Sonic Zest presents… The Ambient Cinematic String Theory Collection. This is truly one of those instances where something is better than the sum of its individual parts. We’ve been recording and releasing electric and acoustic guitar libraries for Kontakt for over 6 years. For the first time we have taken all of our guitar libraries and wrapped them together inside a beautiful and powerful effects engine housed inside of Kontakt.

“Turn a simple guitar pluck into something utterly unrecognisable. The application of delay and filtering, and the intelligent editing of its ADSR envelope, have transformed it into a smooth, gentle, vocal-like pad.



This is a well priced, nicely programmed product that sound designers will be able to put to good use very frequently.” – Sound on Sound magazine

About the sound design

In addition to clean and dry sounds, we’ve packed in a host of sound design patches for you to use. From deep, wobbly basses to heavenly, airy pads – there’s something here for everyone.

Our particular favourites are the multis, where we are brought together various pads and leads to create a complete soundscape under your fingertips. We’re quite proud of two mod-wheel multis we’ve developed. One allows you to transition from an electric guitar being plucked to being muted by just moving the mod-wheel. The other allows you to use the mod-wheel to move from an acoustic guitar being plucked to the octave harmonics being plucked. Great stuff!

You can still buy them separately…
