EastWest Iconic 138GB of rare and vintage (Download)

Experience the sonic legacy of music’s greatest synthesizers with this comprehensive keyboard sound collection. Featuring 524 meticulously sampled instruments across 138 GB of audio content, this plugin delivers an unparalleled palette of sounds spanning pop, hip hop, EDM, and beyond. Each sound has been expertly programmed by Anthony Marinelli—the visionary synth programmer behind Michael Jackson’s Thriller—alongside renowned producers Ryan Thomas and Marco Iodice, ensuring authentic recreations of the most transformative keyboard moments in music history.

The collection captures rare and legendary synthesizers including the ARP 2600, Minimoog Model D, Oberheim OB-X, Sequential Prophet 5, Yamaha CS-80, and Synclavier II. What sets this plugin apart is its sophisticated analog processing: each instrument has been pushed through tube Studer J37 tape machines to infuse rich harmonic distortion and warmth characteristic of classic recordings. Advanced reamping techniques using multiple microphone positions recorded in EastWest Studio 2 add dimensional stereo space, employing the same professional methods used by Thriller’s mixing engineer Bruce Swedien.

Transform these legendary sounds into contemporary productions with cutting-edge built-in effects and intuitive controls. The MacroFX Pad enables simultaneous manipulation of multiple parameters for creative flexibility, while dedicated filter, drive, and modulation controls allow you to sculpt vintage tones into modern masterpieces. Whether you’re seeking authentic retro character or contemporary sonic innovation, this synth plugin bridges classic keyboard heritage with modern production demands.
