Toontrack EKX: Time Machine
Expansion Pack for EZKeys 2
In Tune With The Future
Inspired by the shimmering haze of the timeless tones that propelled the synth-fueled revolution of the '80s but reimagined with today's technology, this EKX for EZkeys 2 presents a sonic retrospective with an all-new perspective.
If you're looking for sounds evidently rooted in nostalgic charm but with modern depth and clarity, this is the go-to expansion for EZkeys 2.
The main underlying instrument in this EKX was inspired by one of the most iconic synths of the '80s.
From that, numerous different patches were modeled to create the best-possible width.
To further shape each sound, additional sampled hardware synths and effects were then layered, blended and refined to create fresh and one-of-a-kind textures of warm and analog-sounding tones ideal for any type of modern pop production.
In total, a staggering 80 presets are included, all of which conveniently are organized in four distinct categories: Keys, Lead & Bass, Plucks & Bells as well as Pads.
Combined, this will give you a pallet of sound that covers anything from characteristically crisp and glassy piano-like tones to driven leads, punchy basses and warm analog pads - all with an apparent nod to the past but with an up-to-date twist.
As always, each preset includes its own control hub in which you easily can tweak
the underlying parameters to perfectly suit your mix.
This is an expansion where some of the most familiar sounds of the past are reinvented in unfamiliar new costumes.
If your songs call for synths that have a vintage vibe but that are completely in tune with the future, this one's for you.
