vintage classics possess a magical allure, and with ELEKTRIK PIANO these sounds are

Professional sample
engine
ELEKTRIK PIANO is based on the award-winning high-performance sampling technology from
Native Instruments, making for an unrivalled authentic playback of the original
instruments. Each individual key of the hardware predecessors has been meticulously
sampled to include the entire release phase and at various velocity levels. Release
samples reproduce the sound made when a key is released, enhancing authenticity and
playability.
 |
Depending on the instrument, ELEKTRIK PIANO offers
various effects for creating instrument-specific effect sounds, including chorus, reverb,
phaser, and tremolo. Each instrument also includes a wide selection of ready-to-play
presets, which can be grouped into individual performance sets for quick recall of presets
during live performance using the computer function keys or a MIDI controller. Altered
sound settings can be saved as new presets. |

For stage and studio
Impressive sound, uncomplicated operation, and support for all professional interfaces
make ELEKTRIK PIANO the first choice for studio and stage. Whether standalone or as a
plug-in with multiple instances in a sequencer – ELEKTRIK PIANO combines the classic
sounds of these vintage E-pianos with the power of modern computer-based music production. |
