Our ambition was to build what would be the ultimate electric piano to us.
Complete Physical Modeling and precise tone adjustment were the key factors to make a lively instrument you can adjust very precisely and still intuitively.

Vintage vibes at your fingertips

OTR88 approaches electric piano synthesis like no other emulation ever did.

OTR88 doesn't use any sample which means :

  • Seamless velocity response
  • Infinite tone customisation for each key individually
  • Lightning fast loading
  • Less than 10Mb hard drive space required

Physical modeling

Watch videos... readmore

OTR88 is based on a powerful physical modeling engine that doesn’t simply mimic the instrument but captures the full expressivity of the original model.

From 3D tine movements to pickup interaction, no samples were used so you can enjoy seamless velocity response and full tonal control of the timbre.

Full tonal control

OTR88 electric piano introduces our new "Per-key-Settings" feature that enables musicians to easily and quickly customize the tonal response of the instrument throughout the full keyboard range.

This is achieved through a "One for All & All for One" graph-based interface that lets you set all settings for one key or one setting for all keys and experience full control over the tone.

With its highly intuitive editing approach, you will find yourself designing a new piano preset from scratch in minutes.

If you have ever experienced a real electric piano, you'll enjoy being able to tweak all those mechanisms and do in a few clicks what used to take an afternoon with a screwdriver and buckets of sweat.

To complete the picture, a scalar microtonal file import feature has been implemented.

Old-School FX pedals

A bunch of FXs to get those vintage tones out of the box

To help you get the classic sounds that has made electric piano part of history, we added a series of effects you can chain and move freely as you would with real stompboxes plus hear on the fly how the sound is affected.

These effects include: a wah pedal, a tremolo, a phaser, a flanger, a distortion, a chorus and a reverb.

Midi learn and full automation enables you to control any effect parameter with any midi controller.

 

Preset management

OTR88 preset manager allows you to create and browse presets from your hard drive.

The presets have been designed so that you can either change the whole patch or keep the piano internal parameters independent.

Midi learn and automation

OTR88 features full midi automation for all effects controls and piano global parameters (volume, tone, sustain pedal).

This automation has been made as simple as possible with an intuitive midi-learn feature.

Parameters that are driven by the same midi controller will be automatically grouped.

For deeper control, OTR88 gives you access to the complete automation list; this lets you adjust specific ranges for each parameter.
