It will sound great, but you'll soon find out why some of us want more RAM and/or disk streaming. Don't plan on having any other high quality keygroups in that song.

Yea that’s a huge keygroup. 8 might be overkill on the notes. It’s been a bit but I think I used 3.5 or 5 for more sustained notes and shorter for shorter things.
Perhaps you may want to experiment with them to see how much it really helps with the sound.
I can trade you on some Roland piano patches.
