Five Vintage Keyboards
The Vintage Keyboard Series contains five Vintage Studio Keyboards: CP70 Electric Grand Piano, B3 Hammond Organ, Hohner Clavinet D6, Wurlitzer 200A and the Rhodes 54 Suitcase Piano. Each volume includes multiple stems (e.g. Neumann u87, Coles, Neve, AKG featured microphones), up to 3 independently processed analog DI signal chains, and vintage pristine amplifiers and cabinets, such as the classic VOX, the powerful Mesa Boogie, and 2 truly unique Leslie Cabinets.
We sampled every available pickup, combination, and all the incredibly deep options, including vast velocity layers on the Clavinet. We recorded both DI amplifiers and the pure acoustic tone and resonance on our CP-70. We captured prepared articulations across many of our vintage keyboards, as well as individual plucking of tines on the Rhodes 54 and Wurli. We truly included every option we could, from the deep and emotive microphone perspectives, mixes, and saturated tape signals across most of the Keyboards to the independently sampled Leslie Cabinets offering you both the classic modeled approach, and our industry-defining analog speed-based interval system on the Organ.
We purposely chose to record the Vintage Organ in its natural state, using immaculately maintained Leslie cabinets. In fact, we used two independent Leslies (and blew up a third): one to capture the genre defining rotations at all speeds, and another with a modified motor to record the pure unhindered tone of the Leslie itself.
The Electric Grand Piano is like a normal piano, except that the vibration of the strings is converted by electric pickups, similar to an Electric Guitar. The Vintage CP-70 contains standard (Sustains, Staccato, Staccatissimo w/ RR) and a large assortment of prepared articulations (Plucked Strings, Picked Strings, Muted Strings, Harmonics etc.) recorded inside the piano.
The Studio Clavinet sounds even more like a rich and powerful electric guitar, with 2 individual pickups that can be soloed, combined, and inverted. The sustain samples were captured with all available pick up options and at multiple dynamics, allowing you to customize the sound in incredible detail. The Clavinet is ready to bring the funk!
The Suitcase Piano contains both standard (Sustains and Staccato w/ RR) and prepared articulations (Plucked Tines and Muted Tines). We also opened the Suitcase and recorded the insides of it, plucking the tines and gently muting them for different types of sounds.
The Studio Wurli contains both standard (Sustains and Staccato w/ RR) and prepared (Muted Tines) articulations. We also opened the Wurlitzer and recorded the internal mechanics, including gently muting the tines for a different type of sound and recording the internal speaker separately.
We wanted to create something definitive and unrivaled, with a range of instruments truly authentic to the originals in every possible way. These keyboards will never need to be sampled again.

Deep Options
What sets the Studio Vintage Keyboard Series apart from competitors is not just the great recordings, programming, or stunning layout, but also the wealth of features that allow you to dial in precisely the sound you want. You can control the dynamic feel of the piano, resonance, Pick Ups, phase relationship, ADSR, or the sounds of fingers on keys.
Superior Reverbs
We sampled the Keyboards through two of the best studio reverbs in the world: TC6000 and Bricasti, giving you instant access and control over two industry-defining studio reverbs. We sampled the keyboards using a pristine signal path designed by some of the world's best engineers.
World-Class Microphones
The Vintage Keyboard Series gives you access to the best studio microphones, including Neumann u87’s, KM 184’s, Neve SE Ribbons, Royers, and AKG 414’s, and Coles. Along with the mixed microphone option, you also have access to DI Clean, DI Crush and DI Warm.
