Welcome to the continent of the Great Bear. Russian Masters is a CD-ROM for the Emu family of Emulator IVX, EIV, E64, E6400, EIIIX, ESI-32 and EIII samplers which incorporates 80 banks of digital instrumentation from the former Soviet Union and parts of Asia. These folk and ethnic acoustic instruments were recorded by Martin Kiszko from the U.K. The 600 megabyte CD-ROM includes looped and unlooped versions of many of the instruments. In addition, all solo instrument trills were recorded in half-step intervals, so when playing more than one note, you will hear the real trills (no digital pitch shifting at any interval).

73 Stage Piano Collection

TEAM SONiTUS | 18 June 2012 | 1.72 GB

Halion®/EXS24®/WAV 44.1 Khz/16 bits/GiG/SXT

The 73 Stage Piano Collection finally brings the holy grail of electric pianos to you: The Fender™ Rhodes® piano. While other CDs have the sound of the Rhodes piano, they only have 1 or 2 samples per note. This way it’s impossible to let it sound real when you play it on your keyboard – you don’t have the dynamics of the original one. You’re not even close. Realsamples finally sampled one vintage Rhodes out of many units with 16 (!) multisamples per note!. To get the most natural sound, the piano was recorded directly from the pickup through the preamp section of a Mindprint™ DTC high-end preamp while bypassing any equalization to ensure the best sound possible. Recorded in 96 Khz and 24 bits resolution, the signal was downsampled finally to 44.1 Khz/16 bits for normal use. The CD set also includes ready-to-play presets for Steinberg™’s Halion® and Emagic™’s EXS24®. “Light” versions of the presets are included, too. No further processing has been applied to the CD, so you don’t get that over-processed sound of other sample CDs – just the great, deep, lush and full sound of a classic Rhodes piano.
