This Imperial is a blast from the past, with a wide carriage designed for larger paper sizes, little glass panels in the side to let you see its workings, and a shiny chrome bell on the back.

They've sampled it lovingly at 24-bit, including a mass of keystrikes, carriage returns, paper winds, clicks, buzzes, spool ratchets and other noises – 69 samples in all. The white keys of one octave are given over to keystrikes, which are varied randomly from a pool of 21 samples, while C4 is your space-bar and the black keys are things like shift, carriage return, the end-of-line bell and so on; so you can 'type' with one hand and use the other to punctuate your 'typing' with the appropriate other mechanical noises.

To celebrate their 5th anniversary, all boxed Sample Logic titles are half price until 11th March, including the recently released Fanfare and the incredibly popular Cinematic Guitars.

Sample Logic are renowned for developing high quality, award winning virtual instruments for film, tv and video game composers yet each title can be used just as effectively outside the cinematic arena, with endless inspiring possibilities for dance, pop, ambient and even world music producers.

On this day, the UK's musical instrument shops will open their doors and offer free instrument "taster" lessons to the general public.

There are 15 million people in the UK that either want to play an instrument or used to play one. The Day is designed to welcome people into music shops and to inspire them to get playing.
