“Renaissance & Folk Instruments XS” is a collection of 64 voices for Celtic, Baroque, Folk, American Appalachian, Bluegrass, and Old World ethnic music. Utilizing nearly 203MB of new samples, the voice library includes shimmering hammered dulcimers, mountain dulcimers, stringed harps, two beautiful Italian harpsichords (with several variations of each), a new full-bodied stereo nylon guitar, new fingerpicked steel guitar, and a new multi-layered stereo banjo.
Also present are solo stringed instruments (violin, viola, cello), strummed zithers, mandolins (plucked and double-picked), sitars, dobro, oud, bouzouki, kanoun, baglama, flutes and pipes, and an assortment of rhythm section instruments such as guitarron (large nylon bass guitar), washtub bass, jug, washboard, castanets, stomps and claps – even a joos harp and a hurdy-gurdy, complete with crank handle! Multiple configurations for many instruments are provided, including tunable drone strings for the sitars and oud, as well as instructions for converting certain instruments to alternate tunings.
