THE COMMODORE

Kontakt Library

  • $99.00

The Commodore takes you back in time to the classic sound of 1960s Detroit soul and Memphis R&B with a deep-sampled library of authentic rhythm guitar sounds for Native Instruments’ Kontakt.

This library of five highly-playable and inspiring patches features a vintage Fender Telecaster recorded direct through a restored Altec tube mixer achieving the unmistakable Motor City DI guitar tone. This timeless sound is equally at home in modern genres such as Pop, R&B, and Nu-Disco, as it is in vintage-inspired productions.

The content in this collection combines the ease and inspiration of loop-based production, with the flexibility and control of a full Kontakt library. The Commodore will have you whipping up authentic sounding soul and R&B in no time.
