The story
RJS LoFi Nylon is a finger picked nylon string guitar. The instrument features true-legato (hammer-on, pull-off) transitions, slides, subtle vibrato, and guitar handling noises. The UI offers switchable lofi effects. The instrument is designed to be paired with RJS LoFi Recorder. (User guide included.)
The instrument has only one velocity layer so it’s not a strong solo instrument. The samples were recorded with a Shure SM57 microphone. The sound is not pretty and clean (noise-free).
RJS Sampling Suite script collection for Reaper was an indispensable help while creating the samples. You can find more information about these automation tools on my YouTube channel.
About the Decent Sampler version of the instrument: The original library relies heavily on Kontakt’s script engine so it is impossible to make the Decent Sampler version work exactly the same way. The DS version is an adaptation of the Kontakt version and the two differ in legato functionality, keyswitching, and sound options. (Please read ‘readme.txt’ for more information.)
