In Session Audio releases Soundtrack Acoustic Guitar for Kontakt, WAV & AIF formats

By HC News | June 7, 2014

Soundtrack Acoustic Guitar presents a sensitive finger-tip touch to an array of emotive chords, progressions and single line melodies. Performed and recorded with sophistication and depth, this loop library can set a foundation or top off an existing idea for anyone producing delicate and expressive music.

Producer’s Notes:

“We wanted to give the composer options. So we came up with a layout that offers lots of parts for each suite and has the ability to seamlessly combine melodic lines with chordal passages for a “two player” sound.

After a few parts were written for each suite, we would identify the overall feel: bittersweet, contentment, expectant, mournful, etc., going so far as discussing the type of scene or visual the music could accompany.

To achieve a broader range of tones and feel, nearly every suite had its chordal passages recorded with a capo placed at a different fret of the guitar’s neck. The entire range of the neck was used for the melody lines.

The guitar used on this project was a Lowden O25C. All chordal passages were recorded in stereo using a Neumann KM184 cardioid condenser microphone paired with a Studio Projects T3 vacuum tube microphone. All melody lines were recorded in stereo using a pair of KM184s. Everything was recorded through a Benchmark PRE420 preamp.”
