STEEL STRUMMER FOR KONTAKT!
PTF - STEEL STRUMMER
If a MIDI library deals with the topic "strumming an acoustic guitar", the result can often be very artificial and hideous, even with many popular and well-known libraries. It was our challenge that we develop a strumming guitar library that should sound realistic and is very diverse in its area of application for all music genres.
That's why we took our beloved "Martin D-18" in hand to get the typical standard acoustic guitar sound. We decided to record on a stereo setup with two "Schoeps CMC 5" microphones in XY microphone position.
Then we played chord by chord, countless chords.... We cleverly scripted the samples into a small masterpiece in which we can now realistically represent an acoustic guitar in strumming mode.
Here are the main features:
- STEEL STRUMMER.nkm for Kontakt 5.4.3 (48khz/24bit)
- authentic tempo-independent rhythmic play of acoustic guitar strums
- controllable velocity hit for a mix-ready sound! 3 articulations of strummings that are easily handle in a livemode situation; Playing soft: powerchords / playing medium: open strum chords / playing hard: sus-chords
- 30 RR per tonepitch
- easy to use interface / one octave major, one octave minor
- dead easy control of humanized guitar noise in sustain mode and normal playing mode. Modwheel for SUSTAIN/black "c" for STOPing chord sustain with humanized guitar noise and stop noise. That's all!
This enables a live performance to be presented very convincingly.
Above all, the number of RoundRobins and the ease of use of the controller makes this instrument a natural-sounding acoustic guitar strummer.
