My friend is producing a single for me, and one of the tracks uses mostly synthetic instruments through Garageband. We recorded the piano in "Piano On Stage", but listening back, this sounds way too electric. Normally I record with a Technics KN-550 – which has about the best piano sound of any keyboard I’ve ever played. Does anyone have any suggestions of a great, authentic piano sound for Garageband?

Don’t forget that you can sample a piano sound and use that in your software instrument sound selection. If thats too much of a hassle. Spend a bit of time fine tuning the sound envelopes that are preset on existing sounds. You can almost literally create any sound you can imagine in the details window with any instrument.
