Accordions 2

Like its predecessor Accordions 2 has been produced by Eduardo Tarilonte and features not only twice the content, but also a completely revised user interface as well as pre-built rhythms for the left hand.

Accordions 2 has 3 different dynamics and 3 round robins. All instruments were recorded chromatically with the pristine sound of a U47 microphone. Even subtle sounds from an accordion, like key and button noises, were carefully captured to increase the realism of your performance.
