• the film composer Guillermo Guareschi surprises us with new sampling and scripting techniques. The Cuatro was recorded in his new studio in the Sierras of the Spanish Mediterranean
• where he achieved a significant upgrade in the sound. ''As a film composer and music producer
• I designed The Cuatro with the tools necessary to create intuitively and with a minimal learning curve to capture the idiomatic language of the instrument in mind.'' Besides being a powerful tool for creating authentic South American music
• The Cuatro works wonderfully in modern productions
• such as pop music
• chill out
• world music
• and film music
• among other genres. Thanks to its open organic sound
• it can easily take effects such as reverb
• delay
• chorus
• phaser
• and anything else you can think of. The Cuatro was sampled using a beautiful long-neck cuatro (17 frets) from Barquisimeto
• Venezuela. It has been used for over 15 years in many movie scores
• TV series
• and music productions. The Cuatro was meticulously sampled to capture its authentic timbre. Each note has four dynamics with 4 RR per dynamic
• a total of 16 samples per note. Besides chords
• palm mutes
• and many other articulations
• I have created additional modes: Octave
• Double Cuatro
• and Andean Tuning. These modes will give you a fresh palette for creating big and rich sounding arrangements for ensembles or solo cuatro pieces. Custom-made equipment was used for this presentation. Krystalos Audio technology was present in all the chains of the recording process. I have designed Krystalos Audio optimizers to produce an organic and detailed analog sound with the latest digital equipment.
