Scarbee Keyboard Gold Bundle

Keyboard Gold Bundle description:

The Scarbee Keyboard Gold Bundle is a special collection including Scarbee Vintage Keyboard FX and Scarbee Vintage Keyboard Collection - K2

The Vintage Keyboard FX VST/AU plugin is a virtual rack packed with outstanding models of a range of different vintage analogue effects processors. The VKFX completes Scarbee’s vision for vintage keyboard sample libraries which faithfully capture the sounds of the original masters – right down to the effects processing which was often a key element in defining a classic instrument’s unique ‘voice’.

Loaded into the VKFX are eight premium quality effects processors, including the essential electric piano preamp with stereo tremolo, a Compressor, Wah (Envelope Filter), Phase Shifter, Chorus Unit, Overdrive, Tape Delay, and a Valve Amp modelled on arguably the most popular device ever used to amplify electric keyboards (and the model includes the four spring reverb).

VKFX is the perfect partner for any vintage keyboard instrument, and a tantalising environment in which to enjoy manipulating effects on other sound sources.

Scarbee Vintage Keyboard Collection - K2 includes 11 sounds and sample sets of classic vintage keyboards from the 60s and 70s!

Scarbee C.E.P. (Classic Electric Piano) is the sound of a hot-rodded wonderful electric piano from the 70s with expression and dynamics ranging from warm and mellow, to bright and ‘barking’, but can also produce a dulcet bell-like tone very suited to jazz, funk and R&B. E.E.P. (Edgy Electric Piano) has a dynamic and versatile sound and tends more towards an 'edgier' sound. Certainly, it can deliver a 'soft and sweet' tone, but its light action allows players to easily deliver a performance with more 'bite'.

Scarbee S.E.P. (Sticky Electric Piano) has a sound that sonically lies somewhere between the reedy bite of the E.E.P. and the purer bell tone of the C.E.P. The result is a vibraphone type tone with a very percussive envelope and almost no dynamic response due to it's "sticky hammers".

F.E.P.( Funky Electric Piano) has a big round 'twanging' bottom end and a top end which is wiry and tight. For many, this is as close as they will ever get to a sound which could compete with the cut of an electric guitar. In the the sharp tone and percussive playing style made it a first choice for many funk recordings where it complemented funk guitar rhythms like no other instrument. We sampled each of the 4 standard pickup settings: CA, CB, DA, DB - in both a standard version and a version with mutebar switched ON, resulting in 8 unique sounds! We also made it possible to switch Standard/Mute with Mod-Wheel.
