Product Description

• A Homemade Fretted Single-Stringed Folk Instrument library built for Kontakt Canjo is a homemade single-stringed fretted instrument made from a wood stick
• string tuner
• and tin can. The can resonates with a twangy and metallic tone and sounds like a cross between a banjo and mountain dulcimer. It is typically held like a guitar
• but can also be played on a table or lap. The Canjo is fretted diatonically with a 12 note range
• making it perfect for pluckin’ folk melodies on the back porch or around a campfire. In true Soundiron fashion
• they tinkered to stretch Canjo’s sonic abilities to its limits
• capturing fully playable picked plucks
• plucks
• harsh plucks
• slides
• bowed sustains
• staccatos
• and spiccatos. After that
• they created a wide selection of ambient soundscapes
• pads
• and drones from the source content to make the library even more versatile. This Canjo is equally comfortable playing traditional Americana or masquerading as a convincing brittle viola
• cheap slide guitar
• or melancholy erhu. Contents The Kontakt interface includes a suite of automation-ready sound-shaping controls to give you total creative flexibility. You have control over swell
• attack
