Quick Overview (Full version)

Six-String-Audio presents ULTIMATE-ROCK-GUITAR-6, the most detailed multi-sample-library of a custom electric rock guitar up-to-date with 14 different articulations added by 34 Chord Groups, Special Chords and further extras, resulting in over 40 GB sample material of only one pickup, the bridge humbucker pickup, compressed to 26,4 GB with Native Instruments‘ lossless audio compression!

Having recorded an Ibanez-RG-Series guitar with unparalleled detail, we tried to capture the essential nuances of rock guitar playing, re-creating the almost perfect emulation of a rock guitar. We recorded the pure direct-in-signal (DI) of the bridge humbucker pickup, so you can sculpture the sound to your taste. Run it through a professional amp simulation and enjoy!

Unlike other sample libraries, ULTIMATE ROCK GUITAR 6 comes with a huge palette of pre-recorded chord samples. The reason is evident: It sounds better, tighter, much more realistic.
Therefore we recorded all the chords inevitable for authentic rock guitar tracks. But not enough! We painstakingly recorded them in detail, resulting in up to 4 velocity layers, upstrokes, various palm-mutes, slide-in, slides, hammer-ons and pull-offs.
To accomplish the chord section, we recorded a bunch of SPECIAL CHORDS, mainly open stringed chords. All together summing up to 38 GB of pre-recorded chord samples, an effort other companies did not even consider!



FRETBOARD MONITOR

Ultimate Rock Guitar comes with a lovingly crafted fretboard monitor, that combines the fretboard with tablature and notation, and also presents all playing techniques and ornaments in a detailed and dynamic way.
Be it legato, slides (portamento), glissandi, tremolo picking, tapping, unison bends, harmonics, artificial harmonics, vibratos, dips and dives, … You won’t miss anything!





Free assignable keyswitches, velocity split keyswitches and velocity layer mappings give you the opportunity to customize how articulations are mapped and triggered! This allows you to create the setup that perfectly meets your needs.

ONBOARD FX

The Fx-Rack uses the onboard effects of KONTAKT, giving you the option to shape your sound immediately for a first go. Well, to be honest, we recommend using professional amp simulation software instead. There are cool freeware amp, speaker and Fx-pedal-simulations on the web, doing a great job.



SKINS

Ultimate Rock Guitar 2.0 allows you to setup your own guitar skin. This seems to be only a cool gimmick at first glimpse, but it becomes helpful if you are using more than one instance of ULTIMATE-ROCK-GUITAR-6 in your project. Each skin is stored with the selected Guitar/Random-Mode.
Choose from 20 factory skin presets or choose different guitar-bodies, necks, and pickups to create your own guitar setup.
