What it is
The Canterbury Suitcase is a KONTAKT instrument built from meticulous multi-layer samples of a real, perfectly maintained 88-key Fender Rhodes Suitcase electric piano. Soniccouture recorded the instrument with three separate signal paths - line-out, a close-mic'd speaker cabinet, and natural room ambience - giving it a range of tonal characters from clean and direct to warm and roomy. The library weighs in at 16 GB with 25 velocity layers per note for full dynamic expression.
Who it's for
Producers, composers, and keyboardists who want a deeply expressive, studio-grade electric piano with the authentic character of a real Rhodes - ideal for soul, R&B, jazz, neo-soul, lo-fi, and cinematic work.
