Jewel Bandolero

Jewel Bandolero captures the vintage analog sounds of the distinctive Gem Rodeo 49, an Italian synthesizer introduced in the early 1970s by the Galanti Group. Featuring a 49-key keyboard and drum/rhythm machine, this synth offers various knobs and faders for layer volume, instrument type, accompaniment, and tempo control. Our library includes synth sustains, staccatos, “Magic Chords” from the organ, and 41 tempo-syncable drum machine loops. We recorded the instrument articulations in wide stereo and direct line in, and crafted twenty evolving ambient pads from the source content to enhance versatility.

This library offers an exploration of a classic combo organ, with warm tonal colors ready to complement any genre. The GUI is packed with sound-shaping controls, allowing flexibility to warp the sound in many ways. Control Volume, Attack, Release, Transient Offset, Vibrato, and Octave layering. The "Glide" control slider enables legato and portamento leads. An adaptable LFO system includes selectable LFO shape, modulation target parameter, speed, intensity, tempo-syncing, and fade-in time. Apply your choice of 13 lowpass, highpass, and FX filters with assignable modulation options, including velocity, modwheel, expression, after-touch, key position, and step-sequencer table control. A customizable arpeggiator features a built-in velocity sequencer table and controls over arp direction, note timing, swing, randomization, and duration.

Recorded in a dry studio using Neumann TLM 103 microphones and direct line in, we captured many stock presets with sustains, staccato, magic chord, and drum loop samples. The octave, vibrato, and FX rack provide an easy-to-use interface for complete sound customization. The library includes flexible control features like Swell, pitch Glide, Attack, Release, Vibrato, and Octave. A complete DSP effects rack offers convolution reverb with dozens of unique spaces, such as cathedrals, churches, halls, and otherworldly FX impulses for endless sonic manipulations.
