ALTERA KEYS features 20 classic core instruments inspired by the Rhodes, Clavinet, Wurlitzer, DX7, JD-800 and others. Each sound has been lovingly crafted from scratch using synthesis & physical modeling to breathe new life into these venerable electric pianos & synthesizers and offer a truly never-before-heard take on them.

You can get started immediately with one of the 277 factory snapshots spanning bread-and-butter, workstation-style sounds, atmospheric pads and textures, hybrid instruments, and far-out experimental presets.

Or, build your own dream keyboard layer-by-layer with just the right elements to fit perfectly in your track! Need a punchy clav with a hard-hitting low-frequency thump attack? A glassy DX7-style sound with full-spectrum tines? An airy, swirling atmospheric EP? Whatever you need, you can build it from:
KEYS - Selects from one of the 20 core instruments
TINES / RELEASES - Separately select and adjust the mechanical attack & release noises (13 possible sound sources) when pressing and releasing keys
PAD - Select one of 10 gorgeous, sustaining tonal pads to get the perfect workstation sound, add body, and more
SHIMMER - Selects one of 20 breathtaking shimmer reverbs based on the 20 core instruments.

It's incredibly easy to tweak layer volume and swap sound sources all from the main UI, but you can go a step deeper and adjust envelopes, velocity curve, tail lengths, and the analog-modeled preamp from the Sound tab.
(Note: We made sure to only include truly useful controls even on this page, so as not to overwhelm with choices and details, and make every tweak impactful.)

For a finishing touch, the built-in Console FX rack & mixer provides over 40 inserts including NI's latest, beautiful phaser, flanger, chorus, and reverb, not to mention plenty of other digital & analog effects that we make plentiful use of in the factory presets.

ALTERA KEYS is an ideal all-in-one rig for live performance, worship music, pop, jazz, blues, and R&B. But thanks to its extensive hybrid, synth, and pad capabilities, it also works great for atmospheric film/TV/game scoring, EDM, new age, ambient and far beyond.
The library is available now for the introductory price of $129 (MSRP $149) through June 18th, with full NKS compatibility and works with the free Kontakt 7 Player!
