Built on a foundation of over 47,000 samples, Attack EP88 is an incredibly rich sounding and deeply customizable instrument, providing numerous discrete signal paths including DI, tube, contact mic, mono mic and stereo pair, unique envelopes and effects for both the electric and acoustic signals, and discrete voicing and tuning controls for all 88 keys. The only library of its kind, Attack EP88 delivers an entirely new take on the much-loved electric piano sound, in the most user-friendly and comprehensive way we could imagine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg title=\"Attack EP88 | UI\" alt=\"Attack EP88 | UI\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uvi.net\/img\/cms\/Attack_EP88\/PP_ATTACK88EP_GUI.jpg\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTACK PIANO\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 'tack' piano is a form of prepared piano most commonly seen on acoustic uprights where, as in this example, each of the hammers has had a brass tack or metal device installed on or between the mallets and the resonators. The sound is most definitely still piano but the initial attack phase is accentuated, it's more present, with a resonant metallic brilliance.\u003cbr\u003eAs it turns out this preparation is quite exceptional on electric piano. The tonal character is almost bell-like in quality, giving a completely new perspective and life to the classic electric piano sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cimg title=\"Attack EP88\" alt=\"Attack EP88\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uvi.net\/img\/cms\/Attack_EP88\/PP_ATTACK88EP_TACKS.jpg\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.uvi.net\/img\/cms\/Attack_EP88\/PP_ATTACK88EP_TACKS.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uvi.net\/img\/cms\/UVI%20Workstation\/separateur-1.png\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"approach\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eAPPROACH\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cimg title=\"Attack EP88 | Rhodes Mark 1\" alt=\"Attack EP88 - Rhodes Mark 1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uvi.net\/img\/cms\/Attack_EP88\/PP_ATTACK88EP_MARK1_1.jpg\" width=\"690\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAttack EP88 begins with a perfectly restored 88-key Rhodes Mark I prepared with a brass tack on the striking surface of each hammer. The goal of the project was to essentially deliver an entire virtual studio built around this instrument, allowing users to customize and explore it when and how they want. Doing this properly requires a number of sound sources and quite extensive recordings of each. Throughout, the utmost attention to quality and detail was made for everything from equipment selection to final editing, from UI and preset design to assembly. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cimg title=\"Attack EP88 | Approach\" alt=\"Attack EP88 | Approach\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uvi.net\/img\/cms\/Attack_EP88\/PP_ATTACK88EP_RECORDING.jpg\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.uvi.net\/img\/cms\/Attack_EP88\/PP_ATTACK88EP_RECORDING.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the acoustic signals we employed a stereo pair of Bruel and Kjaer mics, a Neumann U67 in the mono position and per-key recordings with a contact mic attached directly to the tine. For each note 8 velocities and up to 5 round-robins were recorded per-source, along with 5 round-robins for both the sustain and release samples. This was done 3 times for the electric sources, once for each of the 3 included voicings (where the tack position is shifted on the hammer, resulting in changes of color from deep to thin). Additional recordings were made to capture the pedal-up and pedal-down sounds, this was done for the mono, stereo, contact and DI signals with 7 round-robins for each. The result of this process was a working base of over 47,000 samples, a truly massive library that beautifully captured even the most subtle nuances of the piano.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"instrument\" class=\"jscontentMenu\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uvi.net\/img\/cms\/UVI%20Workstation\/separateur-1.png\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eINSTRUMENT\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cimg title=\"Attack EP88 | UI\" alt=\"Attack EP88 | UI\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uvi.net\/img\/cms\/Attack_EP88\/PP_ATTACK88EP_GUIS.jpg\" width=\"690\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe next task was to distill this enormous sample complexity into a focused and easy-to-use instrument. Attack EP88's audio sources are routed internally via three busses, one for the contact mic, one for mono and stereo mics, and one for the DI and tube channels. Each bus is equipped with a number of useful mixing tools including envelopes and effects, making it easy to dial in particular sounds or explore new ones. The user interface was carefully designed to make editing these signals as simple as possible, with acoustic sources at the top of the UI and electric at the bottom. The acoustic busses are equipped with a 3-band EQ, Dual Delay and Sparkverb, and the electric bus with distortion, the 8-voice Thorus, phaser, Dual Delay and Sparkverb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg title=\"Attack EP88 | Pedal UI\" alt=\"Attack EP88 | Pedal UI\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uvi.net\/img\/cms\/Attack_EP88\/PP_ATTACK88EP_PEDALS.jpg\" width=\"690\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cimg title=\"Attack EP88 | Voicing UI\" alt=\"Attack EP88 | Voicing UI\" src=\"http:\/\/www.uvi.net\/img\/cms\/Attack_EP88\/PP_ATTACK88EP_VOICING_1.jpg\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.uvi.net\/img\/cms\/Attack_EP88\/PP_ATTACK88EP_VOICING_1.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull control of these busses is made across 3 pages, Main, FX and Settings.
