The Hohner Multimonica II was designed by the German engineer Harald Bode in the mid-1950s. A predecessor to the Clavioline tube synthesizer, the Multimonica II combined vacuum tube synthesis with a fan-driven reed organ.

The Multimonicas, like the Solovoxes, were among the earliest analog synthesizers designed and built during the 1940s and 1950s.
The reed section of the Multimonica works like a fan organ, but it is more advanced, with the possibility to adjust the amount of air passing through the reeds. Its multiple registers offer more diverse sounds than a conventional fan organ, including the ability to simulate a traditional accordion.

We sampled both the synthesizer and organ sections of the Multimonica II, capturing every setting and register for each note on the original instrument. After fine-tuning and seamlessly looping the samples, we rebuilt the Multimonica II within virtual samplers for use in your music.
For the synth section, you get the true sound of the analog instrument with huge improvements in control and stability, way beyond what’s possible with the real thing.

For the accordion section, we modelled the change in sound that occurs when adding more air to the reeds while the volume remains constant: the Kontakt scripted version of our library gives you complete control over such tonal changes.

Multimonica II contains:
205 stereo and 350 24-bit mono WAV files
8 multisampled synthesizer settings
5 multisampled accordion-style registers
2 programs for NI Kontakt 3-5 with scripted performance controls and GUI
14 programs for Kontakt 2+
20 programs for EXS24
13 programs in SoundFont format

The total size of the library compressed is 345 MB.
All formats are included when you buy Multimonica II
