Toontrack has announced the release of the second new expansion developed exclusively for the new EZkeys 2 format.

Specifically designed with the singer-songwriter in mind, the Singer-Songwriter EKX features a meticulously maintained, tuned and captured upright piano from the 1970s, carefully selected for its soft, earthy and delicate timbre.

The instrument, a meticulously maintained, tuned and captured Schimmel* upright piano from the 1970s, was recorded through a Neve 8068 console at the renowned RMV Studios in Stockholm, Sweden. With rustic ceiling beams, both wood and stone wall surfaces as well as a soft hardwood floor that acts like a cushioning membrane, the RMV room is ideal for capturing acoustic instruments.

To showcase the entire tonal scope of this classic piano, it was recorded using three pairs of stereo microphones placed in different positions around the instrument and the room. Aside from the piano itself, a broad selection of mix-ready presets as well as a basic collection of MIDI are included.

The Singer-Songwriter EKX is available to purchase for 89 EUR/USD at Best Service and from the Toontrack store.
