10k+ plugins and counting. It's free.
Retro Keys 2 is a multi-sampled keys instrument plugin designed for Mac OS X, offering a distinctive sound inspired by classic electronic pianos. It features custom programmed patches sampled from a hardware synthesizer, creating a unique sonic character that stands apart from typical emulations of vintage models. With a 61-key range spanning from C1 to C6 and a comprehensive collection of 366 one-shot samples, Retro Keys 2 delivers rich tonal depth suitable for various musical styles.
The plugin includes three separate sound models that can be triggered simultaneously, each equipped with its own chorus-style effect controllable via dedicated SFX knobs. Users can blend these models and their effects individually using six volume controls, allowing detailed shaping of the overall sound. Additional performance parameters such as an LFO for vibrato, release, and reverb knobs provide further expressive options to enhance the instrument’s presence and texture in a mix.
Retro Keys 2 supports both AU and VST plugin formats on Mac OS X, making it accessible to a wide range of digital audio workstations. Its combination of layered samples, flexible mixing capabilities, and modulation effects make it an attractive choice for producers seeking a fresh yet nostalgic keyboard sound. Whether used for ambient pads, rhythmic comping, or melodic leads, Retro Keys 2 offers an engaging keyboard experience with a character all its own.
