My brother has a fairly high-end Yamaha digital piano which is supposed to do these sorts of things, a model from something like ten years ago, but although it’s clearly better than my cheap Yamaha P45 which lacks this stuff altogether, it’s still utterly unrealistic. Nice as it is and sounds, I’ll still prefer my old upright almost every time just for the responsive feel and the proper resonance and acoustic interplay.
(Though in practice both of my pianos have been comparatively neglected since I got a Kawai DX1900 drawbar organ a year ago, which I think is rather amusing. Analogue electronics are really fun, the wear and failure modes are much more interesting than digital electronics like they’d use if making this kind of thing these days.)
Yeah, seeing Linux support on their list is very encouraging. I wonder if it’s common for people to embody this in an instrument that runs Linux—I can imagine that being about the most convenient.

I should try Pianoteq and Organteq.
