The E.M.S. Synthi AKS is a legendary instrument with an
illustrious history. First manufactured in 1972 by E.M.S in Putney,
South-West London, The Synthi A was basically a portable version of
EMS's famous VCS3 synthesiser, and the KS Keyboard (a playable 30-note
touchplate) was added to make the Synthi AKS. It cost £420.It was
quickly adopted by the likes of Brian Eno and Pink Floyd, and has been
used by experimental musicians ever since.
The Synthi has a unique
patching system that uses a small patchbay grid. Each of the Synthi's
components appear as a source and destination on the patchbay, and by
placing a pin into that x-y position, you can route the signal from one
component to the other. This was a very effective way to make a
powerful modular system very compact.

The Raw Sound of Ancient Analogue Synthesis
We love soft synths, and have been using them for years. However, they
just can't replicate the sheer exhilarating thrill of a bunch of 30
year old oscillators snarling through the most famous Ring-Modulator
ever built! For this reason, we decided that the best of both worlds
would be to build a sampled instrument that would give us the
unmistakeable Synthi sound, complete with adjustable convolution spring
reverb, at our fingertips all the time - tuned, looped and stable. It
can also be played polyphonically if you wish, which is certainly not
something you could do with it in 1972! Organic, Unstable and Massive Synthi AKS is a surprisingly
versatile library, giving you horror klangs and snappy zaps, snarling
ring-mod leads and basses, and fat, rubbery mellow textures ready to
slot into your productions. You'll be astounded at the sheer size and
sense of life in the sounds. With complete control over filters,
envelopes as well as the Spring Reverb convolution impulse, you'll be
able to tame the beast. Well, almost. The Synthi Library
1GB 24-bit Samples
25 Multi-sampled Wave Instruments - 761 MB
Extensively sampled at 24 bit at various pitches across the range to
best capture the natural response of the Synthi. Ring Mod patches are
sampled on every note to ensure proper tracking. Each instrument has
full envelope and filter control, and well as a Spring Reverb
Convolution Send. 94 Beat Machine Instruments (Kontakt Version) Apple Loops/ Rex/ Wav (EXS24 Version) - 133 MB
To capture the raw, unstable sound of the Synthi we sequenced it using
a CV-MIDI convertor. This really shows the unique analogue behaviour of
this incredible unit as the loops push and tear at your speakers. The
loops are divided into a mid-tempo set (Acid loops), and a down tempo
set. There is also a set of oddities that didn't fit into either
category. 27 Hits and Effects Instruments - 143MB This is the part
of the library where the 'Vintage Sci-Fi' sound is most evident. The
Synthi has been used extensively over the years to create spot effects
for films and TV, and you will instantly recognise the unique character
of the sound! Each Instrument features a set of samples fully mapped
with full synthesis control and reverb send Spring Reverb Convolution
The sound of the Synthi AKS would not be the same without the grungey Spring Reverb. This is provided as a Space Designer Preset for Logic users, and is built into the Kontakt2 instruments as a send effect.
