Keyboards contains two world-class instruments—the very ones used on countless recordings by Grammy-winning artists. The set includes a rare Wurlitzer Model 214 “Blacktop”—identical to the famous model 200a with the addition of four 8” speakers, a larger amplifier, and more direct output choices. It is the model of choice for studio recording, and only a few studios own them.
Four velocity layers and key-release damping make this instrument completely authentic and “fast” to play. The Clavinet is a vintage D6 model from the mid 1970’s. Restored and tuned especially for this disc, it was sampled in the “A/C” pickup configuration for the most versatility. The multi-samples include three velocities and the all-important key-release “pluck” that many other sampled instruments lack. Presented in Reason NN-XT, EXS24, Kontakt, HALion and MachFive formats.
