Using a wide, close pair of large-diaphragm mics in a dry studio, they painstakingly sampled all three string runs (low octave, middle and high unison) with 12x round robin and up to 6 velocity layers for open notes going up 1.5 octaves per string. They also captured palm mutes, string chokes, releases and tons of percussive effects.<\/p>\n<p>They sampled a wide legato, or \u201cslide\u201d range for all three runs of strings with multiple velocity layers and 4x round robin. the Saz interface offers full control over how a note is played and which string it is played on. Hammer-on, pull-off, slide, choke and palm mute are all controlled per-string.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019ve also included an intelligent auto-strumming system. There are special patches for creating custom tunedpercussion blends, effects, Uberpeggiator and of course ambiences. It also has a dynamic and adaptive arpeggiation system, capable of freestyle and 32-step tempo-synched humanized groove creation and chord\/key constraint. The FX rack gives you access to Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Dynamics, Drive (featuring 4 different effects), 2 amp sims, 8 cabs, EQ, Filter, tempo-synched Delay and convolution Reverb with dozens of custom room and FX impulses.<\/p>\n<h2>CONTENTS<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Open notes covering 1\u00bd octaves per string (12x RR)<\/li>\n<li>Note releases covering 1\u00bd octaves per string (12x RR)<\/li>\n<li>Palm Mute notes covering 1\u00bd octaves per string (12x RR)<\/li>\n<li>Choked notes per string (12x RR)<\/li>\n<li>True legato &#8220;slide&#8221; samples covering over an octave per string (4x RR)<\/li>\n<li>5 Different body impacts (12x RR)<\/li>\n<li>A variety of string scrape effects<\/li>\n<li>Dozens of finger slide sound effects ranging from short to long<\/li>\n<li>22 sound design ambient pads and leads built from bowing, eBowing and other methods<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Acoustic Saz includes a brand new innovative interface for amazing control:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Performance controls closely simulate real-world saz Functionality<\/li>\n<li>Tuned Percussion preset type that allows two simultaneous yet independently controlled layers.<\/li>\n<li>70 custom environmental, room and FX reverbs integrated into every preset<\/li>\n<li>The Uberpeggiator meta-arp system with velocity step sequencer, humanization, adaptive modes, roll simulation, chord and scale control and custom pattern loading (K5 only)<\/li>\n<li>The Strumulator strumming system provides easy 1-key strums based on 12 different chords using multi-samples.<\/li>\n<li>The Uberpeggiator meta-arp system with velocity step sequencer, humanization, adaptive modes, roll simulation, chord and scale control and custom pattern loading (K5 only)<\/li>\n<li>The Glissatron arppegiation system provides easy 1-key glisses and arpeggios based on a variety of scales with customizable rhythm, direction, velocity and humanization.<\/li>\n<li>Powerful new FX Rack with 8 fully-automatable FX modules from distortions to reverb.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 33.3333%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0371\/2865\/products\/performance_74cec6f4-87a6-4ccd-95f9-03c72bc9ccdc_1024x1024.jpg?v=1583275219\" alt=\"Acoustic Saz Pluginsmasters\" width=\"442\" height=\"486\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 442px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 442\/486;\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 33.3333%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0371\/2865\/products\/strumulator_2d090622-fd23-448c-a3c8-9bcc72f0870d_1024x1024.jpg?v=1583275219\" alt=\"Acoustic Saz Pluginsmasters\" width=\"466\" height=\"513\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 466px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 466\/513;\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 33.3333%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0371\/2865\/products\/layer_0_a3948a2e-3c37-4f63-bb9f-6358ee7ba9fc_1024x1024.jpg?v=1583275219\" alt=\"Acoustic Saz Pluginsmasters\" width=\"524\" height=\"576\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 524px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 524\/576;\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/youtu.be\/71cjnfrvn6c<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":37877,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[3538],"product_cat":[148,1178,439,21],"product_tag":[154,78,437,2231,66,814],"class_list":{"0":"post-37878","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_brand-soundiron","7":"product_cat-beat-production","8":"product_cat-expansion-pack","9":"product_cat-guitars","10":"product_cat-virtual-instruments","11":"product_tag-beatmaking","12":"product_tag-guitar","13":"product_tag-kontakt","14":"product_tag-kontakt-library","15":"product_tag-synth","16":"product_tag-virtual-instrument","18":"first","19":"instock","20":"sale","21":"downloadable","22":"virtual","23":"taxable","24":"purchasable","25":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.6 -
