Splash Sound has announced the release of a new power chords electric guitar sample library for Native Instruments Kontakt: Power Riffer.

It can’t play arpeggios or solos. It does not have dozens of techniques for sound extraction or adjusting the angle of the mediator’s position. But it can play POWER CHORDS and does it best of all!

As the instrument was not created for passages or hard solos, we didn’t have to record each note separately, and then write a complex script that would mimic the guitarist playing. We immediately recorded the guitarist and the necessary chords! Thanks to this, Power Riffer does not imitate a guitar, but is a real recorded guitar.

features

  • Automatic and Manual playing mode: In the automatic mode, the script will independently choose which technique to use when change a chord (slide up, slide down, pull-off or hammer-on). In the manual mode, you choose how the chord will be rearranged.
  • Double track mode: The activation of this mode allows you to send two different takes of recording the same guitar part to the left and the right channel at the same time.
  • Audio source switch: In the DI-Box position, the library will play the pure guitar sound recorded in line through the DI-Box. In this mode, you can use together with the library a VST plug-in that you usually use to emulate guitar cabinets and amplifiers.

Available for the full version of Kontakt 6.4.2 or higher, Power Riffer is on sale for $30 USD until December 8th, 2023 (regular $44 USD).
