🐸 Synthrilla Froggie SF-60 is out now — and it is everything we wanted it to be.
The Casio MT-60 is one of those instruments that defined an era without anyone really noticing. Released in the early 1980s as a budget home keyboard, its simple, slightly nasal tones ended up on more records than most people realize — including, famously, on early Michael Jackson productions engineered by Bruce Swedien. There is something about the MT-60 that just sits perfectly in a mix.
The problem: finding a real one in good condition is getting harder every year. And when you do find one, you are dealing with 40-year-old electronics that may or may not behave.
Every Note. Chromatically Sampled.
The SF-60 solves this the right way: we took a real Casio MT-60, sampled every single note chromatically from C0 through C4, and built a modern instrument around it. No synthesis. No emulation. The real thing, preserved and playable.
On top of the sample engine you get 32-voice polyphony, a polyphonic VCF filter with full envelope control, a 4-band EQ, multi-mode delay, a Dattorro plate reverb, LFO with multiple waveforms, and pitchbend. Every parameter is automatable and has MIDI Learn built in — map your hardware controller to anything in seconds.
The SF-60 also ships with a zoomable waveform looper (1x–50x zoom) and over 10 factory presets across 8 categories to get you started immediately.
