a few. My favourite so far is one made with the SK-EX Jazz Clean, a touch curve of Heavy1, topboard Open3 and a Lounge reverb. Sounds quite nice!
I'm not so much a fan of the Upright - hopefully someone has done something with it to make it sound a bit nicer?
Hi Amy - not yet but about to have a little go - will come back once or if I do anything Andy

Hi all. I could really use your help.
I just received my CA99, and I'm having a strange problem. The middle octave (on speaker, SK-EX grand) sounds funny. It's hard to describe, like it's distorted a little, or like an electric instrument is present. I did a few tests. I thought something was wrong with the speakers, so I tried the music demo. I picked Fur Elise because it uses the notes at the very beginning that sounds funny on my piano. On the demo, it doesn't sound funny at all. In fact, it sounds amazing. So I was thinking the key sensors must be broken, but that was not the case because on headphones, it sounds great also.
I did a factory reset, and my firmware is 1.04.
All in all, I love the piano, especially the feel and touch, but this weird distorted, tinny sound is bothering the heck out of me.
Please help, and thank you.

As you live in the European Union there are no real obstacles to order it in another EU-country. For example there are a few major German online dealers who have it in stock, who can also ship to your home in Austria at a reasonable price. But now I habe to stick with the 98...because no availiability of new CA99 anymore. All units in Austria prebooked for the big online warehouses and none for my local dealer.

While it should be possible to purchase the instrument from another retailer, as BastiaanB notes, I can appreciate your desire to purchase from and support your local dealer. Therefore, my recommendation would be to simply wait until the availability situation improves. Kind regards, James x

Problem is the penalty for my loyalty: If my dealers becomes insolvent in the next weeks all my money AND my CA98 is gone :-( :-( :-(. It's hard time... Galuwen

I love my new ca79. The only thing I don't like is the time you have to wait for the power up, 6 seconds for the sound and 30 for the software!! Is the same for you?

That's the worst info about new pianos I heard so far. 30s is waaay too long nowadays. At least sound engine loads up a bit faster. Similar to CA98, but on CA98 full software loads faster, I'd have to measure it.
