Product Overview

Cassette Keys.02 serves as an evolution of its predecessor, offering two instruments inspired by classic 80s FM keys while integrating additional synthesis techniques and sampling for unique transient sounds. This library captures the essence of vintage tones, making it suitable for a range of musical styles that benefit from a nostalgic touch.

Details

The library features five dynamic layers across 2,193 samples, recorded on three different cassette decks, each contributing distinct tonal characteristics. The samples include noise elements that can be adjusted independently, allowing for a more realistic sound when layering notes. This design choice helps avoid noise stacking, ensuring clarity even in complex passages.

Each instrument's sound varies significantly depending on the deck used, with options ranging from full, warm tones to sharp, glassy transients. The interface is streamlined for quick sound design, featuring convolution reverb with custom impulses and simulated round-robin functionality to enhance realism in faster passages. The library is compatible with multiple formats, including Kontakt, Ableton Live, and SFZ, providing flexibility for integration into various workflows.
