I wonder what happened with PTQ to want to sell it... Which VST is replacing it, if you can tell us?

I don't see any mention of this sale on Modartt's website.

@EB5AGV:
Yeah. Nothing wrong with Pianoteq per se. :-)
It's just that a deep connection was never made between me and a digital piano , despite the effort and time I put into improving it. There's a kind of physical detachment that prevents me from getting absorbed in the instrument. I concluded that it will never "feel" like the real thing albeit the sound aspect can be and has been improved.
I've decided to pick up my previous instrument again which I can practice for hours while actually enjoying the practice hours because of the close intimacy I feel with it. It's an acoustic steel-string guitar. I also dedicate some time each day to practice the recorder. I love the feel of playing wind instruments.
I'll admit though that it's possible that even a good upright piano would not satisfy me either, as far as the intimacy aspect goes, which is a completely personal matter.

OK, I see. Well, my experience with other instruments is so scarce that I can't compare. But for me, both piano VSTs and my acoustic upright create, some times, that link. Perhaps I am easier to satisfy

No. It's definitely not forbidden, nor difficult.

. nice don't discount the melodica as a wind instrument especially given the time you've put into the piano. for roughly $20 at the bottom end (they can sound fine even at that price), it is a risk-free investment to trial or just tinker with. ymmv
