MARKUS 88

The first Spectral Modeled Electric Piano based on real samples entirely rebuilt by modeling. Offers the real sound and feel of a tine-based electric piano in only 25MB.

SPECTRAL MODELED ELECTRIC PIANO

We decoded and analyzed a vintage electric piano sinewaves spectrum (a tine-based electric piano 88 Suitcase) for every note and every velocity, and recreated it manually. When you play a note on Markus, exactly the same sound of the original instrument will be generated (no samples involved).

And we did it manually. Every single harmonic was tuned by ear. Like in acoustic piano tuning, the final touch is always made manually, and no tuning software or algorithm is able to replace that.

DECODING THE ELECTRIC PIANO GENOME

Every sound in nature is a complex spectrum of harmonics. The combination of those harmonics makes every sound unique and easy to be identified by humans. Doing the reverse engineering for finding the harmonics that make a tine-based electric piano sound like a real one is a complex task. We disassembled tine-based electric piano timbre into the minimal parts a sound can be split. And reassembled into a fully expressive virtual instrument.
