8DIO/Troels Folmann releases "Progressive Metal Guitar" for Kontakt and "Rhythmic Aura RMX" for Stylus RMX

8DIO/Troels Folmann has announced the release of Rhythmic Aura RMX for Stylus RMX and the imminent release of Progressive Metal Guitar for Kontakt.

Progressive Metal delivers a collection of "brutally hard rocking" 7- and 8-string guitars in the style of Djent (e.g. Meshuggah, Periphery, Rammstein & Metallica). The collection contains over +60 patches and over 1500 deep-sampled phrases organized for song writing (chorus, verse, intro, outro, etc.). The full product contains over 600 minutes of high-end session material boiled down to the meanest collection of phat heavy guitars.

Progressive Metal was created with some of the best 8 strings (e.g. Mayones Custom, EST/LTD, Ibanes RG series) fitted with world-class pickups (e.g. Bare Knuckle, Aftermath, Lundgren), pre-amps (Fractal Audio), amps (e.g. Mesa Rectifier, Diezel VH4). 8DIO says that this is the most comprehensive selection of 8-string heavy guitars ever sampled.
