Superb. Stellar. Excellent. Outstanding. Best in class. Pick a superlative, and it won't adequately convey how real Ivory II sounds, nor how immersed in the music you'll feel when playing it... If you want one software piano that can cover any musical genre, is equally facile onstage or in the studio, and makes zero sonic compromises, Ivory II is the platinum standard. Long live the king!

Ivory 2 is the Cadillac of piano instruments. The library is massive, the engine is sleek and deep, and the sounds are just jaw-dropping. This is one instrument that truly lives up to the hype.

Ask.Audio

I've reviewed quite a number of piano sample libraries over the years, and some top‑flight stage pianos too. All of them have been good in their own way, but only a very few have felt as mature and musically rewarding as Ivory II Grand Pianos does. It ticks all the boxes: sound quality, playability, flexibility. And then it ticks a few more: reliability, efficiency, ease of use. This is industry‑standard, production‑ready software that's a joy to have around. There's little else to say. Just go and play it.

I was immediately struck by the humanness of the sample set. Digital pianos can often sound sterile, but that's not the case with Studio Grands. This particular Steinway preset came alive and sounded so much like an acoustic piano that I lost track of time digging into it.

Both pianos sound absolutely magnificent, and contrast well with each other.

Synthogy's Ivory II Studio Grands is about as close as you can get to owning and performing on these famed instruments... and its sounds are versatile enough to fit into just about any live or recorded situation.
