The MKSensation Xtreme is a continuation of our famous MKSensation plugin library.

WARNING: This is a 50+ GB Library!!

At it’s core it represents the highest quality and the most accurate sampled representation of the classic MKS-20 piano module. You see, coming from a gospel musicians background this MKS sound is a staple of the gospel sound and has been featured in some of the top gospel albums throughout the years. For years you would see gospel musician’s rack filled with the MKS-20 module and a ton of other vintage racks such as the JV-Series, Motifs, and other auxiliary brass, strings, and bell sounds. This would create a complex and massive MIDI setup of the thickest stacked sounds imaginable with the ability to control the levels of each on the fly for a very fluid and dynamic concert experience with minimal sound switching, because the layers can be easily controlled with one or two controllers. So what we did was recreate this entire experience in one plugin to replace decades of modules.  

Bonus P-330 Sounds

A little known secret is that many gospel musicians who thought they were listening to a record containing the classic MKS Piano 1 sound, were actually hearing the P-330 piano sounds. For the most part, the MKS’s sounds are more richer and thicker than the P330, with an odd exception of the Piano 1 sound. The P330 Piano sounds cut through the mix a lot better than the MKS and to our ears, was a tad bit thicker and vintage sounding. So as an added bonus, not only do we include two different versions of the MKS sounds sampled using different Mic Pres for different flavors, we have also included an amazingly accurate version of the P330 Piano 1 and Piano 2 sounds as well. 

Presets

The presets we created are unapologetically gospel and urban in nature—representing all of the classic stacks of a gospel, R&B, Hip-Hop, and live band arrangement sounds one could ever need. We have created the most incredible stacks with a ton of mod wheel filter cutoff with pads and strings. We have also not forgotten about the Tine lovers, so we created a ton of layered EPs that would never be possible without a ton of hardware racks. For example, try mixing a JD Crystal EP, an MKS-EP 2 Chorus, an FM TX816 with a warm pad. You would need a ton of hardware to do this, but our MKSensation has all of the emulations of the hardware in one plugin.

A Legendary Collection

Pianos was created with a singular goal: to fully capture every sonic detail possible from 4 of the most sought-after grand pianos in the world by any means necessary. With 3 individual mic positions, 8 separate articulations, and up to 18 velocities per note for each articulation, the detail and stereo image of every piano is highly customizable to your exact performance and mixing needs out of the box. You can easily mix multiple mic positions and simulate the damping effects of a real grand piano lid for each instrument, giving you full performance flexibility.

Unparalleled Realism

Listen to any of the audio demos of Pianos, and you’ll find it difficult to believe the performances weren’t recorded live in a concert hall. Every piano (Steinway, Bösendorfer, Bechstein and Yamaha) has enough fine detail to suit everything from quiet, subdued passages to virtuoso performances–and you can push their dynamic range as hard as you need to, effortlessly jumping between pianissimo and fortissimo as desired. Pianos seamlessly transitions between 7 different articulations: sustain, sustain with pedal, repetitions, repetitions with pedal, soft pedal, soft pedal with sustain pedal, and staccato, with individual release trails.

Steinway D: Bright, regal and elegant. The Steinway D captures the full sound of the concert hall and grows into a space larger than life. While capable of gracefully handling soft passages, this piano shines in broad, virtuosic passages. In the hands of a composer, it’s an excellent way to bring one of the world’s most famous pianos into your own studio; in the hands of a skilled performer, it’s a highly powerful weapon in your arsenal.

Bosendorfer 290: Far mellower than the Steinway D, the Bosendorfer 290 excels in both light & bouncy and legato & sustained passages. Rather than aspiring to the grandeur of its brighter rival, it prides itself on buttery smooth performances. When you engage the sustain pedal, this smoothness increases tenfold and lends this Bosendorfer the power and richness of an entire orchestra.

Bechstein 280: The clear winner in clear detail and note separation. Whereas the other instruments in Pianos excel in creating a larger-than-life acoustic tapestry, the Bechstein 280 is perfectly content to offer precise harmonic separation between every note. Each note is slightly thinner than the other pianos, which affords you the ability to perform incredibly complex passages and still hear each individual note, no matter how large your chord stacks are.

