Origins Vol. 5: Ukulele and Muted Piano

With a focus on user-friendliness, Ukulele and Muted Piano gives you everything you need to start with an impressive sound palette, dig deeper, and tweak the instrument to your heart's content.

All of this is instantly accessible via handcrafted, fully-customizable presets, in both the musical and tonal color category.

The Instruments

With its light, familiar tone, the ukulele is at home in the upper ranges. Let it happily pluck away to your score, give it a percussive twist, create ambient pads or run impressive modern-sounding arpeggios with it: The possibilities are endless and usually just one preset away.

The muted piano provides an interesting scope for tonal design. Playing simple chords can lay an atmospheric groundwork for your composition, while the Multi-Arpeggio-Designer can give the instrument a characteristic, modern, sometimes futuristic feel. Paired with the Ukulele, you can achieve a new and fresh sound right on the pulse of time.

Multi-Arpeggio Designer

The Multi-Arpeggio-Designer is the centrepiece of every Origins instrument. Two fully customizable arpeggiators create interlocking patterns and broad soundscapes by combining the unique timbres of the two instruments. The engine is designed to convey a musically meaningful, human performance, instead of a computer randomly aligning notes.

Load up one of 100+ inspiring presets or create your own arpeggios in as much detail as you like. The MAD provides a variety of different features and controls to realize your musical vision.
