Description
Vintage Keys is a free Splice INSTRUMENT piano preset pack from Spitfire Audio's LABS collection, built from a Fender Rhodes Seventy Three suitcase piano. Its four patches range from mellow and soulful to raspy and overdriven, with the instrument's warm, gritty character suited to both songs and media scoring.
The four presets are Twinned Up, The Seventy Three, Sign Of The Tines, and Nothing But Cabinet. Expression, vibrato intensity and speed, tone, and reverb controls let you move from a restrained electric-piano bed to a more animated or effected part, while the key-mechanism thud in Sign Of The Tines can add rhythmic texture.
