The instruments included are:
4 string Bouzouki
Baglama
Tzoura
3 String Bouzouki
Features:
> Advanced script programming
> Keyswitches
> Control over which string is being used by using the modulation wheel
> Polyphonic or Monophonic modes with Hammer On and Pull Off
> Automatic plectrum up & down triggered by script in time
> Reverb, Delay, Compressor
> Interface showing what is triggered and played
> Virtual Bouzouki 10 velocity layers (5 plectrum down and 5 plectrum up)
> Rebetiko Instruments 6 velocity layers (3 plectrum down and 3 plectrum up)
Virtual Bouzouki also includes:
> Chords that activates when you play a minor or major triad with automatic
> Single tremolo that changes speed with the modulation wheel

Bouzouki 8-String Acoustic Details
Bouzouki 8-string Acoustic is a Greek bouzouki sample library for Kontakt which captures the unique sound of the bouzouki and simulates a realistic playing technique.
The library is comprised of 1500+ 24-bit samples and a single Kontakt instrument patch. Note on and release samples were recorded chromatically, at soft, medium and hard velocities, down and up strokes, hammer-on, pull-off, slide and tremolo articulations. There are also multiple takes for customary major, minor and diminished chords and multiple noise samples including body resonance, fret and pick noises.
Extensive scripting has gone into the patch. This script simulates real playing by processing the velocity, speed and legato of the played notes and applying a number of rules that affect the final sound, e.g. appropriately positioning the notes on the correct fret and course, muting strings where needed, micro-tuning and fading sample attacks, and more. Additionally, there are 12 key switches that allow full manual control of course/fret positioning and articulation.
Here’s a demo of Bouzouki 8-String Acoustic in action:
[vimeo]http://www.vimeo.com/40305353[/vimeo]Features:
- 1547 24-bit/44.1-kHz, full-length samples (no loops other than tremolo articulation).
- Chromatically sampled; all 27 fret positions, all 4 courses.
- Soft, medium, hard velocity levels for each note.
- Alternating down/up strokes for each velocity level.
- Sustained, Hammer-On, Pull-Off, Tremolo and Slide articulations, all chromatically sampled.
- 1, 2 and 3 semitone Hammer-On and Pull-Off samples per note.
- Sampled major, minor and diminished chords, with all customary inversions.
- Realistic playing noises layered at adjustable levels.
- Automatic or manual control of course/fret positioning, articulation and up/down stroke.
- Adjustable thresholds for fast/slow auto-positioning, fast/slow picking, forced down-stroke.
- Mono/Poly voice modes, for solo or polyphonic playing (4-voice max, one per course).
- Real-time fretboard display of the note position/articulation for precise control.
- Pitch-bend wheel triggered slides.
- Velocity controlled slide duration.
- Basic effects suite (EQ, Compressor, Reverb, Limiter) in user interface.
Bouzouki 8-string Acoustic is available now as a download for 49 EUR.
