Handmade Sounds has released Bouzouki 8-string Acoustic, a Greek bouzouki sample library for Kontakt.

This library is designed to capture the sound of the bouzouki and simulate a realistic playing technique.

 

The library is comprised of 1500+ 24-bit samples and a single Kontakt instrument patch. Note on and release samples were recorded chromatically—that is, every fret of every course, sampled at soft, medium and hard velocities, down and up strokes, hammer-on, pull-off, slide and tremolo articulations. There are also multiple takes for customary major, minor and diminished chords and multiple noise samples including body resonance, fret and pick noises.

 

Features

  • 1547 24-bit/44.1-kHz, full-length samples (no loops other than tremolo articulation).
  • Chromatically sampled; all 27 fret positions, all 4 courses.
  • Soft, medium, hard velocity levels for each note.
  • Alternating down/up strokes for each velocity level.
  • Sustained, Hammer-On, Pull-Off, Tremolo and Slide articulations, all chromatically sampled.
  • 1, 2 and 3 semitone Hammer-On and Pull-Off samples per note.
  • Sampled major, minor and diminished chords, with all customary inversions.
  • Realistic playing noises layered at adjustable levels.
  • Automatic or manual control of course/fret positioning, articulation and up/down stroke.
  • Adjustable thresholds for fast/slow auto-positioning, fast/slow picking, forced down-stroke.
  • Mono/Poly voice modes, for solo or polyphonic playing (4-voice max, one per course).
  • Real-time fretboard display of the note position/articulation for precise control.
  • Pitch-bend wheel triggered slides.
  • Velocity controlled slide duration.
  • Basic effects suite (EQ, Compressor, Reverb, Limiter) in user interface.


Requirements

Native Instruments Kontakt version 4.1.1 or higher full retail version is required. The free Kontakt Player does not support this library.
