Description : Nothing embodies the evolution of the electric piano like the suitcase of 1973: the amazing packaging of the keyboard, amplifier and speakers.
To recreate this beloved classic of the electric piano, we hunted high and low for the highest quality original. We found a magnificent suitcase of 1973, during which weeks went on a thorough restoration of specialists. Returning to the peak state, we began a detailed recording in order to catch every nuance of its original sound.
Requires Kontakt Player or Full 5.5.1 or higher!
Additional Information
Sound design
Electric S offers almost limitless customization options.
Instantly manipulate sustain resonance, key noises, release, and reverse samples, and virtually adjust the distance between tines and pick-ups at the tweak of a button.
Experiment with classic electric piano effects such as Tremolo, Chorus, Amp Simulation, Delay and Reverb in the FX section.
Or blend your electric with acoustic: in addition to recording electrical output signals of the 1973 Suitcase, an extensive microphone set-up was used to capture the pure, unaltered acoustic sound of the instrument. Giving you the best of both.
Studio and Live
With the Electric S we wanted you to experience not only a clean, flexible and expressive sound but also the best possible feel.
The Suitcase was recorded with and without the original speaker to create two separate sound sets: Studio and Live.
Studio gives direct unaltered line-out sound, while Live captures the sound of cabinet and speakers through a comprehensive microphone set-up covering all four speakers for an incredibly realistic feel.
Pentamorph
The stylish Pentamorph gives you unparalleled direct control over the sound of the Electric S.
Morph instantly from the classic Suitcase sound to a new complex voice using a single control. Choose from one of the five main characteristics or any position between.
Animator
Make it sound like a top session player is riffing in your studio. At the heart of the Animator you’ll find more than 400 ready-to-play licks and phrases in different genres and styles. Use it to start or finish your tracks with a professional flourish in no time, following keys and harmonies with complete control over dynamics and complexity.
Smart chord
Stuck for ideas and need some inspired chord changes? This clever feature is your new best friend. Harnessing the power of modern instruments and controllers, full chords or Animator riffs can be played either via a pad controller or single keys.
