TAPED: Corroded Wires is a Kontakt instrument by KLANG that recreates a hazy guitar sound by running a Telecaster-style tone through tape delays and saturation. It requires the full version of Kontakt 5.6.8 or higher.
KLANG built the TAPED collection around the nostalgic appeal of tape, from late-night radio as a child to demo recordings on a four-track. Corroded Wires is a guitar instrument in that set. KLANG describes it as a hauntingly beautiful sound created by playing a Telecaster through several tape delays with different time intervals, then blending in organ and guitar tones with tape saturation distortion. The result is intentionally warm and imperfect.
Corroded Wires centers on a Telecaster tone that has been passed through multiple tape delays set to different time intervals. KLANG says these repeats, combined with tape saturation distortion, give the instrument its hazy, worn-in quality.
The instrument also layers organ and guitar tones into the mix. This blend shifts the sound away from a clean electric guitar toward something more atmospheric, with the warmth and imperfection that define the TAPED series.
Because Corroded Wires is built on the Telecaster sound and tape delay textures, it suits producers looking for lo-fi or dreamy guitar parts rather than a neutral clean guitar. The character is most distinctive when played with space and repetition in mind.
The instrument runs inside Kontakt, so it fits into any workflow that already uses Native Instruments' sampler environment.
