| AAS releases the Strum GS‑2 Acoustic Guitar Plug-In | ||||||
Strum GS-2 reproduces the sound of acoustic guitars and also the playing techniques of a guitar player—making the production of guitar tracks in a DAW environment a straightforward endeavour. Strum GS-2 embeds an elaborate chord recognition and voicing module which automatically voices chords played on the keyboard as a guitar player would on the fretboard. Strumming and picking swings into action with an auto-strum function and special strumming keys. Elaborate rhythm figures available from a large collection of MIDI loops are on hand to supplement chord progressions. Strum GS-2 is a complete redesign of its predecessor. In addition to the synthesis and strumming engines which have been completely reviewed, Strum GS-2 ships with a new streamlined interface, a new equalizer and compressor module, a new multi-effect processor, brings native 64-bit operation on Mac OS X and Windows, and much more. Strum GS-2 also features an all-new factory library comprising an impressive number of nylon and steel acoustic guitars of various sizes, both in natural and production-ready configurations. “We have completely reviewed the modeling behind Strum—from the string to the body—and reconsidered how the different elements interact with each other; we have also re-examined how strumming is performed, now giving us a whole new level of realism, tone control, and expressivity,” said Marc-Pierre Verge, CEO of AAS. “With its extensive collection of guitars and the ability to tweak them as required, Strum GS-2 is an even more clever solution than ever for creating great-sounding acoustic guitar tracks. Playing guitar on a keyboard has never been easier!” Pricing and Availability Strum GS-2 is available now at a suggested retail price of US$199 but until April 28th, 2015, it is offered at the introductory price of $149. Upgrades are available for Strum Acoustic GS-1, Strum Electric GS-1, and Strum Acoustic Session users starting at $39. Strum GS-2 runs on both Mac OS X and Windows in 32- and 64-bit host sequencers supporting the VST, Audio Units, RTAS, and AAX Native plug-in formats.
