Accurate SA-Synthesis Emulation with CPU and Custom Chip Modeling
RdPiano delivers authentic emulation of classic SA-synthesis digital pianos, focusing on iconic instruments like the Roland MKS-20, RD1000, and Rhodes MK-80.
The plugin achieves its distinctive sound through precise modeling of the original CPU-B board architecture, including both CPU and custom chip emulation based on detailed silicon analysis. While the digital components are faithfully reproduced, the BBD chorus and tremolo effects are approximated to capture the essence of these classic instruments.
Technical Implementation
The emulator's core is built as a dependency-free library, making it highly portable across different platforms. It incorporates authentic 6800 CPU emulation code and specialized digital signal processing for the chorus effect implementation.
Key Features
The plugin's sound engine meticulously recreates the characteristics of SA-synthesis technology. The development team has focused on accuracy in digital component emulation while providing an accessible interface for modern music production workflows.
