WEDGE FORCE Oolong acoustic guitar synth
Authentic acoustic guitar tone for your midi keyboard. The WEDGE FORCE Oolong is an innovative musical instrument plugin that offers the studio sound of recorded acoustic guitar in a very special way.
Use your keyboard to play realistic and expressive guitar parts. The acoustic guitar on the Oolong is synthesized (not sampled) allowing you to change your plucking position (in real-time) by moving the MOD wheel controller on your MIDI keyboard and giving you control over DI Studio-MIC, Ambient-MIC signals. This allows you to achieve the perfect tone for your song.
Unlike sampled guitar, the harmonic resonances of the guitar strings are different for every group of notes you play. The WEDGE FORCE Oolong plugin is built with proprietary “Synthetic Force Engine III”, extracting the timbre from studio sampled waveforms and then synthesizes each note in real time.
