Electric

Electric is a synthesizer that reproduces the authentic sound of the Rhodes® and Wurlitzer® electric pianos. Electric was created in collaboration with Applied Acoustics Systems (AAS) and is based on the same advanced physical modeling synthesis technology found in their acclaimed Lounge Lizard instrument. Physical modeling synthesis uses complex mathematics to reproduce the behavior of the individual physical components of an instrument—in this case the mallets, tines, pickups, dampers and other parts that interact to produce the unique sounds of electric pianos—all in real time. Because the sounds are synthesized, not sampled, it's possible to quickly tweak each component and customize the instrument to your personal taste. You can also go far beyond the capabilities of the originals and create amazing new sounds while still retaining the warm qualities of an electric piano. Electric integrates beautifully into Ableton Live's workflow and brings the unmistakable classic sounds of these instruments to Live users.
