The #1 Electric Piano Library Ever Created

Growing up learning how to play the piano, George Duke was one of my favorite piano players. Who would have known that years later he would purchase our Neo-Soul Keys®. We set out to make the most authentic and organic electric piano library ever created and for Mr. Duke to recognize this, is a dream come true. In Keyboard Magazine, September 2013 edition Mr. Duke says this about our EP: 


"....I also incorporated one called [Gospel Musicians] Neo-Soul Suitcase, because that has a little more grit and meat on it for certain types of sounds. When I go into playing more funk, I might use Neo-Soul Suitcase, which has a lot of attack.

Neo-Soul Keys® Studio 2 is the next evolution in electric piano sounds and effects from Gospel Musicians, which features a complete architecture overhaul using our Pure Synth® structure and licensed VKFX effects. Our goal with version 2 was to make an all encompassing electric piano and effects library that will complete all of your electric piano sound and digital effects needs. Don’t think of Neo-Soul Keys® Studio 2 as just a sample library only. Is is actually a complete EP Library and effects plugin featuring not only Overloud’s VKFX library and factory presets, but 17 brand new effects that seamless integrates together with complete effects preset recall from within the library and plugin. 

Important Specifications

Every EP Imaginable

We literally sampled 20 or so electric pianos right from the source. This is an all inclusive EP/FX library with every imaginable major EP sound you can think of. Our sounds are authentic and amazingly true to the source.

Layer and Stack

You can stack up to 6-layers for a massive stacked EP. You can also mix and match different sounds and mechanical effects, all with their own dedicated keyrange, velocity range, AMP, and even a random function to simulate real-feel.

Windows and Mac

All of our sounds are available for the Mac OSX 10.12+ and Windows 7+. They are also available on iOS, but this is a separate purchase on the Appstore.

M1 Optimized

All of our sounds are also available for the new M1 Macs natively, so no need for running in Rosetta mode. Our sounds are CPU optimized for the M1 Macs for maximum performance.

All Major DAWs

All of our sounds will run in all major DAWs: Logic Pro X, Mainstage, Abelton Live, Reason VST, Studio One, Machine, Reaper, Digital Performer, and many others.

High Quality Streaming

We spent 2-years optimizing our streaming engine for low RAM consumption and fast loading. Most of our sounds will load less than a second, even if the sound is over 2GB in size.

NOW AVAILABLE

M1 Mac Native COMPATIBILITY

For testing, we have created an instrument track Logic Pro X, with Pure Synth (M1 native), using the NO MORE DARK preset. The track is playing a chord with 6 notes. We can duplicate that track 116 times, and play all 116 tracks at the same time without dropouts. That's almost 700 notes of polyphony using a 16" MacBook Pro model with 8 performance and 2 efficiency cores.

Stacking and Layering

Stack up to six sounds at one time for an amazingly layered EP sound all with their own synthesis parameters. Add multiple release effects featuring mechanics, keyoff, and all sorts of amazing idiosyncrasies of a real electromechanical piano that make it special. 

30-Day Money-Back Guaranteed

Outstanding Effects from Overloud™

In partnership with Overloud™, we have the full version of the famous Vintage Keyboard FX Suite of effects readily available. We also have licensed a ton of other high quality effects, all with very lush, warm, and vintage sounds.


Many people already remember the VKFX suite from the electric piano dsays. Overloud® prides itself on creating the most accurate representation of the actual hardware, and meticulously  programming each transistor and amp down to the circuit level. These effects are included free within our Pure Synth® Platinum architecture.   



From the Original Hardware Source

Everyone knows the artist known as D'Angelo and his live concert where he is using a Yamaha CP70 the entire concert live. Well we set our goal to add this amazing EP to the Studio 2 version and boy did we pull it off. Our CP70 alone could stand as its own plugin. We sampled the DI, and the ambient sound all mixed together for an ultra realistic version of the classic D'Angelo CP70 sound with the same ambient feel as the real thing. 

Sold Separately on the AppStore

Experience the same exact, sounds, presets, and samples on your iPad or iPhone Device. You can save sample space by storing samples on your external SSD or Thumb drive and experience ultra fast sample loading. Our iOS apps have the same user experience as the desktop.

Introduction


Neo-Soul Keys Studio 2 is the next evolution in electric piano sounds and effects from Gospel Musicians, which features a complete architecture overhaul using our Pure Synth structure and licensed VKFX effects from Overloud. Our goal with version 2 was to make an all encompassing electric piano and effects library that will complete all of your electric piano sound and digital effects needs. Don't think of Neo-Soul Keys Studio 2 as just a sample library only. Is is actually a complete EP Library and effects plugin featuring not only Overloud's VKFX library and factory presets, but 17 brand new effects that seamlessly integrates together with shared effects preset recall from within the library and plugin. The interface has a complete overhaul and designed for ease of use for novices, and extensive control for power users. Finally, we up'd the ante with 8-Brand new electric pianos that features the clean and well manicured side of your EP experience. Don't worry, we still have the dirt and grit that you liked from version 1, but now you have the ability to dial in your own grit given that each of the 6 sound slots are completely programmable, which allows you to load any sound into any slot. You even have the option to load the same sound into multiple slots for a vast amount of layering possibilities.

8 New Electric Pianos


Our goal this time around was to represent the cleaner side of the electric piano spectrum. We know all previous versions represented the dirty side, so that is still there as well. We wanted to find rare pianos that represent different and unique nuances in sound, with the goal of extreme playability as the utmost importance. This is why many of our high end piano sounds have up to 1,000 samples, representing up to 30 velocity levels. So now you have both clean and dirty sounds in one library.

We are also used very sophisticated Spectral Isolation techniques for our mechanical effects. By using spectral synthesis, we were able to, more precisely, isolate things such as tines, dirt, hits, clunks, and other mechanical noises from the actual pianos. This way you can add as much mechanical noises and, tines as you wish:

  1. Nu Suitcase - A well tuned and manicured suitcase that represents the clean and beautiful side, with beautiful bell tine noises in the low velocities. This EP was sampled from the DI, suitcase speakers, and mic'd ambient harp. It comes in a DI and fully concatenated stereo version with all of the tonal goodness from each source.
  2. Suitcase 88 - This is another clean suitcase with a very unique and interesting tine attack. This is great for tine lovers.
  3. Nu Mark I Stage - This is a very clean and dark sounding Stage EP. The uniqueness in this piano lies its deep and rich lows with a ton of bark and expression.
  4. Dilluh Stage - Sampled from JFILT from Very Sick Beats who one of the top Neo-Soul Hip-Hop producers on YouTube. This EP is great for Hip-Hop Jazz, Neo-Soul, and that J-Dilla, Roots/Slum vibe. It is clean with well placed quarks, which makes it ideal for that dirty stuff.
  5. Nu Mark V - We updated our Mark V with a super clean and chocolate sound. The expression is deep and barks tremendously.
  6. Mark III Tines - This is for tine lovers who absolutely love the sound of tines, which is reminiscent of a Mark III EK sound.
  7. Nu Wurly - This is a well manicured, maintained, and serviced Wurly piano that can fit with any type of genre.
  8. D'Ang CP70 - There would be no soul, without the sound of recording artist D'Angelo, who often performs live on a Yamaha CP70 Electric Grand. A CP70 sample library is a rare find and could easily cost half the price of this library alone, so we sampled a well manicured and serviced version, which sounds very authentic. The sources sampled were the DI, AMP, and an XY Mic for the ambient tone. The result is a beautifully sampled version that will give you that classic D'Angelo live sound.
