EKX HYBRID HARP

EKX Hybrid Harp - Five very different exotic instruments merge into one unique sound design tool

Although the laws of thermodynamics thwarted the dream of inventing a perpetuum mobile a long time ago, the Hybrid Harp EKX comes pretty close to this principle. The physical laws remain intact and valid, of course, but this special and unique sound "machine" produces with its magic an unbroken and steady flow of new creative ideas. There are no limits to the tonal possibilities.

The Hybrid Harp EKX offers five special and very different instruments that are modularly combined and layered to create unique hybrid sound structures that have never been heard before. At the heart of this tone-producing group is a Style 23 harp. Their concise sound is complemented by the traditional Swedish nyckelharpa ("keyed fiddle"), two different harmoniums, a glockenspiel vibrating with a string bow and a selection of different ocarinas. If you combine the sounds of this rather strange-looking group of instruments, which under normal circumstances have no tonal relationship, you get an impressive and fantastic-sounding universe of plucked, percussive, abrasive and airy nuances, all with a wonderful, slightly dissonant character - sounds ,

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".
