Folk Fiddle 2 is our flagship roots violin library. With a plethora of articulations on offer, and our hyper-powerful overlay threshold functionality, both bringing a playability and fluidity unmatched in its arena. With true legato, and a series of scale-adaptive nuanced turns and grace notes that blend effortlessly into one another to craft beautiful folk inspired melodies.
FREE with every copy of the Folk Fiddle 2 comes THE SHAMAN’S DRUM. A deceivingly complex frame drum texturally, build to be straight forward to use, with a simple ‘beater position’ control that allows you to
move, in real time, between different striking positions.
Important Note: Folk Fiddle 2 requires the FULL version of Kontakt 5/6/7 or above. Do not purchase this if you only have Kontakt Player.
