Applied Acoustics Systems has announced the release of a new sound pack for the Strum GS-2 virtual guitar instrument and AAS Player plugin.
A collaboration with Brazilian producer and keyboard virtuoso, and resident sound designer Thiago Pinheiro, Brazil Now captures the ever-evolving spirit of Brazilian music, where tradition and innovation move forward side by side.
Far beyond postcard samba and bossa nova, Brazil Now brings together the grooves filling radios, clubs, and street parties from Rio to Salvador. Rooted in tradition yet infused with funk, rock, pop, and regional energy, this collection delivers the contemporary rhythms shaping Brazilian music right now.
From celebratory and sun-drenched to raw, percussive, and groove-driven, its carefully crafted presets reflect the diversity and motion of a country constantly reinventing its sound, while staying unmistakably Brazilian.
Brazil Now is on sale for the intro price of $19 USD for a limited time (regular $39 USD). To mark the release, everything Strum is 50% off until March 31, 2026, and all Strum GS-2 purchases include the new Brazil Now pack.
