The Sound
The Chime Guitar preset delivers rich, atmospheric tones perfect for creating cinematic soundscapes. Its distinct and versatile nature captures the essence of a ’60s guitar. With its signature chime and floating tremolo system, this preset is ready to enhance your tracks with richness and authenticity.
Desolate Guitars Fragment was recorded using the classic pairing of Shure SM57 and Royer Ribbon R-121 microphones, processed through the renowned Shelford channels by Rupert Neve Designs.
Amps and Real Spring Reverb
Desolate Guitars Fragment features two iconic vintage amps, often referred to as the American clean and British chime. With meticulously chosen tubes and speakers, these amps are essential for delivering a sound that transforms each note, capturing the authentic charm of an era.
The spring reverb is anything but ordinary. We’ve recorded the magic of the classic amp spring – the kind well known for its unique character and depth. Unlike standard modeled reverbs, our approach brings the lively, dynamic quality of real spring reverb to life. Each sample is recorded four times through two amps, each with dry and wet options. The result is an ever-evolving reverb that adds rich depth and character to your music, echoing the timeless classics.
Tremolo
Desolate Guitars Fragment prioritizes authentic sound in every detail, including the tremolo. We’ve meticulously recreated the amp tremolos to deliver a sound true to the originals ensuring that your music carries the spirit of the classics.
With sync-to-host functionality, you get the perfect blend of vintage charm and modern convenience, ensuring seamless integration into your music production workflow.
