SoundEngine has announced the availability of a sample library built from budget-minded portable keyboards with classic tones from Casio and Yamaha.

With 900MB of 25-bit samples, Junk in the Trunk delivers 110+ presets for Native Instruments Kontakt and the Logic Pro Sampler.

Yamaha, Casio, Roland, and even Sequential delivered low-cost, budget synths over the years. This collection focuses on Yamaha and Casio, including sampled sounds from: Casio CT-460, Casio CT-6000, Yamaha HS400, Yamaha CS01, Casio VL Tone, Casio SK-5, Casio Rapman, Casio CTK-530, Casio CT-6000, Casio CT-460, Casio CT-460, and Casio CT-430.

Don’t count these cheap synths out, however. Vince Clarke (Yazoo, Depeche Mode, Erasure) has often gravitated to the “up-front”, grainy, even cheesy sounds of these keyboards for his distinct sound. We’ve not only captured those baseline sounds, but we’ve also maximized the sound engines of the Logic Sampler engine with MIDI controllers, filters, and effects to create new sounds for your compositions.

Junk in the Trunk is on sale for the intro price of $39.99 USD until November 19th, 2023 (regular $59.99 USD).
