Bentside Spinet is a Kontakt-based library that revives the distinct sound of the 17th Century Italian Baroque keyboard. The Bentside Spinet is celebrated for its compact size, making it a staple in many households during its time. The library offers an authentic replication, capturing each key with multiple microphone positions and including a variety of sonic artifacts such as key releases and sound effects. This instrument library not only echoes the historical significance of the spinet but also integrates modern sound design elements:
