The ManyGuitar sound library includes a wide range of guitars and basses. Each instrument has been extensively multi-sampled, often at several velocities and with a mute layer included. In addition to the single note samples, there are some chord sets and also some new lead guitar styles.
This extensive sound library has then been coupled with a highly efficient sample playback engine (based on the EVE One engine from Dash Signature) with a custom amplifier and speaker cabinet emulator and an FX rack designed exclusively for ManyGuitar. The amp section also includes a "deep amp" mode that is suited to bass and other low toned guitars.
ManyGuitar also comes with two additional FREE tools:
- ManyMiniAmp is a VST effect guitar amp and cabinet simulator with a built in compressor. As well as guitars and basses, this is a great effect for mangling drums, loops and can give some unique vocal effects. [more]
- ManyMapper is a graphical sample mapping utility allowing users to quickly and easily create soundsets that can be used in ManyStation and ManyGuitar from wav files. As well as allowing users to map their samples to create their own soundsets, ManyMapper also allows mapping files to be saved and reloaded so that soundsets can be tweaked. [more]
ManyGuitar is available now as a VSTi for Windows for $89.99 (download) or $104.99 (CD/DVD). Owners of Manytone's ManyStation may purchase ManyGuitar until the end of 2005 at the discounted price of $49.99.
