Accordions

“Eduardo Tarilonte has done it again! Very few sampled instruments have been researched and programmed to make the performer feel so in touch (except perhaps the Celtic and spiritual wind collections Eduardo has produced before...) These accordions are a must for anyone wanting to play the instrument in an authentic way. The tone is fabulous - Eduardo chose a wonderful instrument to sample and he has created the perfect virtual accordion.”

"Eduardo Tarilonte has consistently been providing me the most expressive and realistic solo instruments I have ever had the pleasure to compose with.
In Accordions, once again, the tone in each patch is simply perfect and with an unmatchable playability. It simply sounds and feels perfect out of the box."

"Eduardo’s Accordions library takes accordion sampling to the next level! I was concerned that the patches wouldn’t be expressive enough for the film music I’m working on currently, as I’m using a lot of live instruments... But these patches are totally expressive and organic! I’m able to create a very realistic mock-up... and whether dry or through multiple effects, it is totally working in the mix..."
