EKX VINTAGE UPRIGHT

EKX Vintage Upright - The unadulterated sound of an Östlind & Almquist piano from the 1930s

The Vintage Upright EKX offers a lovingly and very detailed sampled Östlind & Almquist piano, a traditional Swedish brand from the late 19th century, which is best known for the superior quality of their instruments, which were made with great craftsmanship. This piano was manufactured in the 1930s and has the typical and unmistakable sound of an excellent piano: the finest, shimmering silver highs, concise and clear mids and compact basses full of warmth - a sound that was carefully captured in one of the best recording studios in the world.

Please note : This EZkeys 2 sound library extension is a so-called "Legacy EKX" as it was originally recorded as a former EZkeys 1 sound library. In contrast to the sound library extensions produced exclusively for EZkeys 2, a "Legacy EKX" can be loaded and used both in the previous version EZkeys 1 and in the current version EZkeys 2. Users who still only use EZkeys 1 and do not want to switch to EZkeys 2 can still easily expand their existing EZkeys 1 with "Legacy EKXs".
