We first recorded this guitar as part of our “Sampleholics Guitars for Stylus RMX.” We got so many requests to release a Kontakt version of the acoustic, that we had to do it. But first, we added more features, more sounds - all with a nice small footprint.

We sampled my favorite acoustic guitar.

Not a Martin... Not a Taylor...

It’s a Takamine.

There's just something about it that makes it a really great recording guitar.


Included:

  • Sustains, as well as palm mutes.
  • A combined version of these as a third articulation that we call “Spanish.” - Sure, it’s not really a Spanish guitar, but you’ll find it’s really useful. Check out the demos and you’ll see what we mean.
  • Major and minor chord strums, both up and down. So you can get real sounding basic strumming in a hurry.
  • 12 String guitar mode! - Okay, so it’s really just clever layering of the 6-String samples. But it works! And it’s included at no extra charge (or gigabytes!)
  • We also include effects like falls, chucks, and scrapes.

Now, we could have sampled gigabyte after gigabyte, 10 round robins, 10 velocities . . . that’s a lot of work! Which means we’d have to charge you top dollar for that. Plus you’d have the bigger RAM hit, along with long load times that go with it.

Instead, we focused on what’s actually important. The sound. We got the sound we want with few articulations and a couple round robins and we have what we believe is an instrument you can use on 90% of your acoustic guitar tracks.

Handy Performance Features

“Left/Right” mapping

With this mode enabled, you'll get the main 3 octaves of the guitar available on two different sections of your keyboard. (With alternate samples, of course.) This way, you can play repeated notes or strums, by alternating left and right hands, and they will sound natural. Check out the video and you’ll see what we mean.

Keyswitches

Allowing you to change articulations on the fly from your keyboard or MIDI input

Effects (FX)

Built-in FX, tailored to work best with Acoustic Lite.

We adjusted these so that when you turn a knob, it will sound good for most of the range. It’s all about saving time! We all have plenty of effects in our sequencers already, but these effects are set up to work specifically for this acoustic.
