Mar 26, 2020 The DSK Grand piano is a classic free piano VST that I think is definitely useable. I know that there will be some people who rip on it, but for a free option, it’s easy to use and gets the job done.
Are you looking to 'color' your track with some cool and totally free piano plugins? Look no further, we've listed 5 top FREE VST piano plugins.
1. Iowa Grand Piano
Made by the craziest free instrument maker - Bigcat Instruments, Iowa Grand Piano delivers a beautiful and sophisticated sound. Very simple to use plugin with useful decay and release knobs.

If you're looking for more realistic instruments, see this Kontakt Instruments list - there's more pianos, but also a lot of other instruments :)
