简介BARITONE GUITAR WASHES 是一款多功能的 Kontakt 乐器，其采样录音源自一把由 NUDE Guitars 手工定制的铝制琴颈男中音电吉他（见下图）。该乐器拥有深沉的共鸣和令人难以置信的延音，非常适合用于制作长音垫和其他氛围音色。

BARITONE GUITAR WASHES 基于我们专有的 Kontakt 引擎 (WASHES)，该引擎包含三个音色层——琴体 (Body)、沙砾 (Grit) 和空气 (Air)，每个层都有其特定的功能和声音特性。

琴体层琴体层包含核心吉他采样，采用不同的拾音器位置（琴颈、中音、琴桥）和演奏风格（泛音、直音、弯音）。这些采样经过循环/叠加，创造出释放时间几乎无限的”膨胀”音色。它还包含一些”预处理”采样，这些膨胀音色是在 Kemper Profiling 音箱上使用自定义延迟和混响设置录制的。采样的起始时间、启动时间和释放时间均可高度自定义，从短促、干涩的自然拨弦音色，到类似风琴的刺音（没有吉他拨弦的初始启动时间），再到突然结束的十秒上升音，再到经典的慢启动和慢释放的铺底音色，应有尽有。

沙砾层沙砾层用于添加失真、不和谐、刺耳或弓弦的音色。它既可以在混音中低频加入，增添一丝暗沉和质感，也可以作为突出元素。

空气层空气层包含几种不同的流动空气（家用吸尘器、吹过爱尔兰低音笛的空气），带来一些高频/类似呼吸的嘶嘶声。添加此层可以产生类似风琴的声音（例如哈蒙德或沃利策电钢琴）以及合唱的音色。

变形所有三个层级都可以通过应用多个目标声音（通常是其他层级的声音组合）进行变形。变形效果的方向、速度和强度均可控制，从而最大限度地提升声音塑形能力。

此外，还有精细的效果器控制以及默认映射到调制轮的”EDGE”控制，用于增加饱和度和频谱塑形，从而带来更浑厚的声音和临场感。

由此产生的音色库以其独特的广度独树一帜，同时又保留了原始声源的精髓。无论您是想寻找冰冷纤细的尾音、温暖闪亮的和声铺底，还是尖锐刺耳的无调性质感，BARITONE GUITAR WASHES 都能满足您的需求。

INTRODUCTIONBARITONE GUITAR WASHES is a versatile Kontakt instrument based on sampled recordings of a custom-made hand-built baritone electric guitar with an aluminium neck by NUDE Guitars (see pictures below). The deep resonance and incredible sustain of the instrument make it perfectly suited to designing long pads and other ambient sounds.

BARITONE GUITAR WASHES is based on our proprietary Kontakt engine (WASHES) that incorporates three layers of sound – Body, Grit and Air, each with a specific function and sound characteristics.

BODY LAYERThe Body layer contains the core guitar samples, in various pickup positions (Neck, Mid, Bridge) and playing styles (Harmonics, Straight, Ebow). These samples are looped/layered to create “swells” with close to infinite release times. It also includes several instances of “pre-washed” samples, swell sounds that were recorded using custom delay and reverb settings on a Kemper Profiling Amp. Sample start times, attack and release are highly customizable, allowing for anything from short, dry naturalistic pluck sounds as well as organ-like stab sounds (without the initial attack of the guitar pluck) via 10s risers that end abruptly to classic slow-attack and slow-release pad sounds.

GRIT LAYERThe Grit layer serves to add a distorted, dissonant, scratchy or bowed flavour. This can either be dialed in low in the mix for a sprinkling of darkness and texture, or dialed up to be a featured element.

AIR LAYERThe Air layer contains a few different instances of moving air (a household hoover, air blown across an Irish Low Flute) for some high-frequency/breath-like sizzle. This layer can be added to produce organ-type sounds (think Hammond or Wurlitzer) and hints of choir.

MORPHINGAll three layers can be morphed by applying several target sounds (usually combinations of sounds from other layers). There are controls for direction, speed and strength of this morphing effect, allowing for maximum soundshaping capabilities.

There are also detailed FX controls as well as an “EDGE” control mapped to the mod wheel by default for some added saturation and spectral shaping to bring out extra dirt and presence.

The resulting palette of possible sounds is unique in its breadth, whilst still retaining the DNA of the original sound sources. Whether you’re looking for icy, thin trails, warm, sparkly harmony pads, or edgy, scratchy atonal textures, BARITONE GUITAR WASHES is guaranteed to have something for you.
