Product description EZkeys Classic Electrics from Toontrack is a plug-in and stand alone instrument that combines a piano player, songwriting partner, arranger and a sampled instrument and features two well beloved sampled classic electric pianos. The software features an extensive MIDI library performed by a professional session pianist with full song sections and covering all major genres such as rock, pop, country, gospel, blues and funk. Quickly laying down the foundations of a track is easy with drag-and-drop functionality. The Rhodes MK I and the Wurlitzer 200A have been the voice of several generations and are immortalized in classic songs spanning any genre from funk to soul and jazz. Captured in painstaking detail, the Classic Electrics libraries combine playability with top-class sounds, perfect for the stage or studio.
