DARKER, MORE UNNERVING PIANO TONES
FOUR DISTINCT SOUNDS
RAW
The untouched, unfiltered sound of the upright piano, with all its natural resonance and eerie tonal imperfections. Perfect for a dark, authentic piano presence in your tracks.
REVERSE
A reversed layer that transforms the piano’s natural decay into a haunting, otherworldly swell. Great for building tension and creating ghostly atmospheres.
DROPPED
A pitch-shifted, bass-heavy layer that adds a deep, unsettling rumble to your compositions. Ideal for dark textures, ambient pads, or grounding horror soundscapes.
RADIO
A lo-fi, filtered sound reminiscent of an old radio transmission, adding a vintage, distorted edge to your music. Use it to evoke nostalgia or enhance the unsettling atmosphere in your tracks.
SIMPLE INTERFACE
Each sound layer can be controlled with its own volume slider and pan knob giving you complete control of the sound, whether you decided to layer or keep things solo
SOUND SHAPING TOOLS
AWAKENING
Adjusts the attack, letting you soften or sharpen the piano’s initial impact, perfect for transitioning between subtle atmospheres and more pronounced, percussive tones.
DISSOLUTION
Controls the release, allowing you to extend or shorten the decay of each note. Ideal for creating either sustained, ghostly echoes or tighter, more contained sounds.
ETHER
A convolution reverb that adds depth and atmosphere, Ether immerses the piano in spaces ranging from eerie chambers to vast, unsettling voids.
TIMEWARP
A delay effect that adds haunting echoes and repeats, enabling you to create dynamic, evolving textures that bring a sense of movement to your sound.
NOISE
Modifies the level of release-triggered noise, adding realism and a gritty edge to each note’s ending, enhancing the instrument’s vintage character.
LURKING DREAD
A powerful warping tool that distorts and transforms the sound beyond recognition, ideal for pushing the piano’s natural tones into unknown, unnerving territory.
LUCKY
