Organetta

A vintage electronic Hohner organ library built for Kontakt 

Organetta is a portable vintage electronic organ made in the early 1970s by the esteemed German manufacturer Hohner. The sound is nostalgically familiar: something in between a melodica, accordion, and analog synthesizer. The El Luxe 49P used colorful switches to effortlessly transition between tones, from mellow flutes to brilliant trumpet, warm strings to haunting oboe. It had internal speakers, and came with volume-adjustable drum loops to help you practice your gnarly organ chops.

To faithfully capture all of the character of this vintage gem, Soundiron have meticulously recorded two microphone positions: up close in stereo, and direct line in. Soundiron’s Organetta comes with their favorite synth sustains, deep bass tones, staccatos, drum loops, and keystroke sound effects. Unleash its full potential by experimenting with our built-in FX rack, which offers amplifier emulation, reverb, delay, distortion, and so much more. They've also included 20 custom patches and sound-designed ambient synth pads created from the source to make this library extraordinarily playable and versatile. Whether you're looking to create a massive video game sound, bold synth bass, or just shred a slick nasal brass solo, Organetta is ready to rock!

This library comes with an adaptable LFO system, with selectable LFO shape, modulation target parameter, speed, intensity, tempo-syncing and fade-in time. You can also apply your choice of 12 lowpass, high-pass and FX filters, with assignable modulation targets such as velocity, modwheel, expression, after-touch, key position and step-sequencer table control. Soundiron's customizable arpeggiator offers a velocity table and control over arp direction, timing, swing, randomization and duration. They’ve included a key and scale lock system to constrain your notes to common scales and keys for easy melodic composition and live performance. 

The interface is rounded-out by a modular FX rack panel, with 27 different DSP effect modules that you can assign in any of 8 available slots, in any order that you wish. You’ll find classic phaser, flanger, delay, distortion, amp and cab simulators, compressors, EQ, rotator and so much more. The Reverb effect includes Soundiron's favorite convolution reverb impulse responses, including 99 different rooms, halls, chambers and outdoor environments, plus another 40 custom FX impulses to radically transform the sound and open up whole new worlds of musical possibility. They’ve added a great bank of FX rack chain factory presets to get you started!
