01Overview

GUITARS: Cloud Harmonics comes from KLANG, a team of composers who describe a long connection with the guitar. Rather than sampling the instrument in a conventional way, the product reinterprets it. Played notes are captured and sustained through a chain of delays set to an endless feedback loop. A low-pass filter and a volume control let you shape that loop, so it behaves less like a repeat and more like a soft, sustained cloud behind the guitar. It runs inside Kontakt.

03In depth

Freezing Guitar Notes Into Clouds

The core idea of the instrument is to freeze played notes. A chain of delays, all locked into an endless feedback loop, holds the sound in place after it is played.

The generated loop can then be processed. A low-pass filter darkens the material, and a volume control sets how present the loop sits in the mix. Together these turn the frozen notes into a cloud-like layer suited to accompanying a guitar line.

If you prefer, you can leave the loop running without further processing and let the infinite sustain carry on by itself.

Who Cloud Harmonics Suits

Cloud Harmonics fits producers and composers who want guitar-derived pads and ambient textures rather than a clean guitar tone. Its approach suits atmospheric beds, sustained backdrops and sound design where a guitar part needs a sustained layer underneath.

Because the instrument is built on a delay feedback loop, its character depends on how you play it and how you set the filter and volume. It is a Kontakt instrument, so it needs Kontakt to run.
