This is not your typical acoustic guitar library. The RCD Acoustic concept was developed from the experimental, rhythmic playing styles commonly associated with modern film scores, and includes highly realistic “re-sourced” recordings.
Additional Information
Featuring a vintage Martin acoustic guitar, we used many different bows, sticks, brushes, and picks (with both traditional and low tuning) to capture a massive collection of tonal and atonal sounds.
Reps
The reps patches were sampled from true repetition-based performances and include up to 10 round Robin. This unique sampling technique includes all of the sonic information pre-transient and between consecutive notes which results in a more fluid, energetic playback.
Riffs
The riffs patches include energetic phrases and loops which were sampled across the range of the guitar. They sync to the host tempo by default and can be switched to half or double time within the user interface. In conjunction with the reps, you can create highly realistic rhythmic beds.
Sustains
In addition to the rhythmic-based recordings, we also captured a large collection of sustains using bowing techniques and picked tremolos. These can be particularly useful for creating textural ambiance, pads, and soundscapes.
Sculpt your sound.
We included over 30 fully produced multis or ‘presets’ made up of arps, pads, cue starters, loops, and fx.
The user interface features advanced sound-shaping controls, built-in humanization, and a powerful sequencer with dynamic modulation to control the step velocity in real time via midi CC or modwheel.

Kontakt 5 Full
This product requires Kontakt 5.8 Full or above. The instruments need to be loaded in manually or by using Kontakt’s quick-load feature. It will not appear in the libraries tab. Kontakt Full can be purchased at nativeinstruments.com/kontakt.
CPU / HD
RCD Acoustic requires 20GB of HD space to install. We recommend storing your samples on a fast SSD for optimal performance. While this product will run on a relatively low amount of ram, we suggest a minimum of 6gb.
