Toontrack releases first EKX expansion for EZkeys 2

Coinciding with the release of EZkeys 2 in May of this year, all available sound libraries for EZkeys were converted to EKXs. While all previously released titles work in both the legacy version as well as the current iteration of the program, the Soul Roads EKX is the first EKX developed uniquely for the new format.

About the Soul Roads EKX
Even though trends, fads and whims have all come and gone along the winding road through soul music history, there is one instrument you can hear at whatever mile marker you stop. Mustering the entire scope from growl, grit and bite down to lush, velvety and smooth, this chameleon is as relevant today as it was when it first launched decades ago. We’re of course talking about the unmistakable, iconic and timeless Rhodes* electric piano.

In order to capture the essence of this instrument’s iconic legacy, this EKX for EZkeys 2 includes two pianos from different eras – both handpicked from a meticulously restored and curated collection. Combined, you’ll have two fundamentally different instruments that cover the entire width of tones – from the nostalgic old-world charm and the funk-infused ’70s through to the lush neo-soul and beat-driven eras of the modern day.

In addition to the sounds, a broad palette of mix-ready presets as well as a collection of MIDI covering song foundations inspired by soul from the ’60s through to today are included.

If you’re serious about your soul songs and looking to expand your EZkeys 2 with an EKX that exudes character and authenticity, this is the one. Need a collection of sounds, presets and MIDI that seamlessly fuse present with nostalgia, perfect for use even well beyond the scope of soul? This is it.
