Yamaha SK10 vintage string ensemble samples

Postby rutgerv » 25 Nov 2014, 13:30

Hi all,

I just restored a vintage Yamaha SK10 and sampled it. I sampled the organ, strings and brass section separately, as well as some nice sounding combinations of these with and without ensemble effect.

Enjoy!

Best,

Rutger

Yep, that's the one. I missed it in the Clavia archive of String Ensembles. The samples get really close to the real thing, when I play them shortly after another. But..... the original, as with almost all string synths and organs, has all notes across the keyboard phase-locked, as well as the ensemble effect on all keys phase-locked (all notes pass through the same ensemble circuit). That makes the samples sound slightly more diffuse and less "grainy" compared to the real one. I wish Clavia included string-synths in their modeling engine (like their organs), using a phase-locked set of continuously looping samples that are made audible when a key is pressed. That would be a simple, yet effective way to completely reproduce string ensembles and other organs based on octave dividers. Perhaps this could be implemented as a simple "on/off" option in the sampling engine, set from the software editor.

Best,

R.

I had a 15 back in the day. Loved that thing. Always regretted dumping it when I got my DX7. Thanks for the cool patches!

Hello, I purchased an SK10 off of a friend a couple of years ago, and recently, some of the keys have stopped working when pressed with others in various formations. I will admit it was stored in a location subjected to temperature changes, unfortunately. I wish to repair it if something is indeed broken or damaged, but do not know where to begin! If you have any advice, it would be much appreciated! I've never attempted to do this before.
