Ambient Guitar Tremors

70's Fender recorded with eBow tremors.

ByJoshua Meltzer

The story

I made this instrument using an old Dan Electro through an early 70’s Fender Princeton. I used an E-bow not for sustain but more as a tremolo effect. I was raking the E-bow back and forth across the strings . I mapped it across the keyboard so that the tempos of the tremors were all random. I like the higher range for an ethereal vibe, but try really low registers for some cool ominous pulses.

  • Nice for giving a mild electro spice

    I like the tremor it gives, and the waves. It has a very unique character so it should stand out when mixed with other libraries.

    In your face and delicate, this is definitely an art piece of a library and a must have for anyone doing anything remotely textural, ambient, or melodic. Stands well on its own or layered

  • Tremors and Chills!

    I love the character of this instrument. It's simple yet so effective. There are no options for you to manage, but I'm sure you will find many uses for it. I'd love to see an ADSR setting or at least dynamics control with the modwheel, and a custom delay controller would be simply amazing.
