The Idea & Process Cassette Keys.02, a successor of Cassette Keys.01, wasn’t created to replace it, but rather to make things different, bigger, and to make use of the new .02 interface. In fact, both of those instruments complement each other very well. Cassette Keys.02 contains two instruments, both inspired by classic FM keys from the 80s, but expanded with other synthesis techniques plus even a little sampling to achieve interesting transient sounds. Each instrument contains 5 dynamic layers and was recorded with 3 different cassette decks. Overall, there are 2193 samples – 365 samples per deck, plus 3 noise samples from each deck (5,73 GB of uncompressed 24-bit WAV files). The End Result Useful and Fun Production Tool: If you like vintage sounds and you’re looking for something to enhance your production toolbox, then this product will be for you. Simulated Round Robin: Makes faster note passages sound more realistic and adds to the overall nonlinearity of the instrument – available in Kontakt and SFZ versions only. Features Simulated round-robin 12 basic presets (with and without simulated round-robin for each deck)
