Manufacturer's Description for Native Instruments Xpress Keyboards Soft Synth (Macintosh and Windows)

With Xpress Keyboards Native Instruments has realized three software music instruments that combine an outstanding sound with incredible ease-of-use. The bundle includes the Xpress versions of the B4, PRO-53, and FM7, making it the perfect option for instrumentalists who see themselves first and foremost as musicians and who want to get straight to making music.

The Xpress Keyboards generate the sounds of three legendary classics, which to this day have not lost an ounce of their popularity. Each instrument represents a milestone in music history: B4 Xpress produces the sound of the legendary B3 drawbar organ including rotary speaker. PRO-53 Xpress generates the sound of the beloved Prophet-5TM analog synth. FM7 Xpress delivers the modern and digital sound of the famous FM synths of the 1980s.

The three Xpress Keyboards are designed for maximum playability and deliver the most popular sounds of their predecessors. Altogether 160 outstanding sounding presets cover an enormous spectrum of sounds, from fat basses to lead and pad sounds, from organ sounds to keyboard tones. In addition the presets can be changed through selected sound parameters - depending on the preset - letting you customize the sound, easy and intuitive.

One of the most important factors when making music is finding a completely convincing and inspiring sound. In this department Xpress Keyboards set new standards: these brilliant instruments inherit their sound engines from the full versions of B4 Organ, FM7, and PRO-53, instruments known for their perfect sound quality. Professional sound is guaranteed.

Since all three instruments can run standalone and as a plug-in, Xpress Keyboards are equally suited for playing live at home, on stage, and for composing songs in a sequencer.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "A gift horse from NI"

Sound: Top quality sound, especially considering the very small CPU usage Feature: I like the minimalist concept; however, including a few more of the primary adjustmests would have been best. For example, the LFO speed and depth Quality: It looks good, it sounds good, its efficient, and it includes the most well rounded set of presets of any VSTI that Ive experienced. The presets cover a broad spectrum; basically everything that the full synth can do well. Each preset can be tweaked and resaved as a new patch. Value: These are the best bargains in the softsynth market. Manufacturer Support: Ive had two dealings with NI customer support. Both were very quick and exceeded my expectations. The Wow Factor: The GUI is very professional looking. More importantly, the whole instrument is geared toward efficiency, including the preset selection tool. Overall: There will always be a place for these in the mix, even if its just as bass, pads and backing.

Style of Music: Techno

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "NI XPRESS SYNTHS- Finally, superior quality that doesn't cost a week's pay!"

Sound: The sound is just as good as the full versions of the synths. Very impressive for the price. Feature: There are few parameters to change. You can adjust volume & tone and there is an EFFECT knob. The effect is different for each patch and cannot be changed. Quality: These synths do not have any CPU load on my PC (P4,2GHz,1.5G ram). They load quick and the preset menus get along with my sequencer (FL Studio) There really is a difference between the free and cheap synths on the net and the NI Xpress line. Value: I have not seen anything close in value: 3 synths- VST and standalone- and they all sound great! Manufacturer Support: I have not needed support so I cannot give an accurate rating. The Wow Factor: The GUI is very important to me- if it doesn't look good then it doesn't feel good either. The look definitely reflects the sound. Overall: I have already bought the full versions of FM7 and Pro 53. After trying the Xpress line I knew they would be worth the price. I still use the Xpress synths just as much as the full versions.

Style of Music: Rock, funk, techno,metal and so on ...
