Suitcase in a Box Expansion Pack (for Attracktive) is a preset expansion from Tracktion that adds electromechanical electric piano sounds to the Attracktive effects plugin, ranging from clean and sweet to dirty and aggressive.
Suitcase in a Box is a preset pack by Tracktion for Attracktive, built around the sound of a late-sixties electromechanical piano. The developer describes the MK 1 as one of the most iconic instruments of its type, and this pack reworks its voice through a lo-fi treatment that runs the signal through eight compact guitar combo amps. The result is a piano with two sides: a clean, sweet tone and a dirty, aggressive one. The pack is designed to bring out the instrument's rock character.
The core idea of this pack is contrast. Tracktion says the MK 1 has a double character, playing clean and sweet or dirty and aggressive, and the presets are built to cover both ends of that range.
The clean sounds suit softer passages where you want the warmth of a vintage electromechanical piano without heavy coloration. The dirty sounds push the instrument toward its rocker side, with more grit and bite for parts that need to cut through a mix.
The sound is shaped by amplifying the piano voice through eight compact guitar combos. This amp-based approach is what gives the presets their lo-fi quality and their rougher edges on the dirtier settings.
Because the character comes from this amplification stage, the pack works best when you want a gritty, mid-focused electric piano rather than a pristine vintage reproduction.