Yamaha C7: With a beautiful mid-range and a light twinkle in the high end, the Yamaha C7 is an excellent choice for blues and folksy music, especially old American classics. It offers a unique blend of smoothness and character that practically beg you to throw in a few jazzy ornaments here and there. While perfectly suitable for orchestral writing, this piano shines in genres like stride and ragtime.

Enter the dark side of sound with Creepy Piano 3, the follow-up of our popular mutated and utterly scary piano plugin for Windows and macOS.

This new version comes with a revamped interface and structure, but don’t worry, the sound is now even scarier and creepier.

Creepy Piano 3 has a lo-fi touch and contains processed piano samples originally recorded from Steinway & Sons A-188 and Yamaha C3 pianos; all the presets from the previous version are included too. There are Four expansions with 95 multi-sampled presets in total, giving you unprecedented room for creation.

The interface is user-friendly and straightforward with ADSR amplitude envelope, LFO modulation, lowpass/highpass filter and cutoff. New effect modules were added – delay and reverb, each of which comes with typical controls and parameters.

The sound shape & feel can be further manipulated with the ADSR envelope, but also the included tremolo section – LFO modulation with rate & depth. Last but not least, volume (gain) and pan complete the global controls.

But the sound design capabilities don’t stop here: those 4 additional sound effects (rain, vinyl, wind & dark) at the bottom can be layered with any preset. Each sound effect has individual controls for gain, pan, plus they can be turned on/off from a switch.

Creepy Piano 3 is perfect in the creation of cinematic background music for games and videos, lo-fi hip hop, trap, creative sound design, also in any production where a dark piano sound is needed.

The virtual instrument is available in VST/VST3 & AU plugin versions for DAWs and other plugin hosts running on Windows and macOS.

Features:

• Windows & Mac
• 2000+ samples
• 95 Multi-Sampled Piano Presets

Neo-Soul Keys Studio 2 is the next evolution in electric piano sounds and effects from Gospel Musicians

WARNING: This is a 50+ GB Library!!

It features a complete architecture overhaul using our Pure Synth structure and licensed VKFX effects from Overloud. Our goal with version 2 was to make an all encompassing electric piano and effects library that will complete all of your electric piano sound and digital effects needs.

Don’t think of Neo-Soul Keys Studio 2 as just a sample library only. Is is actually a complete EP Library and effects plugin featuring not only Overloud’s VKFX library and factory presets, but 17 brand new effects that seamlessly integrates together with shared effects preset recall from within the library and plugin. The interface has a complete overhaul and designed for ease of use for novices, and extensive control for power users.

Finally, we up’d the ante with 8-Brand new electric pianos that features the clean and well manicured side of your EP experience.

Don’t worry, we still have the dirt and grit that you liked from version 1, but now you have the ability to dial in your own grit given that each of the 6 sound slots are completely programmable, which allows you to load any sound into any slot. You even have the option to load the same sound into multiple slots for a vast amount of layering possibilities.

8 New Electric Pianos

Our goal this time around was to represent the cleaner side of the electric piano spectrum. We know all previous versions represented the dirty side, so that is still there as well. We wanted to find rare pianos that represent different and unique nuances in sound, with the goal of extreme playability as the utmost importance. This is why many of our high end piano sounds have up to 1,000 samples, representing up to 30 velocity levels. So now you have both clean and dirty sounds in one library. We are also used very sophisticated Spectral Isolation techniques for our mechanical effects. By using spectral synthesis, we were able to, more precisely, isolate things such as tines, dirt, hits, clunks, and other mechanical noises from the actual pianos. This way you can add as much mechanical noises and, tines as you wish:

