AcousticGuitar 3.0

AcousticGuitar 3.0 – The TRUE Acoustic Guitar for Kontakt
Fingerstyle, Pick Style and Automatic Strummer in one library. Smooth dynamics, natural legato, realistic slides, and instant strumming.
Bring the soul of a real acoustic guitar into your productions.

Main Features.

Legato that breathes
Smooth hammer-ons, pull-offs, and trills connect your phrases with realism. Notes flow into each other as they would on a fretboard.

Key Switches for real playing
Trigger bass notes, upstrokes, downstrokes, slides, bends, and harmonics in real time. Everything is under your fingers with intuitive keyswitches.

Strumming made natural
Adjust the delay between notes for authentic strums. Play softer and the strum slows down; play harder and it speeds up. You decide the groove.

Pick Position
Move the pick from neck to bridge for warm, mellow tones or bright, cutting attacks – all with a single slider.

Palm Mutes
Shape the muting dynamically, from subtle damping to heavy funk grooves.

String Buzz
Control the string height to add realistic fret buzz or keep it clean for pristine fingerpicking.

Automatic Strummer
Type a chord, and the engine strums for you. Create and edit patterns in real time with steps, articulations, swing, and pick intensity. Add bass inversions or play bass manually for complete control.

Stereo double-tracking
Simulate the effect of recording two takes, perfectly matched left and right, with just one patch.

System Requirements.

Kontakt: Full version of Kontakt 6 or higher is required.
Not compatible with the free Kontakt Player.

Why not the free Player?
The free Kontakt Player only runs in demo mode with third-party libraries like Pettinhouse. After a short time, the instrument stops playing and needs to be reloaded. To use AcousticGuitar 3.0 without interruptions, you must own the full version of Kontakt.

Compatibility with Mac Silicon: Kontakt 6 works under Rosetta emulation on Apple Silicon Macs. While the library functions correctly, running Kontakt 6 in Rosetta consumes more CPU resources.
For best performance on Mac M1/M2/M3, we recommend using Kontakt 7 or higher, which runs natively on Apple Silicon.

Operating System: macOS 10.14 or later / Windows 10 or later.

RAM: Minimum 4 GB (8 GB recommended).

Disk Space: Around 1.5GB.
