Curated control
The electric guitar is a nuanced instrument, to put it lightly, and Native Instruments has outfitted Session Guitarist Electric Mint with a robust control set. Perform with fingers or a plectrum and play with different techniques and articulations, including muted, open, slides, hammer-ons, pull-offs, legato, harmonics, tremolo-bar expression, and more. You can add your desired amount of fret noise and vibrato and adjust the Humanize and Swing controls to dial in your composition. For even more customization, explore a wide range of iconic amps, cabs, and studio-grade effects, including delays, convolution reverbs, modulation effects, Supercharger GT compression, and EQ, plus condenser, dynamic, and ribbon microphone setups to bring your guitar sound to life.
