/mnt/hda1/samples/piano-steinway-IOWA# du -h P*
6,3M    Piano.pp.A2.aiff
848K    Piano.pp.A2.flac

:-D

I am happy with all of these things


But,

	I think that when the samples will be into the "sf2" stage, the piano 
will be too big for almost any machine... Qsynth behavioral was too 
slow when I used soundfonts bigger than 30mb on a 128mb PC (now i have 
384mb, but I did not tried again).

	I think that (when the licence issue could be clear) I should make 
little, medium and big .sf2 files... but I am just supposing, I will 
have to test all of these things.

	Also, I must learn a few things about the .sf2 format, as instance, how 
to make different layers (if it's possible, I dont know really)

cheers!
