Native Instruments Seesion Guitarist Electric Mint KONTAKT

ELECTRIC MINT captures the iconic sound of a world famous solid-body electric guitar – an American model from the 1960s sampled in great detail. Silky riffs and expressive grooves, powerful solos or bright funk lines: ELECTRIC MINT brings timeless sounds to the most original productions, with MIDI chord patterns and sequences for all styles, in a unique instrument with intuitive play.

A SOUND TRINITY

From rock ‘n’ roll to soul, from funk to R&B, from reggae to drill, and everything in between, ELECTRIC MINT’s guitar has placed the six-string at the heart of popular music. With its three combinable pickups and the resulting sonic flexibility, it has quickly established itself among the greatest guitarists of the past five decades.

MODEL YOUR SOUND

A powerful configuration in a compact instrument. Model your sound directly from the instrument, integrate the signal from a vintage dynamic mic, and send it to a collection of amps and new cabinet emulations. ELECTRIC MINT offers 71 presets: from pure and clear sounds to crunchy and high gain sounds. Make it simple or build impressive processing chains thanks to an extensive collection of studio-quality effects, including the new SUPERCHARGER GT compressor, the ‘Cry Wah’ effect emulating the typical wah-wah movements, or even convolution reverbs to hear your amp in different rooms.

DRAG AND DROP MIDI PATTERNS

Start your songwriting process with ease, using the Music Styles tabs in the Explorer, and click on a song preset to instantly preview its patterns and effects. Explore a selection of four-bar chord progressions for each pattern, and drag progressions, phrases, and voicings into your software sequencer to customize your guitar parts. ELECTRIC MINT also includes an improved playback engine, for even more realistic funk patterns.

TWO WAYS TO CREATE

The versatile sound of a studio guitarist, straight into your DAW. Get inspired by the included phrases, voicings and chord progressions, or work on your own voicings and phrases while keeping the original rhythm. With ELECTRIC MIND, you have patterns in many styles, associated with a large choice of playing techniques and articulations. Ideal for finding new song ideas, or for adding the perfect finishing touch.

REALISTIC RIFFS

A dedicated melodic instrument lets you play with fingers or a pick, while the engine generates realistic hammer ons, pull offs, slides, legatos. Modify the decay of muted notes, place accents on the beat or offbeat, inject swing and humanize the playing to suit your composition, and choose between whammy bar and finger vibrato to control the expressive pitch.
