AudioWarrior has introduced Kreator LE Acoustic Dreadnought, a sound library sampled from a premium quality finely crafted acoustic dreadnought guitar with a cedar-top-soundboard known for its warmth and resonance, flame maple and wood binding, ebony head-plate, fret board and bridge, abalone and wood rosette, solid wood back and sides.
This instrument can be played virtually in Kreator's Standalone mode or as a plug-in in your preferred sequencer. Standalone Mode requires no other software. As a Plug-in it integrates with all major recording hosts such as Cubase, Nuendo, Logic, Sonar, and Digidesign Pro Tools.
Kreator Acoustic Dreadnought is designed to let you use a strumming action on a MIDI keyboard, in real time, to strum guitar chords. Kreator's programming takes care of organizing the individual notes into chords, ready for performance. The up/down strumming motion on a guitar translates to a left/right strumming motion on your preferred non-weighted keyboard with the included soft nylon guitar pick. The notes of the chords may also be played individually.
The half-gig library consists of a completely sampled 6-string acoustic dreadnought guitar that lives in your computer. It has been sampled on all open strings and all frets up to the top 20th fret with extremely sensitive and expressive velocity layers per chord and chromatic patches. It includes harmonics patch from all 6 strings sampled at the 5th, 7th, and 12th fret.
Kreator LE Acoustic Dreadnought supports strum forward, strum reverse, or playing individual notes of the chords including Natural Harmonics. It's possible to map out an entire simple acoustic guitar song with all the chords ready to be played in 24-bit high resolution on your keyboard in a few minutes. You can position 16 chords per each 16-program slots per instance.
