Our new Shreddage Engine (V3) features a host of improvements, from improved UI to better picking and fret selection behavior, more advanced options, new presets, bug fixes, better double/quad tracking and much more. IMPORTANT! When updating, do not OVERWRITE folders. And while it excels at rock & metal playing (both lead and rhythm alike), it is also well-suited for many other genres thanks to its clean tone and huge range.NEWS: Shreddage 2 Engine V3.17 – Updates for S2 and S2IBZ – Available Now from Impact Soundworks It is a complete instrument with elegant scripting, intuitive mapping, and incredible depth. Shreddage II is our answer to the challenge of total guitar sampling. Other libraries have attempted this challenge, but through our own experiences and the words of our users, we discovered common problems: bloated memory and CPU usage, limited range, incomprehensible mapping and keyswitches, overly complex scripting, and a lack of attention to detail & realism. However, as useful as the original Shreddage was, our users overwhelmingly desired a true sequel: an instrument that would take the incredible realism of Shreddage and apply it to a comprehensive library capable of lead playing as well. We were content to focus strictly on rhythm playing, with the idea that perhaps other virtual instruments would service for lead playing. With that release, our goal was to create an easy-to-use set of DI rock & metal guitar sounds, pushing the envelope of realism and establishing a new standard for electric guitar samples. This virtual instrument was designed to be a true successor to our original Shreddage electric rhythm guitar library used by thousands of composers and producers all over the world. Welcome to Shreddage II: Absolute Electric Guitar.
