Impact Soundworks Shreddage 3 Archtop Guitar - Virtual Instrument, Download

For the modern musician seeking a stylish and innovative solution to music creation, the Shreddage 3 Archtop Guitar - Virtual Instrument is a game-changer. This sleek, downloadable virtual instrument, compatible with both Mac and PC/Windows operating systems, offers the versatility of a hollowbody 6-string electric guitar, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of music genres, including jazz, blues, R&B, funk, and pop.

This elegant virtual instrument is the upgraded version of the popular Archtop: Hollowbody Electric Guitar, now powered by the state-of-the-art S3 Engine. This enhancement not only improves performance playback, strumming, and articulation mapping but also introduces new samples for a richer sound experience.

The Shreddage 3 Archtop Guitar is based on the six-string Sadowsky Jim Hall model with dual pickups, a favorite among composers, producers, and bands for its smooth tone and playability. The instrument was performed by master session musician Josh Workman, ensuring every note is detailed and nuanced.

Recorded DI through a true analog signal chain, each sample offers maximum warmth, making this guitar equally suitable for both amped and clean contexts. While it can handle hi-gain styles, the Shreddage 3 Archtop Guitar truly shines with cleaner tones, making it perfect for genres like jazz, fusion, pop, alt rock, blues, funk, and R&B.

The S3 engine also includes the Console FX rack and mixer, allowing you to process and amp the instrument without the need for external plugins. Choose from dozens of included presets and start creating music instantly.

The Shreddage 3 Archtop Guitar features Total Articulation Control Technology 2.0 (TACT), offering more ways to tweak and play these articulations than ever before. From dynamic layer and mute level adjustments to per-articulation velocity to volume and Strum Mode, this virtual instrument offers unparalleled control.

The Console: Modular FX Rack and Mixer is a new addition, providing full control over your virtual guitar tone. With 30 effects modules to choose from, including multiple EQs, compressors, spatial FX, modulation FX, amps, distortion pedals, reverbs, and a selection of over 30 custom cabinet IRs, you can easily customize your sound.

The Shreddage 3 Archtop Guitar - Virtual Instrument is not just a product; it's the next generation of virtual guitar instruments, designed to bring your music to life.
