Textured Guitars uses an array of effects and signal processing combinations such as cascading delays, pulsing filters and rhythmic gates and combines them with vintage and modern amp sounds and a variety of electric guitars and playing styles. The result is a collection of loops that evolve, percolate and shift across the audio landscape.
Equally unique is the overall flexibility of the library. As part Nine Volt Audio’s BPM Flex Series™, any of the REX2 based loops (supported by most major sequences and used by Stylus RMX and Reason) will retain their sound and groove at virtually any tempo without artificial stretching or audio artifacts!
Versatile, useful and musical, Textured Guitars sweeps from deep and wide to up-front and focused and offers a broad selection of six-string moods.
REVIEW
"...It has to be said that the end result oozes class. The effects are lush, and create some fabulous sonic images. However, they're never overdone, which is important in a library such as this, and the playing, and playing variation within each suite, is ideal for creating a bed upon which to build a song idea. What's more, there's plenty of inspirational material to do exactly that. Rating 5/5" - Sound on Sound Magazine
"...What's most fascinating, however, is how stunning and diverse the results have turned out. And, as part of the BPM Flex Series, the formats contained on this disc enable all the samples to be stretched far beyond their original boundaries. So this is a must-have release for both lovers of rich sonic textures and far-out guitar tones. Rating: 9/10" - Computer Music Magazine
