The Stage EP Black Friday deal puts AIR Music Technology's electric piano instrument at 77% off, $34, with the offer ending Nov 26, 2026. It is a Stage EP plugin built around five electric piano models, sampled in Germany by the AIR engineering team.

The maker says the team sampled each instrument in multiple layers to capture its acoustic character. The set covers the Classic E-Piano, Classic E-Piano Hot, Suitcase, Wurli and Pianet.

What are the five electric pianos in Stage EP?

  • Classic E-Piano: a struck tuning fork design with a metal tone bar that adds resonance, sustain and a distinct growl.
  • Classic E-Piano Hot: the same base tones run through extra gain to push up the sweet harmonic overtones.
  • Suitcase: an 80W amp plus the exaggerated bell tone of the enhanced pickups of the 70s, which the maker pitches at classic jazz and funk.
  • Wurli: a struck strings and reed design with a sweet, vibraphone-like tone.
  • Pianet: a soft, understated leather-on-metal design for articulate, quiet passages.

Beyond the five models, the instrument also includes acoustic mechanics and an FM tine synth. The maker says they add modern and classic colours on top of the original tones.

How do you shape the sound?

Each model can be edited from the interface. Simple controls change the formant, the dynamics and the age of the instrument, and each model has its own pedal parameters for response and mechanics.

The maker says the physical-mechanical sounds are adjustable too, so you can dial in how much of the instrument's body comes through.

There are more than 100 presets included. They give you a starting point before you reach for the controls.

What effects are built in?

The effects engine lives inside the instrument, so a Stage EP sound can sit finished on a single track without a chain of extra plugins. The list covers:

  • Flavor timbre control
  • Amp and cabinet simulations
  • Chorus and tremolo
  • EQ and compression
  • Reverb, delay and modulation

The maker describes the range as running from bright shimmers to dark echoes and spacey, washed-out electric pianos.
