The GEM RP-X Sound Module is specifically
dedicated to the emulation of stunning acoustic pianos and vintage
instruments ideal for stage or studio use. In addition to the superb
grand piano patches, the selection of Rhodes, Wurlitzer, and Clavinet
are reproduced with stunning reality. The RP-X features an impressive
72 notes max polyphony, 64 MB of stereo/mono samples, + physical
modeling generation. The combination of sounds, effects and their
control parameters may be stored in the presets for immediate recall
during live performance.
The DRAKE (Dsp Risc Advanced Keyboard
Engine) technology acclaimed for its astonishing performances in the
Promega & Realpiano Series pianos is available in the RP-X module.
Offering musicians the possibility of always having available a wide
selection of the best electric and acoustic piano sounds including the
famous Fazioli F308. DRAKE sound quality and power stems from its
totally programmable DSP software architecture, allowing many types of
sound generation algorithms, effects and post processing including the
exclusive physical models pioneered by Generalmusic.
The sound
module's user interface is extremely easy to navigate with a minimum of
front panel buttons to access essential controls and functions. The
rear panel features stereo audio output, aux stereo input, MIDI in/thru
connections along with a USB port for a direct connection to the
computer (Windows). The "X Series" is accompanied by a custom PC-based
editor that allows easy control, simultaneous change and storage of the
vast number of internal parameters. The RAM and flash memories allow
the "X Series" modules to be fully updated via software just like all
the other GEM instruments powered by DRAKE.
