Digital Acoustic by TED: Authentic Nylon Guitar in Your DAW
Looking for the warm, soulful sound of a nylon-string acoustic guitar without the need to record a live instrument? The Digital Acoustic plugin from developer TED offers just that – a modeled acoustic guitar ready to integrate into your music production.
This instrument is not just a set of samples. It uses the unique Karplus-Strong principle to model the physical characteristics of strings, allowing for a live, dynamic, and extremely realistic sound. Each note is reproduced with attention to detail, imitating the resonance and vibration of real nylon strings.
Key Features and Capabilities
Digital Acoustic is designed with the needs of modern musicians and producers in mind who want to add an authentic guitar element to their tracks. The plugin offers a number of features that expand creative possibilities:
- Karplus-Strong based modeling: This synthesis method allows you to get a unique, organic sound that differs from traditional sampler instruments. It creates the illusion of string vibration and decay, adding realism.
- Expressive Vibrato: Thanks to Aftertouch and ModWheel support, you can easily add expressive vibrato to the played notes. This allows you to “animate” the performance, imitating the technique of a live guitarist.
- Flexible Tone Controls: The plugin is equipped with various timbre controls, allowing you to precisely adjust the sound to your mix. You can shape the tone from soft and rounded to brighter and more percussive, adapting the guitar to different musical styles and genres.
- Ease of Use: An intuitive interface makes Digital Acoustic accessible even for beginners, allowing you to quickly get started and focus on creativity.
Perfect for…
Digital Acoustic will be a great addition to a wide range of musical projects. Its authentic nylon string sound will fit perfectly into:
- Latin American music
- Flamenco
- Bossa Nova
- Acoustic ballads

- Film scores
- And any other genres where a quality classical guitar sound is needed.
Thanks to its flexibility and realism, the plugin allows you to create both tender chordal parts and complex melodic lines with expressive vibrato.
