Native Instruments Scarbee Vintage Keys

via Native Instruments

"Introducing four all-time classic electric keyboards with an authentic sound you have not heard before. These soulful, funky and dynamic instruments have been sampled to perfection and recreate the genuine character of the originals down to the finest nuances. All models are available individually or get all four together in the SCARBEE VINTAGE KEYS bundle, saving you 40%*.

The SCARBEE MARK I delivers an unrivalled reproduction of one of most sought-after electric pianos of all time. Perfect for jazz, funk, fusion and R&B, and versatile enough for any production where authentic electric piano is essential.

The classic character of the SCARBEE A-200 goes from a warm and mellow vibraphone-like chime to a bright and 'barking' overdriven sound when played harder. Much loved by pop and rock bands in the 1960s and 70's and has recently found favor with a whole new wave of artists.

This instrument contains the sounds of the legendary Hohner Clavinet** with its sharp, percussive bite and the twangy Hohner Model N Pianet** - both expertly sampled by Scarbee and brimming with the unique character and funky feel of the originals."

"Original HARPER'S WEEKLY illustrated journal, dated March 10, 1906. COMPLETE in 32 pgs, lacking covers; 4to (13 1/4" x 9 1/4"). IN FINE CONDITION!

Featured in this issue is the DOUBLE PAGE+ article "ORCHESTRAL MUSIC FROM A DYNAMO" (Telharmonium, the FIRST electronic musical instrument) containing THREE (3) original photo image views: "THE KEY-BOARD OF THE TELHARMONIUM, WHICH CONTROLS THE FORMATION OF THE MUSICAL TONES" (5" X 7"), "THE GROUP OF ALTERNATORS WHICH PRODUCE THE MUSICAL TONES IN DR. (Thaddeus) CAHILL'S INVENTION" (4" X 7"), & "THE 'TONE-MIXER' BY WHICH IS CLAMED THAT A WIDE VARIETY OF INSTRUMENTAL TONE QUALITIES CAN BE PRODUCED" (5" X 4 1/4").

A sample of the article reads, "What are the qualifications of an ideal musical instrument?...Yet an instrument has been invented by Dr. Thaddeus Cahill, of Holyoke, Massachusetts, which seems to possess the qualifications called for to a notable degree, and in thses days of electrical invention it is not surprising to learn that the agent which accomplishes this remarkable result is electricity...".

Doing Vocal treatments using the Midiverb 2 and the MOTM-410 filter


YouTube via RothHandle
"Today was another one of those bits and pieces days...even though I got a lot of stuff done it feels a bit like session pop corn...This is like a continuance from yesterdays session sorting out ideas and recording them..

This films shows me doing treatments on Staphans lead vocal recorded yesterday.

This film was recorded at Roth Händle studos in Stockholm, Sweden. This is where I spend my days recording and producing artists...The studio started in my apartment and evolved slowly from there. This is the forth location of the studio. The first one obviously was at home...the second and third was at a abandoned shipyard outside of Stockholm. If you are curious to find out more about the studio please visit www.roth-handle.nu for more info, blogs and odd facts.

Thanks for watching,

Mattias"
