Bolder Sounds have updated their excellent Bluegrass Banjo Kontakt library to version 3 with upgrade paths for existing users.
Details
here
In this library you will find a 5 string banjo which has the classic warm tone associated with pre-war banjos as well as an instrument with plenty of punch to cut through a mix. Even though this library is called a Bluegrass sample library, you will find it to be quite flexible across many different musical genres.
This library is extremely popular among Bolder Sounds users. We felt by adding new sampled articulations we could make it an even more effective library.
The new samples include for new pluck positions along the string length of the banjo as well as Scruggs-Keith tuner mechanism samples. A complete list of new features in version 3 is outlined below in this manual.
If you already own the Bluegrass Banjo library maybe you are wondering -"did I ever get version 2 of the Bluegrass Banjo?" Yes- you did. It was updated to version 2 very shortly after its initial release.
As is the norm these days there is an intro offer (-25%), but I think the update is more exciting than the offer so I am posting in software
