PLASTIC Piano – A Synthesizer with Character for a Unique Sound
Looking for something with a real soul, even if that soul is a little… plastic? Introducing PLASTIC Piano from KNOBSTER – a synthesizer that isn’t afraid to be different. It’s not just an emulation of an electric piano; it’s an instrument that brings a unique, lo-fi and intentionally “cheap” tone to your music, perfect for creating atmospheric tracks, experimenting with sound, or adding an unexpected twist.
PLASTIC Piano: A Unique Timbre for Your Music
In a world of standard sounds, PLASTIC Piano goes its own way. Designed by KNOBSTER, this simple yet amazing instrument is inspired by the idea of creating a sound that would be both familiar (like an electric piano) and completely new, with a pronounced “plastic” hue. This characteristic makes it indispensable for genres that value the authenticity of imperfection – lo-fi, hip-hop, dub, experimental electronic, or any style where you want to move away from the generally accepted standards. The legend of using plasticine adds a mystical flair, hinting at its flexibility in shaping the sound!
PLASTIC Piano is a challenge to anyone who believes that sound quality is measured solely by its clarity. It offers an alternative – a sound with character that immediately grabs attention.
Key Features
Despite its conceptual “plasticity,” PLASTIC Piano has a sufficient set of tools for shaping a unique sound:
- Two Oscillators: The heart of the synthesizer with three different waveforms for each. Combine and mix sounds, creating rich textures – from subtle to dense. Experiment to find your perfect “plastic” sound.
- Low-Pass Filter (LP-filter): Each oscillator has its own LP-filter for independent timbre control. Cut off the high frequencies, making the sound softer or muffled – perfect for a lo-fi character.
- Velocity Sensitivity: Adds dynamics and expressiveness. Volume/timbre changes depending on the force of the key press, making the performance lively and emotional.
- ADSR Envelope: A standard tool for shaping dynamics over time. Control Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release to create anything – from sharp sounds to smooth pads.
- “Magic Button”: An intriguing feature that adds an element of surprise. What does it do? Press and find out! It’s a source of unique ideas and encouragement for experimentation.
