Each model offers 14 articulations for maximum expressiveness. And when it comes to amps, this library has no shortage of options: 14 clean amps, 4 crunch amps, and a direct signal option.

Control your music

Modus & Forma: Ambient Electric includes multi-velocity and circular repeats of all frets on all strings, as well as the ability to use a capo to select the ideal playing position. You can do this manually using the key switches or let the instrument automatically select the optimal position.

Authentic Arpeggios

Modus & Forma: Ambient Electric also offers two arpeggio modes: a simple mode with 30 presets and an advanced mode that allows you to create fingerstyle patterns, import and export presets, and use randomization. In both modes, play a chord with your left hand and activate the arpeggio via the key switch. The library will recognize the chord and convert it to the most suitable fingering depending on the selected fret position.

Realize your

Modus & Forma strumming ideas: Ambient Electric features a strumming engine with chord recognition to create realistic guitar progressions. The library comes with hundreds of chord shapes and fingerings, but you can add your own and save them to your projects using the chord import/export feature.

Arpeggiate

If all that wasn’t enough, you’ll also find an arpeggiator that preserves hammer-ons and pull-offs when changing fret positions.

Randomize

You can randomize each page individually – be it guitar type and settings, amps or effects, step effects or layers. On the randomize page, you can also create entirely new sounds by setting randomization rules. Or let the engine create new sounds by choosing Basic, Medium or Extreme modes – from crystal clear to intensely processed, cinematic evolving sounds and everything in between.

Mix

Finally, for comprehensive control over all parameters, the instrument has an integrated mixer panel, providing instant access to volume, panning, and basic effects settings for each audio layer.
