Hoard Picked Acoustic is a versatile and flexible legato guitar library designed for Kontakt.
As with the Hoard Mandolin library , our goal was to create an instrument that could easily play a wide range of guitar tunes, eliminating the need to switch keys.
The Master Legato Core Patch is a versatile workhorse that includes multiple legato articulations: natural legato, pinch slide (with CC slide speed control), hammer-on/pull-off, and non-pinch slide—all easily switchable via speed control . Additionally, we’ve added a signature legato palm mute patch that has its own unique flavor.
Equally important is the Performance Sustains patch, which showcases five speed levels, including two softest ones for playing with palm mute and light palm mute, greatly expanding the range of phrase creation possibilities.
To enhance the authenticity of your guitar tracks, we’ve included a rich yet subtle fret noise patch, as well as tone, breath and movement inserts – all designed to add character, warmth and humanity to your compositions.
For added versatility, we’ve thoughtfully included several updated and redundant patch versions to suit your double track requirements.
