The SAE Ukulele and Mandolin Bundle

The Mandolin from Sounds And Effects,’ Sounds And Effects brings the same attention to detail, the audio fidelity and responsiveness of ‘Pure Acoustic Guitars’ to the mandolin. And, the Sounds And Effects Ukulele ReFill, contains multi-velocity samples of two ukuleles, a picked tenor uke, a concerto ukulele played fingerstyle, as well as chords.

The Mandolin from Sounds And Effects contains 1630 samples at 24/44.1. The new instrument includes the following articulations:

• Picked - four velocity layers
• Fingerstyle - Two different styles, five velocity layers each, round robin switches between the two styles and between finger style and picked
• Muted notes - Soft and hard
• Strums - two speeds, hard and soft, also low octave strums
• Tremelo - three speeds
• Plucked
• Fret noises and chops - in each preset and mapped below the mandolins low range

Presets allow for key switches from pretty much any articulation to another, for instance fingerstyle to picked notes, pick to pluck, mute to pick, picked to fast or slow strum, picked or fingerstyle to tremolo, and so on

The Ukulele consists of 1181 multi-velocity samples of two different ukuleles, a picked tenor uke, and a fingerstyle concerto. Single notes and chunks (velocity switched) and fret noises, as well as chords. Chunking is very important to get that choppy ukulele sound. Fret noises are mapped below the Ukulele range.

Includes

• Solo notes set up both so that each (keyboard) octave plays one of the four strings and the player can easily choose any string, and in contiguous fashion (no overlaps).
• Up to 6 samples per note from very soft to chunks (thumb mutes) — or no chunk.
• Each Individual String played up to (at least) the 15th fret
• Fret and incidental noises, mapped below the Ukulele’s range.

Chords:

Maj <> Min <> 7th <> Maj 7 <> Min 7 <> Dim <> 9th <> Aug

Chords are mapped from C to B, and velocity switched- Down> Up> Chord Chunk
