Toontrack Vintage Vibes EKX - Download

In every note of this classic instrument, you can hear its inner workings - the clank of the hammers, the buzz of the reeds and the slight inconsistencies that make every note beam with its own characteristic imperfections. When played hard, it barks; when played soft, it purrs and sings. Be it in funk, jazz, rock or anything in between, it fits into any context you place it in. No wonder it's become a legend in its own right.

In fact, it's one of the few electric pianos that has stood the test of time and remains as current today as it was when it was first introduced in the 1950s. Toontrack is, of course, talking about the timeless Wurly. This EKX for EZkeys 2 features a carefully preserved and restored instrument from the mid-1970s. It was sampled both direct input (DI) and through a vintage combo amp captured with a ribbon mic, giving you two completely contrasting tones. In the broad selection of presets that are included, these tones are blended and saturated with various effects involving anything from the instrument's own tremolo to chorus, reverb, distortion and modeled amps. To add even more variation and color, several presets include subtly interwoven layers of synthesized brass, bells and atmospheres. Expect the entire tonal range from bone dry and up-close to warm to smoky, raw, greasy and gritty.

In addition to the sounds and presets, a basic MIDI library tailored for the instrument is included, ensuring that you can get started right away with some riff-driven and soulful, bluesy and funky material when you launch this EKX. No songwriter's digital toolbox should be missing one of the most defining
electric pianos ever built. If you're looking for that vintage vibe that never goes out of style, this EKX is for you.
