Syntone has released Rosella Classical Guitar for Kontakt.
Rosella is an extensively sampled nylon string guitar in a classical style. Not only were typical sustains, hammer-ons/pull-offs and slides sampled, but many other articulations were too. A list of articulations are as follows:
- Sustains.
- Staccato.
- Sul Ponticello.
- Muted.
- Vibrato.
- Tremolo.
- Harmonics (both natural and artificial).
- Mordents (both half tone and whole tone).
- Scratch Tones.
- Body Percussion.
- Hammer-ons/Pull-offs.
- Slides.
Fret noise was also sampled to create more realism in performances. This is aided by the custom scripting that allows the user to load or unload any articulations, lock sustains, intelligently read legato playing, treat incoming notes like they are on the guitar and much more.
Specifications:
- 6500+ Samples.
- Up to 4RR, 16 articulations.
- Custom legato and scripting.
- 48kHz/24-bit quality.
- 7.42GB (3.18GB compressed).
- Full Kontakt v4.2.4+ Required.
Price: $139AUD. There is an introductory price of $79AUD until January 5th, 2014. For more information, please check the website.
