Full Bucket Music has introduced a new software instrument based on the classic 1979 Lambda ES-50 polyphonic preset synthesizer by Korg.
In the beginning was the PE-20002, and it was good – but not perfect. And so the good folks at KORG decided to enhance their polyphonic ensemble and name it Λ (Lambda, a Greek letter) as they also did with its siblings, the Δ (Delta) DL-50 and the Σ (Sigma) KP-30.
Seriously: A direct competitor of that time, the famous Solina string ensemble, is sounding great because of its patented unique Ensemble effect. But if you switch that effect off you will get some basic organ-style stuff with a single oscillator bank and paraphonic articulation. The PE-2000 is much more than that because it features three oscillator banks, and the Lambda even tops it with fully polyphonic articulation (well, up to specific degree), an additional Percussive section, and a Chorus effect (called Chorus Phase although it is not a Phaser).
