From Our Research Team:

An Epic Collection of Guitar Sounds!

Here's a collection that's dream-come-true for many modern composers and songwriters. Whether you're looking for the perfect instrumental texture for a dramatic moment in a film or just some original sounds to make your music pop out from the rest, Sample Logic's Cinematic Guitars has a whole collection of sounds that will fit the bill. From relatively straight-forward guitars to pad-like morphs and flat-out mutation, Cinematic Guitars contains a complete collage of sounds humanly (and in some case, inhumanly) possible to make with a guitar. To get these results, Sample Logic called in composer/guitarist Steve Ouimette to play, manipulate, and abuse the better part of 1,000 instruments in this library. The result: one fantastic collection of guitar sounds. You can load Cinematic in Native Instruments's Kontakt, or use the included Kontakt player, so even if you don't own Kontakt yet, you're all set.

  • Includes over 1,000 instruments and multis (combination instruments) recorded and processed at 24-bit/44.1k

  • Over 125 score-ready multis

Cinematic Guitars Truly Impressive my Favorite!

by Alfred John from Florida

Music Background: Recording Artist, and Film Composer
Cinematic Guitars.. Probably one of my favorite plug-ins!
I have Omnisphere and Heavyocity there kind of in the same family; both are great software’s and you can do a lot with them. Cinematic... read more [+] Guitars is just well thought out and the sound banks are truly impressive. A couple of tips in using it…If you really want to build your own sound library you will need to have a full version of Kontakt.. (not the free Kontakt Player)
It will work on Kontakt Player but you will not be able to get under the hood and change any of the setting and design your own multi patches. The install was pretty easy and they give you two authorizations if you want it on another computer.
Another big plus and is just great customer service..the folks at Sample Logic answers there phone and if you have any questions or you have a snag with the install they’ll help you out. This is a company that truly cares about what they do and the people that invest in there products. One of my best purchases! close [-]

Excellent sound design inspired guitars

I'd highly recommend this library for composers specializing in film/tv/games work.

The many built-in effects allow for tweaking the sounds and creating new timbres. The sounds also load very quickly into the Kontakt sampler, making for efficient workflow.

Definitely a helpful library for adding some unique sounds to your arsenal! close [-]

Really wanted to love it.

by Michael "Blue" Erdmier from Morton, IL

Music Background: Indie Studio Owner, Producer, Electronic Musician
The audio samples of this are simply amazing, so I thought it was just what I needed to help with my move into sound design for film, tv and gaming.
What it is, is a collection of mostly "1-sho... read more [+]t" samples with some very interesting (and programmable) effects. There are very few "instruments" in this package that you can actually play musically, and those are samples that won't hold up to even far less expensive libraries of dedicated instruments. Most of the sounds in this library you simply hold down a root note and let the sampled loop do the "playing" for you.
For me, at least, this means that once you've used a sound, it's pretty much done and you won't want to use it again. Unless of course you're building repeating themes for television.
If all you're after is a melodic ambiance that you can let play itself in a given key, you may love this product. If you're looking for actual instruments that you can play yourself, you'll hate this.
This really should be a $99 library, given its extremely limited musical usefulness, but I guess we live and learn. Just an expensive lesson this time. close [-]
