FM TiNES is an electric piano library dedicated to the most beautiful FM electric pianos ever made. We know as musicians ourselves, that there is nothing more inspiring than the belly, crystal-like, tine sound of an FM electric piano. We ran through the entire 80’s gamut of the most beautifully expressive, rich, warm, and inspiring electric pianos ever made. The magic of our software is the expressiveness. We went to great lengths to make sure that all of our pianos are full of life, expression, warmth, and beauty, but providing an analog filter than can be controlled by velocity, and a color mod that will change the color and tone of the mod per velocity. When you combine both of these together, you create a very expressive electric piano sound that seems to change the tone on each and every keyboard touch. From beautiful tine stacks and layers, to wonderfully rich string and pad stacks, this will be your go-to library for all of your pretty electric piano needs.

It’s possible I’m just incompetent, but the only manual I could find online are for the desktop version. I also could not log into the GM account I made for activation. The app also needs an additional 3gb of files for your samples. Comes with good samples, though. ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2025-04-24, version 2.2.10* Excellent as usual from Jamal and his team at Gospel Musicians , every 80’s FM tine you could ever want from Vanessa Williams through to Whitney and everything in between , keep producing guys as your sounds are Top Notch ### 5/5 — Good *2024-12-14, version 2.2.6* This is bueno bueno.
