Jazz Guitar Styles and Strumming Patterns

The sound bank is organized into 12 styles, each with a set of guitar presets and matching strumming patterns. Applied Acoustics Systems says the patterns emphasize the foundations of jazz rhythm, including up-tempo funky strums.

Because the patterns are designed to follow your chords, you can use them under your own progressions rather than working from fixed loops. This makes the bank a practical choice for building rhythm guitar parts for jazz arrangements, whether you need a light comping feel or a driving big band section.

Since the presets are played inside Strum GS-2, you can combine them with the plugin's Guitar, Keyboard, and Loop modes, along with the preset variations, to shape the part.

Who Is Yves Frulla?

Yves Frulla is the sound designer behind the collection. He is a Canadian songwriter, producer, and keyboardist, best known as Celine Dion's keyboard player. He runs his own project studio and has recorded three live albums with Celine Dion.

His background also includes television and film work and touring with Canadian artists such as Corey Hart and Sass Jordan. The developer frames All That Jazz as a tribute to some of the jazz guitar greats.
