Mokafix Audio has released two new Electric Piano plug-ins: Blue Reeds and Glue Reeds. Both are available for Windows as VST instrument plug-ins, Glue Reeds is free; Blue Reeds costs €49.

Blue Reeds is a faithful recreation of a Wurli Reed electric piano based on reactive synthesis. It captures the famous Reed EP sound by reproducing both the reed motion and pickup response. Particular attention was given to the electrostatic pickup response to bring back that characteristic buzzy tone on lower register and overall edgy sound.

Main features:

• Seamless dynamic response.
• 4 basic piano presets.
• Advanced physical parameters to tweak the basic sounds.
• 3 slots with a choice between 7 stompbox FX.
• Amp sim with spring reverb.
• Cab sim.

Glue Reeds is a faithful recreation of an electric piano that used sticky pads to trigger the reeds. It is based on reactive synthesis and captures that reed EP sound by reproducing both the reed motion and pickup response. Although the original had no much dynamic response, this virtual emulation let you recover some dynamic by changing the velocity curve.

Main features:

• Seamless dynamic response.
• Velocity curve control.
