Scoring Guitars is a Kontakt instrument from Heavyocity built from guitar sound sources, with pads, phrases, pulse loops and performance palettes for cinematic scoring. It runs in Kontakt and is sold as a direct download.
Scoring Guitars is a guitar-based sample library from Heavyocity, part of its GRAVITY family of instruments. Its 760-plus sound sources cover layered pads, single pads, ambient and drone menus, and tempo-synced pulse loops. The library is aimed at composers who want guitar textures for atmosphere, tonal beds and underscore, and it also includes Motion pages and Trigger FX for shaping sound in real time.
The library is built from recorded guitar and amp sources that Heavyocity processed into a large set of sound design elements. The developer describes the sounds as crisp harmonics and pulses, warm reverses and dramatic phrases.
The collection includes 30 complex pads, 276 single pads, 87 single pulses and 10 pulse and phrase menus. That range makes it suited to building ethereal beds as well as rhythmic textures under a score.
Scoring Guitars includes 180-plus snapshots, 300-plus motion presets and 12 performance palettes, giving you a fast starting point for different moods. The Motion page lets you create advanced volume, pitch and pan patterns.
Playable Trigger FX provide real-time control during performance. The instrument is also available in stand-alone, VST, AU and AAX formats when used within Kontakt.
