SEE THE TRAILER

Oozing, tape-processed Keys

Introducing FORGED KEYS. Designed to offer classic keys sounds, while giving the option for OOZY, ANALOG, LOFI sounds, all in the package.

FORGED KEYS offers Wurlitzer, Rhodes, & Juno within a single plugin. With many of the patches having been recorded to tape & dipped in a light acid (hydrochloric acid diluted with water). While others are clean, recorded directly from the instruments.

Bleeding with character

In addition to the inherent lofi qualities of many of the samples, FK-1 offers oozy & adjustable DETUNE and TREMOLO options to add grit and character to the sounds, along with echo & reverb effects.

FORGED KEYS also offers a spread feature, which spreads each voice across the stereo spectrum. (Similar effect to many classic synths like the Prophet-08 - this pans the voices rather than using a pseudo-stereo effect).
