eBow Guitar
A simple sample library built on a sampled guitar being played with an 'eBow'.
ByStephen Clee
The story
This is a simple instrument that originates from the sampled sound of an electric guitar being played with an eBow, in this case ‘AEON’ by tc electronic.
You will need the full version of Kontakt to run this instrument.
This is my first venture into scripting for Kontakt and was deliberately designed with a simple user interface to allow me to explore this without tying myself in knots!!
There are only three sections to adjust from the front GUI; reverb, freak & two aspects of the envelope.
Obviously, feel free to click on the spanner and edit away behind the scenes and have some fun!

An Ambient Journey with the Ebow
This library inspired me to break out my old Ebow. This tool produces a simple tone perfect for building an ambient texture. I happy to see the "Freak" processor used for this library. Automating the frequency control allows the Ebow to jump out in certain moments of your track.
This is a great first release. I would love to see more experimentation with creating rhythms by moving the Ebow. Maybe even adding more effects similar to "Freak". Thank you for sharing your creation!
