Soundiron Acoustic Saz KONTAKT-MAGNETRiXX



Welcome to Soundiron’s Acoustic Saz library! Acoustic Saz is a truly, deeply sampled 5-string acoustic saz baglâma library for Kontakt with a huge range of extended content, an innovative new custom interface and cutting-edge powerful performance features. This beautiful fretless Saz was procured directly from the streets of Turkey, where master craftsman have been building them by hand for centuries. We painstakingly sampled all three "runs” of strings (low octave, middle single and high unison) with a massive 12x round robin and up to 6 velocity layers for open notes on an octave and a half per string. Continuing the depth are palm mutes, string chokes, release samples and a slew of percussive effects all at 12x round robin with multiple velocity layers.

We set out to make the Acoustic Saz the most realistic, playable and flexible instrument we could, expertly capturing it’s naturally beautiful sound in stunning clarity and unmatched depth. With a powerful custom interface, intelligent pluck mode, hand position, tuning, key range, chord, strum, legato, arpeggiation, effects rack and advanced custom performance technologies, we put the power of the real instrument right in your hands. Enjoy!

Functionality

The Saz is a very expressive instrument, so we carefully sampled a wide legato, or "slide” range for all three runs of strings with multiple velocity layers and 4x round robin. Our exciting new interface offers unique control over how a note is played and which string it is played on, allowing you to flip between features instantly at the push of a button. Hammer-on, pull-off, slide, choke and palm mute are all controlled on a per string (or all strings) basis, which can be momentary (as long as a key is held) or latching (turned on and off with subsequent presses of the key).

We’ve also included an intelligent auto-strumming system called the "Strumulator”, giving you instant access to 12 different chords which automatically ensures that each note is played on the appropriate string. There are special patches for creating custom tunedpercussion blends, effects, Uberpeggiator and of course ambiences.

Each and every preset also includes a powerful Effects control panel, featuring a parametric EQ for tone shaping and our powerful exclusive Uberpeggiator system, capable of freestyle and 32-step tempo-synched humanized groove creation, sustaining rolls, chord- and key-constraint and custom arpeggiation pattern saving and loading.

Brand new to the Acoustic Saz is our powerful Effects Rack system. This new system gives you an elegant and intuitive interface with access to a wide range of effects including Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Dynamics, Drive (featuring 4 different effects), 2 amp sims, 8 cabs, EQ, Filter, tempo-synched Delay and convolution Reverb with a bunch of new custom impulses.

NKI Program Presets

You’ll need the full retail version of Kontakt 5 or later to use the nki presets in this libary. We’ve also included legacy K4 versions of the main presets as well for Kontakt 4 users. Sorry, the free Kontakt Player does not support this library and cannot be used to play it beyond a 15-minute demo period.

We’ve included 24 Kontakt-compatible nki programs, featuring automatable attack, release, offset, swell, key-range customization, EQ, plus a built-in effects rack featuring convolution reverb with 70 different room and fx types to choose from, chorus, flanger, phaser, distortion, bit-crusher, dynamics, delay, amp sim, cab sim and filter. However, even if you’re not a Kontakt user, all samples are included as standard unlocked pcm wav files, so you can custom design your own instruments in any audio software you like.
