Keys of the 70's 4+

A nice AUv3 collection of 5 quality keyboard sounds that come with good effects. The result is a versatile plugin that can produce numerous sounds that have a realistic flavor of the keyboards of the 70s. For example, the Wurlitzer 200 can be run through various amp cabinets, mono/stereo tremolo, chorus, reverb, equalizer, and distortion. The sound sculpting options feels a lot like the real hardware. Because the core sounds are solid, the effects tweaking adds to the creative flow. Honestly, this plugin competes well against competition twice the price. Kudos to the developer!

I purchased this app mainly for the Rhodes and Wurly sounds. To my ear the Rhodes sounds the most “real” out of all the keyboard apps currently available on iOS. When I initially tried to load it into Cubasis it wouldn’t show up under my AUv3 plugins. I reached out to the developer, Julien, and within 30 minutes they responded and said they’d look into it. Within about 3-4 hours the app was updated and ready for download on the AppStore. Wow!!! Awesome customer service. That alone is a reason to support this developer! Buy Julien’s apps!

I have quite a few “real” instrument plugins. Module, Neo Soul, etc, and overall I find myself coming back to this one the most. The versatile reverb, plentiful effects, and the added ADSR envelope give lots of options for sound tweaking that you don’t really find on other similar apps. Makes for some really nice pad sounds on top of the usual e-piano. Not to mention the Wurly preset just sounds wonderful.