1. Nu Suitcase: A well tuned and manicured suitcase that represents the clean and beautiful side, with beautiful bell tine noises in the low velocities. This EP was sampled from the DI, suitcase speakers, and mic’d ambient harp. It comes in a DI and fully concatenated stereo version with all of the tonal goodness from each source.
2. Suitcase 88: This is another clean suitcase with a very unique and interesting tine attack. This is great for tine lovers.
3. Nu Mark I Stage: This is a very clean and dark sounding Stage EP. The uniqueness in this piano lies its deep and rich lows with a ton of bark and expression.
4. Dilluh Stage: – Sampled from JFILT from Very Sick Beats who one of the top Neo-Soul Hip-Hop producers on YouTube. This EP is great for Hip-Hop Jazz, Neo-Soul, and that J-Dilla, Roots/Slum vibe. It is clean with well placed quarks, which makes it ideal for that dirty stuff.
5. Nu Mark V: We updated our Mark V with a super clean and chocolate sound. The expression is deep and barks tremendously.
6. Mark III Tines: This is for tine lovers who absolutely love the sound of tines, which is reminiscent of a Mark III EK sound.
7. Nu Wurly: This is a well manicured, maintained, and serviced Wurly piano that can fit with any type of genre.
8. D’Ang CP70: There would be no soul, without the sound of recording artist D’Angelo, who often performs live on a Yamaha CP70 Electric Grand. A CP70 sample library is a rare find and could easily cost half the price of this library alone, so we sampled a well manicured and serviced version, which sounds very authentic. The sources sampled were the DI, AMP, and an XY Mic for the ambient tone. The result is a beautifully sampled version that will give you that classic D’Angelo live sound.

KLAVEE: RARE CZECH ELECTRIC PIANO, RESTORED.

Klavee is the virtual restoration of a gem. The Czech Klaviphon. A plucked electric piano manufactured in the 60s in the Czech Republic.

There’s no other Electric Piano like this one and it’s never been recreated into a virtual instrument, until now. A rare-piece specially made for electric piano collectors.

Sound is generated by reeds plucked by wooden hammers. Sound on lower octaves is the classical reed-based. On upper register, the timbre turns in to a Kalimba-like sound, due to the nature of the hammer-hit direction (from bottom to top on the reed-edge).

The Czech Klaviphon is almost extinct. No parts can be found online and just a few of them still alive. This is why we wanted to make a virtual version of it. To keep its unique sound for further generation of musicians.

KLAVEE was built upon spectral modeling. A technique that assures perfect tone matching with the original instrument.

MAIN FEATURES:

• Spectral Modeled Klaviphon Electric Piano.
• Real-time Spectral transformations
• Based on real samples.
• Just 35MB.
• No velocity-switching.
• Ambient FX
• Drive FX
• Stereo Delay FX.
• Scalable HD interface.
• Easy install.
• Ready to be loaded into major DAWs (Cubase, Logic Pro, GarageBand, Cakewalk, Reaper, BitWig, Nuendo, FL Studio, etc)
• Win 32/64 bits and Mac (Catalina Ready) VST/AU/Standalone versions included (No AAX version)
• No online activation required, just download and install.

We transformed our best selling kontakt instrument and morphed it into its own virtual instrument!

1959. HIDDEN ELECTRO-ACOUSTIC PIANO

1959 by Sampleson is based on the Electro-Acoustic Piano patent (lifetime expired) registered in 1959. We brought it to life using spectral modeling. Sound can be described as a CP80-like but a bit more tuned due to the fewer number of strings.

1959 AUDIO DEMOS

1959 can be described as RAW. Despite the reverb included, 1959 is minded to be heavily processed with anything you want. It will melt perfectly with choruses, flangers, phasers, etc. Demos were recorded with and without effects (factory free FXs included in GarageBand).

THE EXPERIENCE OF RECREATING A FORGOTTEN ELECTRO-ACOUSTIC PIANO PATENT.

Does it sound like the original one? We don’t know, because it has never been built. And we won’t build it (at the moment). But the experience of bringing to life an instrument that never existed, was super-exciting. The resulting sound of this virtual instrument is warm, clean and bright. The expressiveness of the piano action we emulated gives it a nice and wide range of timbres. From warm lows to metallic shines on higher velocities.

The original patent proposes an idea about string vibration direction that improves the pickup effectiveness.
