![]() There are many great ensemble sounds layering these new samples, perhaps my favourite layered sound being “Jazzy Muzak”. Cup Mute Trumpet, Harmon Mute Trombone and Bucket Mute Trombone join the current lineup providing great scope for Big Band and especially 1930’s and 1940’s style orchestrations. As the main Brass instruments are covered in the KN6000 itself (and in the basic GM2 / Nexus sound set) there is scope of a little diversity, and the opportunity has been taken! There are some good solid new Trombone and Trumpet sounds, but I am most impressed with new muted brass sounds. Next the Brass section and again this is an area in which Technics has always produced some good results. “Ritz Reeds” is a good example of Tibia, Brass and Strings with tremulant combined with a straight Reed stop. In the case of these sounds attention has been paid to giving each section of the organ its own tremulant using the LFO section in Sound Edit. ![]() This is one of the biggest failings of sound programmers trying to recreate a real Theatre Organ sound. Now onto one of my hobbyhorses! On closer examination I was pleased to find that these sounds do not use DSP Rotary or other DSP effects for an overall tremulant. ![]() I enjoyed the sounds so much that I forgave the slight problem in equating Theatre Organ with Pop! There are five in total ranging from “Theatre Warble” (a kind of Tibia Chorus) to “Fabulous Fox” and “Ritz Reeds”. ![]() The Organ group takes that even further providing Jazz and Rock tonewheel sounds but adding several great Theatre Organ sounds. I had wondered about the range of sound types on the EW01 because of its “Pop Production” leanings but the above shows that it has a very wide range of tastes covered. ![]()
