Here you can find all relevant information you need for working with the Kontakt™ library version of Authentic Guitar.
On the Kontakt implementations page you can find out how the patches are organized within the instruments, plus the download location of a pdf with an overview of the full library with all instruments and patches.
Please note that new patches from the VSTi version will be incorporated in this Kontakt version as soon as possible. See the manual [41 KB]
for the most recent 'status quo'.
Kontakt™ ( 2.2.3 or higher) as sampler
The possibilities of scripting in the Kontakt™ Native Instruments sampler make it very interesting for emulating such a versatile instrument as the classical guitar, there is no other sampler with these qualities.
So a.o. the notorious machine-gun effect can been avoided where necessary in relevant instruments.
You can easily change the attack of hammering or pulling in the slurs patch, if necessary even with a specific CC, so it's possible to alter and customize it within one piece!
Tweakable huminazing concerning parameters as velocity, volume, and timing are also involved in the Authentic Guitar library.
After loading the Authentic Guitar Full Library just make your 'basic sound choice' by setting the appropriate program number. Within most instruments [41 KB]
you can switch with your CC1 controller between "normal sound" and the instrument(-s) you need.
So this library has been setup with two parameters (program number & CC1) which can be customized where and whenever you need. Generally you will need two or three layers: staves, voices or channels for high quality emulation. But just loading only the right basic patch often gives you a decent result.
Since not all Kontakt™ scripts are to be distributed without legal permission for Musesamples we offer you some links to some of the best scripts to tweak this library any further. Only for registered users.
