Details

The library includes multiple round-robins in both pick directions and three dynamic layers, ensuring a nuanced performance. Articulations cover sustains, palm mutes, fully muted notes, and natural harmonics, alongside extended techniques such as legato articulations and effects like string slaps and divebombs. The sampling was conducted at Rosewood Recording Company, utilising analog equipment to enhance the guitar's rich tonal qualities, with Rich Dixon providing expert performance.

Equipped with the Evolution guitar engine, the library features a strumming pattern editor, automatic chord detection, and a robust effects engine. It supports a powerful mapping system for triggering articulations based on various conditions, including velocity ranges and MIDI CCs. With factory presets tailored for classic and modern jazz tones, Evolution Jazz Archtop is designed to integrate seamlessly into your mix.
