Spitfire Ambient Guitars [11 DVD]

Distorted Soundscapes for Cinematic Scoring

A collection of inspiring and modern cinematic guitar sounds, textures and loops — from ambient to apocalyptic — created and performed exclusively by renowned guitar innovator Leo Abrahams, and expertly sampled by Spitfire Audio. Designed for use in film, TV and game music and especially suited to dark, urbane, indie style scores, its early incarnation is already a directors’ and composers’ favourite. This intuitive and instantly playable toolkit will inspire any discerning media composer or producer looking for fresh sounds and atmospheric textures with an experimental edge.

DISTORTED SOUNDSCAPES

Ambient Guitars is a collaboration between Spitfire Audio and renowned composer, producer and guitarist Leo Abrahams. Featuring amazing new material recorded in 2019 and an amalgamation of two true Spitfire classics; Enigma 1 & 2, it is now presented in our hugely versatile, dedicated eDNA Engine UI (except our Evolutions & Distorted samples). We give you over 600 sounds, including over 10GB of brand new recordings and additional curated presets. We’ve also updated this to the free Kontakt Player format, with full NKS support. From atmospheric pad sounds to dark, heavy distorted guitars, this library gives you everything you could possibly want from a guitar for media composition.

In 2013, the Spitfire team decamped to London’s legendary Pool Studios (host to artists from Nick Cave to Depeche Mode, Arctic Monkeys to Foals) to capture Leo’s cutting edge techniques, created largely on a Trussart guitar, as well as a 1960s Gibson 355 and a Danelectro Hornet, plugged into a rare and enviable collection of pedals and amps. Discover over 400 presets — weird and wonderful sounding guitars, reverberant pads, dark, distorted plucks, warped pedal FX and synths. The ‘Distorted’ collection of sounds (formerly known as Enigma 2) comprises 18 tight and punchy distorted electric guitar instruments distinct in sound and character, through three amps and a variety of pedals. Add layers of distortion and feedback to create walls of sound or devastatingly haunting, dark, distorted beauty.
