The creation of the Monzter guitars is done with the goal to give you a top of the line recorded “wall of guitar” sound ready to play from your keyboard the most intuitive way.
The Monzter Guitars SampleSet contains:
Two programs for each format, Gigastudio, HALion & Kontakt.
Fifths sampled both as long notes and staccatos. The long notes is un-looped and in 2 velocity layers for the notes and 2 velocity layers for the release notes.
The staccato samples are in 4 velocity layers. Every note from B1 to E3 has been sampled for both articulations. A separate program for scrapes & slides in different speeds and direction. A total of 192 stereo samples in 24bit format (HALion/Kontakt)

"Monzter delivers the best heavy guitar sound to date. It truly creates a well balanced and powerful "smash" that enriches the whole atmosphere of the song. Monzter guitars narrow the gap between real guitars and synthesizers, perfect for my metal synth project. Simply outstanding."

"Composing cinematic trailers and orchestral scores, I always wanted to improve my music with some really heavy guitar chords but nothing met my expectations. Monzter guitars make this wish come true. No recording, compressing or EQing required. Install it, play along and enjoy a really powerful guitar sound. It's so simple but impressive!"

I want more of this, please…"
