EXs156 DMP-EP

This electro-mechanical tine based piano was manufactured in 1979 and modified by the San Francisco-based Dyno-My-Piano company. The modifications included an active EQ, voicing of the tine/pickups to create a bell or “dyno” sound as well as changes to the case to allow additional keyboards to be more easily stack on top of the piano. The Kronos contains a special emulation of the chorus (EP Chorus) which often associated with the “dyno” piano sound and it is included with most of the provided programs.

The Purgatory Creek Soundware DMP-EP was deeply sampled at 18 velocity levels recorded for full duration, so you will hear neither loops nor artificial envelope decays. Nearly every note of the piano was sampled and eight velocity layers of note-off release samples are included. Because one oscillator in each of the HD-1 programs is used for release samples, only eight of the eighteen potential sustained layers are possible. Still, the availability of these many layers with their subtle timbre variations allows for sophisticated, detailed programming. In addition, nearly every note was sampled.

Note: The factory Programs of the KRONOS2 are arranged differently from those of the original KRONOS and KRONOS X. This affects sounds which reference the factory Programs. Please download the file which matches your KRONOS model.
