Collector Keyboards

KEYSCAPE® is an extraordinary virtual instrument featuring the
largest selection of collector keyboards in the world. From
“holy grail” pianos to stunning keyboards you didn't even know
existed, this is a keyboardist's dream come true.

Ten years in the making, each of these sought-after keyboards
was carefully restored and then deeply multisampled by the
renowned Spectrasonics Sound Development Team. These compelling
and highly expressive sounds will inspire you to PLAY!
The process began with going to the ends of the earth to find
and restore each one of these rare and incredibly special
instruments with the top technicians and expert craftsmen from
each discipline. We even went as far as spending years redoing
these instruments from scratch again and again until they were
totally “right.” This incredible attention to detail and
meticulous care given to each instrument allowed us to develop
these sounds to a whole new level of authentic tone.

While it's every performing keyboardist's dream to have the very
best instruments instantly available anywhere, Keyscape is
equally useful in the studio for producers and composers. Since
these instruments can be easily transformed into amazing
“unreal” sounds with the powerful STEAM Engine® under the hood,
Keyscape easily turns these coveted instruments from History
into innovative new sounds of the Future.

[IMG: custom-controls-desktop]

[IMG: custom-controls-mobile]

[H2]
Custom Controls
The Custom Controls presented for each Patch allow you to go far beyond the original sound.
The intuitive interface includes useful performance controls and high-quality creative
effects processing specially crafted for each Patch. Hundreds of included Patches showcase
the remarkable versatility and ability to dramatically customize these iconic sounds to your
music.

User Interface

[IMG: keyscape expression]

[H2]
Authentic Expression
With many of these collector instruments, it's really the imperfections that make them so
interesting. Instead of cleaning up all the quirks and noises they make, we made sure to
closely capture them since they are a big part of their vibe. In addition to that, our
software team closely modeled the authentic behavior and mojo of vintage amplifiers, classic
effects units, and unique subtleties like mechanical noises, pedal noises, and release
overtones to bring these sounds to a whole new level of authenticity and dynamic expression.

[IMG: duo library]

[H2]
Hybrid Duo Sounds
Along with the hundreds of patches based on the 36 instrument models, Keyscape includes
special hybrid "Duo" sounds which combine two of the instruments to create something
entirely new. The unique timbre of these Duo patches make them some of the most creative and
inspiring sounds in Keyscape!

[IMG: omnisphere integration]

[H2]
Omnisphere Integration
As a bonus for Omnisphere® users, Keyscape also integrates fully as a satellite instrument
within the Omnisphere® interface. Keyscape will simply appear as a library inside
Omnisphere's browser for users of both plugins. This capability allows Omnisphere® users to
harness additional functionality like Live Mode, Stack Mode, Multitimbrality, endless FX
routings and the full synthesis power of the STEAM Engine® to explore endless new sonic
possibilities and combinations.

[H2]
Keyscape Creative Library
Keyscape now also includes a next-level library of over 1500 patches specially designed for
users who also have Omnisphere. The richly detailed keyboard sounds of Keyscape have been
dramatically transformed using Omnisphere's deep synthesis capabilities. These truly amazing
patches offer an extremely wide variety of incredible sounds for modern music producers.

[H2]
Standalone with Recording
Flow Capture™ is a special recording function built into the Keyscape standalone app - which
grabs spontaneous musical moments in audio, MIDI and .keyscape sound format simultaneously.

Keyscape FAQ

Where can I purchase Keyscape?

Download sales are available in our Webstore and Physical sales
(boxed with USB drives) are handled exclusively through our Authorized Resellers.
We highly recommend the physical boxed version, since you can get the best deals and
have the fastest install experience with the USB drives.

Is there a DEMO version of Keyscape I can try?

Because of the size of our instruments, we don't offer Demo versions. However, you can
contact one of our local dealers in your area to arrange a live demo of Keyscape. To find a
local dealer in your area, please contact your local Authorized Resellers.

Does Omnisphere include Keyscape?

No. Keyscape is sold separately as a unique virtual instrument. Fortunately once it's been
purchased, Omnisphere users can also enjoy that Keyscape integrates beautifully within
Omnisphere as a "Satellite Instrument". The amazing Keyscape
Creative Library can
then
also be accessed within Omnisphere for customers that own both instruments. A great reason
to use both!

If I buy the Boxed version of Keyscape, will I also be able to get a download in the future? If I
buy the Download Edition, will I also be able to get the drives?

Yes to both! There are alternative forms of installation available to registered users - no
matter which edition you originally purchased. Spectrasonics is keenly aware that there are
numerous scenarios when the convenience of downloading or the speed of USB drives would be a
preferred form of installation for different types of users. If you need a download
installation, you can access that in the REINSTALL tab of your User Account. In our webstore
we also have a Support Services area that offers Alternative Installation USB Drives if you
need them - available for purchase in our Webstore for registered users.

Is the “Lite” install sold separately?

No. There is a single version of Keyscape that offers two installation options: “Full” (80GB)
which installs the complete collection of instruments, or “Lite” (30GB), which installs a
smaller selection of essential instruments for live performance.

Is there a student discount price for Keyscape?

Spectrasonics doesn't offer student discounts, however qualifying schools and institutions
can participate in our EDU
program.

Does Spectrasonics allow for used sales/license transfers of Keyscape?

