Zither Sound and Articulations
The library captures two playing styles for each note. The open-string sample keeps the natural sympathetic resonance of the instrument. The damped sample uses a foam pad placed under the strings near the bridge, which produces a percussive attack and a quick decay that still carries a warm reverb tail from the undamped segments.
Upper and lower plucks, open or damped, and harmonic or atonal glisses are available across four layers, so you can combine them in the Kontakt interface. The developer says the zither's unison and octave relationships create shared resonances and subtle chorusing from natural tuning variations.
