STRAIGHT FROM THE STAGE

The E-Pian is a classic 73-key electric piano from 1972, recorded with its direct output plugged into a tube preamp. Its tines were adjusted to give very few overtones, which makes it especially warm.

It was in "normal" condition, not properly restored, with a few keys not sounding quite right - so we sampled it both before and after fixing them. This might be the electric piano you find on stage, five minutes before your concert. Around 3465 samples, with 13 velocity layers for the sustain and up to 26 velocities for the releases.

Settings

Original or cleaned

The few imperfect keys of the original instrument were sampled as they were, and again once fixed: one switch chooses between the original and the cleaned version.

Click Settings for the rest of the controls: the release and pedal noise volumes - the pedal noise adds a lot to the realism - and the sensitivity, which sets how quiet the softest notes are.

EQ, amp, tremolo and spring reverb

The Bass and Treble EQ reproduces the two knobs of the real instrument, and an amp simulation based on a Fender 212 cabinet can be switched on or off.

The stereo tremolo is part of the sound of electric pianos, so its amount and speed are here too, along with a spring reverb made from an impulse response of the kind of reverb most used on this instrument.

The more I use this EP the more I like it. It has a wonderful warm rich tone that really lends itself to jazz. It is beautifully sampled and sounds amazing. On a spectrum of super smooth to loud bark this EP is more on the smooth side. The low notes have a rich dark flavor while the high notes have a smooth pleasant ring. One good thing about this piano is that it has a very full sound and doesn't sound at all "thin" like some other EPs out there. It is probably not an all-purpose Rhodes library (if there is such a thing), but overall it is a top quality EP with a lovely unique sound.

The e-piano immediately reminded me of the "Peanuts"- series with Charlie Brown, Snoopy etc.
back in the 60s.

It has a very distinguished sound I cant find in other sample libraries or rhodes sounds.

Since I only buy sounds that I know I can use in EVERY song that I write, design or compose
this is one of the very rare sounds that enriches anything with it`s warm, musical and round
sounding character.

An e-piano with warmth, vibe, flair, charme, special 60s Peanuts-style flavour
you cant live without ... !

Love it !

Every musician should have a copy ...
