Honky Tonk Piano was sampled from a vintage Chickering upright piano – exact age unknown – primarily through a Neumann TLM 102 microphone. The piano had undoubtedly seem some action, and although it could be tuned (one note at a time) the tone of the piano was a bit on the “honky” side. The piano was sampled close-miced with lid open in mono, but each note was carefully panned to creat a stereo effect. An AKG D112 was used initially in order to capture the lower frequencies, but the TLM 102 did a fine enough job on its own. We attempted to sample this piano deeply (10 velocity layers, 2 note round robin) but in the end, round robin was only partially captured, while the velocity goals were met. Unlike most piano libraries that just record one or the other, the piano was sampled with both sustain pedal open and closed, increasing the library’s size, but allowing for more expression while playing. Once the notes were recorded, the laborious task of processing them began. Noise was removed and the piano was eq’d and compressed – yes, this is a heavily processed plugin. The end result is an EXTREMELY PURCUSSIVE and LOUD piano library that will cut through your mix. This is not a pristine, clean plugin, and the notes can be quite hard hitting! We feel this adds to the percussive nature of honky-tonk style piano playing. Although we’ve cleaned up the notes quite a bit since the VST’s initial release, we feel that too much cleaning-up starts to destroy the sound and feel of the plugin.

Synthblitz Audio Deep One v1.07 WiN

TEAM STUDiO | 31.01.2015 | 11.55 MB

Deep One is a new FM synth (in phase modulation) with 6 special operators designed to generate powerful sounds used in electronic dance music. For each operator there is the ability to control the octaves, semitones, tuning and frequency modulation. Each carrier can be controlled in phase modulation also by a dedicated LFO and there is a total of 6 LFOs available for the FM section. Unlike some other FM synths, Deep One allows the operator to add its final result the signal sent from the modulator. This technique allows you to get out of each operator sound fat and full of harmonics. The 6 operators work only in parallel to create powerful sounds but also to facilitate the programming of the end user. Deep one has 800 editable programs. All programs are useful for making electronic music and there are more than 300 arpeggios for techno.

Vocotron v1.0 VSTi WiN

Team ASSiGN | 24 FEBRUARY 2010 | 8.06 MB

Vocotron is a VST instrument plug-in for Windows that combines the functions of a sampler and vocoder. Vocotron’s keyboard is divided into two key zones, like on the classic Mellotron and Chamberlin “samplers”. However, the zone’s functions are slightly different: the left side reproduces samples and is a modulator for the integrated vocoder, and the right side sets the tone, it is the carrier for the vocoder. To extract the sound from Vocotron, just pick a chord on the right side of the keyboard, and then start pressing keys in the sample zone. By changing the chords you can get the sound of your waves in different tonalities. For a modulator, you can use embedded samples (from three internal banks) and custom wave files. For those purposes Vocotron has a built-in sampler with such possibilities as: key mapping, wave looping and reversing, pitch tuning and pitch shifting.