Please see the License
Transfer FAQs area of the Knowledgebase for more info on our License Transfer
Policy.

How many sounds does Keyscape come with?

Keyscape comes with over 500 sounds!

Will it work with my controller keyboard?

Yes! The highly dynamic and expressive instruments in Keyscape have been recorded with
incredible depth, so it is important to set Keyscape to respond properly to your keyboard
controller. We've included a variety of velocity curves optimized specifically for the most
popular keyboard and controllers - a list which is growing all the time.

I notice the controls in the interface change when I change Patches. Why is that?

Different sounds benefit from different controls (Pickup selection for Clavinets®, Character
controls for pianos, Tremolo for electric pianos, etc.) so they are specially crafted for
each Patch. The Custom Controls give you the ability to extensively tailor these sounds to
your music.

Can I alter the sound beyond what the controls for each patch can do?

Yes. If you want to modify a sound beyond what the Custom Controls allow, you can do it by
loading it within Omnisphere 2.

I really like the Duo Patches where you've combined two instruments. Is there a way I can I
create my own Duos?

You can create your own layered “Duos” when you load Keyscape sounds inside Omnisphere 2.
While you’re there you can further modify the sounds using the full power of the STEAM
engine and even combine Keyscape and Omnisphere sounds.

I want to assign my Mod Wheel to control a parameter in the interface. How can I do that?

You can right-click on the control and MIDI Learn it to your Mod Wheel.

I'd like to use a foot controller to control the Wah in the Patches that have it. Is that
possible?

Yes! All Patches that use Wah/Envelope Filters are programmed to be controlled from the Mod
Wheel and Foot Controller.

Which sounds are included in the “Lite” Installation?

The "Lite" installation includes a small collection of models that uses only 30 GB of drive
space - perfect for live rigs. You will find sounds created using the following:
Hohner Clavinet C
JD-800 Crystal Rhodes
LA Custom C7
MK-80 Digital Rhodes
MKS-20 Digital Piano
Rhodes - Classic Mark I
Rhodes - LA Custom “E”
Wurlitzer 140B

Is Keyscape a stand-alone app or a plugin?

Keyscape includes a standalone application and VST/AU/AAX plug-in platforms that work in all
the major DAWs and hosts.

Does Keyscape use lossless audio compression technology?

Yes. The size the full Keyscape library uses in your drive (80 GB) is actually compressed
using lossless audio compression. Uncompressed, the library is over 200 GB! So when we say
the library is “huge,” we really mean it!

Do I need to have Omnisphere to use it?

No, Keyscape is its own instrument, and a very powerful one! Having said that, loading
Keyscape sounds in Omnisphere will allow you to further modify
them using Omnisphere's
synthesis features, as well as creating layers and splits, combining them with Omnisphere
sounds. The possibilities are truly endless!

What is the STEAM engine?

STEAM™
is our in-house core technology that is the foundation of Omnisphere, Trilian and a new
generation of Spectrasonics instruments.

What are the minimum system requirements for Keyscape?

You can view them HERE.

Is it compatible with xxx?

Check our Compatibility
FAQs in the Knowledgebase which we keep up to date with the latest info.

Does Keyscape use Copy Protection?

Yes, please see the Copy
Protection FAQs area of the Knowledgebase for more information on our system.

Does Keyscape include a manual?

All our instruments include a comprehensive online Reference
Guide, which is accessible
directly through the plugin. The integrated Reference Guide is searchable and we can keep it
up to date with the software releases.

How fast does my computer have to be to run Keyscape?

As with all virtual instruments - the faster the better. Keyscape is designed to run
optimally on modern computers. See the System
Requirements for more information.

Is Keyscape 64 bit?

Yes! All our instruments are 64-bit native on both Mac and Windows.

Does Keyscape use streaming?

Yes! Keyscape streams from the drive for quick loading of the sounds. Drive streaming is
configurable as well.

I want to use Keyscape on my live rig, which doesn't have a lot of drive space. What do you
recommend?

You can do a “Lite” installation of Keyscape, which includes a smaller selection of
instruments that are essential for live performance.

Can I just install the instruments I need, since the Keyscape library is so large?

Because of Patch compatibility, Keyscape must always be installed with the “Full” (80 GB) or
“Lite” (30 GB) version of the library. Each Patch is quite complex and references multiple
parts of the library. Keyscape is not simply a sample library where the focus is to showcase
one instrument at a time. Duo Patches, which combine two instruments, are a special part of
what makes Keyscape unique!

My system meets the minimum requirements. Will Keyscape run well in my computer?

Yes, although as is the case with all virtual instruments, how well it runs depends on a lot
of factors that go beyond the system you have (host, which other plugins are running, etc.).
For cases where performance is an issue, Keyscape Patches have a “Thinning” button that
loads a version of the sound that uses less resources.

Will Keyscape streaming benefit from a faster hard drive?

Fast drives are a smart way to go of course. There's a chapter in the Reference
Guide
devoted to optimizing Performance with Keyscape.

Can I install Keyscape on a different drive?

Yes, you can install the library to a secondary or external drive. For best results, we
recommend installing Keyscape on a freshly formatted Solid State Drive (avoid using FAT32
format).

What version of Omnisphere do I need to be able to load Keyscape sounds?

In order to load Keyscape sounds into Omnisphere, you'll need Omnisphere version 2.3 or
higher.
