Discover SuperRiff Guitar
SuperRiff Guitar is not just another guitar plugin. It’s a virtual instrument focused on recreating the character of a distortion guitar using carefully recorded samples. Designed with a passion for detail, it offers musicians and producers a ready-made solution for adding aggressive and expressive guitar parts to their tracks, whether rock, metal, blues, or other genres where overdriven guitar sound reigns.
The Heart of the Plugin: Samples That Come Alive
The foundation of SuperRiff Guitar is its sample library. Each note was recorded with special attention to convey the nuances of playing an electric guitar with distortion. This guarantees a realistic and dynamic sound that easily integrates into your mix.
Unique Sound Library
Currently, SuperRiff Guitar contains one sound bank, covering the range from E1 to D5 on the keyboard. This range is ideal for creating both heavy riffs in the lower register and piercing solos in the upper register. Each note in this range has not one, but three different samples, which are played depending on the velocity of the key press. In total, the library contains 141 samples (47 notes x 3 types of samples), each of which adds its own unique facet to the plugin’s sound palette.
Dynamics in Your Hands: Three Types of Samples
A key feature that gives SuperRiff Guitar realism is the use of three different types of samples for each note, which switch depending on the value of the velocity MIDI message:
- Palm-muted single notes: These samples are ideal for creating dense, rhythmic parts. The characteristic palm muting gives the sound focus and aggression, which is an integral part of many rock and metal compositions. Use them for hard, syncopated riffs.
- Open string single notes: Open notes sound fuller and more resonant. They are great for melodic lines, chords, or power chords where a more open and sustained sustain is needed.
- Vibrated single notes: Vibrato samples add expression and “life” to the performance. They are indispensable for solo parts or long notes, where it is necessary to imitate the natural vibrato of a guitarist, making the sound more expressive and emotional.
By combining these three types of samples through the dynamics of your performance on a MIDI keyboard or by editing MIDI data, you can achieve extremely realistic and expressive guitar parts.
Perfect For…
SuperRiff Guitar will be a great tool for a wide range of musicians and producers:
- Composers and arrangers who want to quickly add distortion guitar to demo recordings or full tracks.
- Electronic music producers who want to add elements of rock or metal.
- Musicians looking for an easy-to-use but effective tool for practice or creating ideas.
- Anyone who appreciates the authentic sampled sound of an overdriven electric guitar.
