Orange Tree Samples – Evolution Songwriter 1.3.0 Full + Update WIN MAC
We are pleased to present Evolution Songwriter – a faithful replica of the legendary Gibson J-45, an acoustic steel-string guitar that can be heard on countless singer-songwriter albums of the past decades.
This instrument draws inspiration from a wide range of artists, including The Beatles, Joni Mitchell, and the more modern acoustic sounds of Iron & Wine and The Dirty Projectors.
When designing this guitar, we aimed to create an instrument with a diverse tonal palette, from the iconic sounds of the 60s and 70s onward, while providing a wealth of excellent, ready-to-use presets for songwriters and producers.
The library was developed in collaboration with William Dergantz, who not only sampled the acoustic guitar but also contributed factory presets, strumming patterns, and custom chord variations to the library.
The sample set was also run through a popular type of multitrack tape recorder as an additional signal. The tape signal adds richness to the guitar’s sound, and we decided to preserve the pitch fluctuations and other artifacts that give tape its distinctive character. When selecting a signal from the tape, you will notice a constant background noise – its volume is adjustable and can always be turned off completely.
