I love and use this one. Check on my "Eleanor Rigby" demo.

I already have tried some Sampletekk pianos, not happy with how they sit in the mix. I just bought the new Fazioli piano by Imperfect Samples.. http://www.imperfectsamples.com/website/samples/fazioliconcertgrand/index.php

It sound so warm and is so inspiring to play, is sitting in the mix well asw ell

Do You need it to be something for the EXS?
Otherwise I like Pianoteq, and their new Pianoteq Play version is great value at €99.

Download the demo and see if You like it...

I already have pianoteq, it's ok but still a synethsized piano, I was looking for something more gritty and realistic. The imperfect samples fazioli piano fantastic, its on a different level IMO.

Again, this is not in EXS 24 format. But I love this acoustic piano software instrument:

http://www.truepianos.com/overview.php

It uses a combination of samples, modeling, and synthesis. It is very light on the CPU and doesn't take a ton of hard drive space. It sounds great in the mix, and feels great to play on - who could ask for more from a piano sample!

Truepianos is still synthesized, the imperfect fazioli is on a different level TBH, amazing sound, warm and inspriring.

Funny, I frequently use the 7 Seas because of how WELL it sits in a mix.
