Sixteen scenes, sixteen moods: the first reel is free.

CINEMATIK TASTE is a free first reel: 16 scenes taken from CINEMATIK PACK 1 and PACK 2, which hold 128 between them. PACK 1 is made for the big screen, with epic and dark pads, ethereal beds, drones, motion, textures, other worlds and trailer impacts; PACK 2 for the gentle side of picture, with soft pads, piano scapes, strings and air, bells, harps, slow motion, nature and wide horizons. TASTE takes one scene from each of their sixteen categories.

The idea is the same in all of them. Each scene layers the K2700's own keymaps with synth oscillators, three sources in every program, and none of it stands still: slow LFOs cross-fade the layers and sweep their tone, the motion scenes pulse at the K2700's tempo, and every program has its own effect chain and a long hall. They were balanced and levelled on a K2700, so they sit at the same loudness.

And they are CINEMATIK's own scenes. Open any of them in CINEMATIK, the cinematic synth for the Mac that made them, and edit it in real time: with the K2700 on USB, every move reaches the instrument as you make it, and STORE keeps your version there.

On the panel

Play the scene, not a menu.

Every program carries the same control plan as PACK 1, so the K2700's sliders and knobs always do the same job: shape the scene while it plays.

Button 9 turns the hall on and off. The mod wheel and pressure bring more of most scenes: a vibrato, more movement, another layer, a swell.
