Sonora Cinemstic have released Nocturne Electric Piano, available at the intro price of $40.00, increasing to $54.00 after the promotion.
Introducing Nocturne Electric Piano – the second addition to our no-frills, great-sounding, easy-to-use Select series which premiered with the release of Emma Legato earlier this year.
Nocturne Electric Piano offers a special, mellow, dreamy, and intimate sound that feels incredibly inspiring to play – whether you’re composing emotive, soulful compositions, cinematic scores, sparse arrangements, or poignant song intros.
Last year, Sonora Cinemstic stumbled across a beautiful mid-70s electric piano – an instrument that didn’t sound quite like a Rhodes or a Wurlitzer, but had its own mellow, intimate, and cinematic voice. It was love at first play.
Just a week later, the piano’s circuitry dramatically failed and the piano went up in flames! Thankfully Sonora Cinemstic’s studio was largely undamaged but they had lost their beloved ‘new’ instrument. The sound and spirit of that piano stayed with us…
Determined to bring it back to life, Sonora Cinemstic found a studio with a similar model and deep-sampled it in incredible detail. They captured the full character and vibe of that magical instrument, and Nocturne Electric Piano was born.
In true Select series spirit, Nocturne keeps things simple, but it does have a couple of tricks up its sleeve.
Sonora Cinemstic’s favourite is the Double Track switch – a one-click way to create a beautiful, organic stereo image by using different round robins on the left and right channels. It brings out the imperfect beauty of what is a very mechanical instrument where every note played has tiny variations.

Nocturne Electric Piano requires a free or full version of Kontakt 8.1 or later.
