Guitar Tremolo Pads

I was working on an indie game and found myself needing a very specific sound: the sound of a nylon guitar plucked really softly, slowly and irregularly. But I couldn’t find a library anywhere that had this sound.

I ended up grabbing my old and beat up classical guitar from LIDL (yes, LIDL) and learnt the basics of Kontakt to make it myself. I would like to thank Dave Hilowitz for his amazing videos on this subject! I uploaded the finished product first to Gumroad for 1$ and then for free via a link to google drive. Three of my friends were kind enough to buy it though (I know who you are – thank you 🙂 )

But I think more people could find this useful and when I found out about Pianobook it felt almost like a perfect fit to upload it here! Might update this in the future with a knob for reverb and delay – though you can easily adjust that in the edit mode.

I’m really happy with this since I got lots of use out of it and I’m proud that I actually managed to make something myself 😀 I love sample libraires, so making one myself was really fun but I’ll probably never do it again because so much work ugh

UPDATE: Some people have asked – so I’m now working on a Decent Sampler version! Hoping to make it better than the Kontakt version. The Kontakt version might also see an update if I have the time!
