Perpetuated in numerous hits from the golden ages of funk, soul and British pop, they have become immortal in terms of tone. Even though production of these two instruments since long has stopped, their characteristic sounds keep resonating vividly in all types of contemporary music production. This makes these gems every bit as relevant in any songwriter\u2019s toolbox today as they were back when they were first brought to market \u2013 decades ago.<\/p>\n<p>Welcome to the very definition of modern retro.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-12 col-md-10 col-lg-5 ps-lg-4\">\n<div class=\"tt-feature-spotlight\">\n<div style=\"height: 50px;\" class=\"d-block d-md-none\"><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"mt-0\">Two carefully captured classic electric pianos<\/li>\n<li>Recorded at Studio 9, Sveriges Radio, Sweden using only the best of the best in modern and vintage equipment<\/li>\n<li>All sounds are designed to be mix-ready.

This setting includes compression, amp\/cab simulation, delay and of course, the unmistakable wah-wah.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dirty Fuzz:<\/strong><br \/>\nA quite distorted sound saturated with reverb, various amp\/cam simulation and a knob for an optional phaser effect.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Filter Funk:<\/strong><br \/>\nA round but bright staccato-like sound that brings you right back to the golden age of funk in the \u201970s. Wah-wah and tape delay!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Guitar Like:<\/strong><br \/>\nJust like the name implies, this preset brings out the Clavinet&#8217;s string sound in great way. Perfect for rhythmic passages or guitar-like riffs. A true funk sound, at its best!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Modern Ballad:<\/strong><br \/>\nTremolo, inverse reverb and a subtle chorus makes this setting the perfect match for a modern soulful ballad.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CA DI:<\/strong><br \/>\nThe factory CA direct in setting.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CB DI:<\/strong><br \/>\nThe factory CB direct in setting.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DA DI:<\/strong><br \/>\nThe factory DA direct in setting.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DB DI:<\/strong><br \/>\nThe factory DB direct in setting.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-sm-6\">\n<h5>Retro Pianet<\/h5>\n<p><strong>Clean Amp:<\/strong><br \/>\nA quite unfiltered signal amplified by a low-gain amp and a classic 4&#215;12 cabinet. A very allround sound that works in anything from a soul ballad to a funk song.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DI:<\/strong><br \/>\nDirect in signal with optional knobs for tremolo settings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dirty Amp<\/strong><br \/>\nA stomp box and a vintage amp give this preset an extra gritty sound, perfect for leads, staccato-like playing or general riffing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dream Vibrato:<\/strong><br \/>\nA classic amp and a 1&#215;8 speaker simulation together with vibrato and spring reverb produce a distinctly distorted, very vintage and organ-like sound. Works well in anything from a ballad scenario to an uptempo \u201970s rock song.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hi Gain Distortion:<\/strong><br \/>\nA slightly muffled sound with a roll-off on the highs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jazz Bells:<\/strong><br \/>\nWith its obvious tremolo and bright reverb, this setting brings out the bell-like sound in the Pianet. Great for a jazzy ballad!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Phase Fuzz:<\/strong><br \/>\nWith its strong fuzz and phaser saturation, this sound almost elevates in the stereo field. Great for anything from big, open chords to tight funky riffs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rotary:<\/strong><br \/>\nA relatively clean sound that combines a classic cabinet with a delicate room reverb. Allround!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Smooth Funk:<\/strong><br \/>\nIt doesn&#8217;t get funkier than this. Wah-wah, classic amp\/cab combo, tape delay and moderate compression produces a sound that brings you right back to the \u201970s.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Space Ballad:<\/strong><br \/>\nA tremolo-driven sound perfect for any ambient composition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"height: 50px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"height: 50px;\" class=\"d-none d-md-block\"><\/div>\n<p>\n    <\/div>    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":3065237,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[34,1061],"product_tag":[1206],"class_list":{"0":"post-3056313","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-ezkeysline","7":"product_cat-ekx","8":"product_tag-classic-ekx","10":"first","11":"instock","12":"virtual","13":"taxable","14":"purchasable","15":"product-type-simple"},"composite_virtual":false,"composite_layout":"","composite_add_to_cart_form_location":"","composite_editable_in_cart":false,"composite_sold_individually_context":"","composite_shop_price_calc":"","composite_components":[],"composite_scenarios":[],"bundled_by":[],"bundle_stock_status":"instock","bundle_stock_quantity":null,"bundle_virtual":false,"bundle_layout":"","bundle_add_to_cart_form_location":"","bundle_editable_in_cart":false,"bundle_sold_individually_context":"","bundle_item_grouping":"","bundle_min_size":"","bundle_max_size":"","bundle_price":[],"bundled_items":[],"bundle_sell_ids":[],"group_of_quantity":0,"min_quantity":0,"max_quantity":"","exclude_order_quantity_value_rules":"no","exclude_category_quantity_rules":"no","combine_variations":"no","tt_product_image":"https:\/\/www.toontrack.com\/app\/uploads\/product\/retro-electrics-ekx\/jpg\/TT604_RetroElectricsEKX_product-image.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.toontrack.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/3056313","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.toontrack.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.toontrack.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.toontrack.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3056313"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.toontrack.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3065237"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.toontrack.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3056313"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.toontrack.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=3056313"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.toontrack.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=3056313"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.toontrack.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=3056313"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
