The interface allows you to humanize the performance using real-time controls:
The first guitar is a coveted 1934 Martin 0-17, a small-bodied all-mahogany 6-string. Unlike the larger, brighter Martin D-35 used in the original library, this guitar has a much smaller body, lending it a warm, mellow, and incredibly focused tone. Its mahogany construction gives it a rich, woody character that is both rustic and supremely balanced. The developers describe its sound as having a "raw" vintage quality, reminiscent of classic records, which makes it perfect for laying down intimate singer-songwriter parts, fingerpicked passages, or adding a touch of old-world charm to any track. Despite its gentler nature, it can still deliver surprising punch and authority when played more aggressively, offering a wide dynamic range that feels wonderfully organic.

The track had heavy 808s, synth pads, and vocals. SA2’s "Studio Tight" preset excelled here. The high-pass filter built into the interface allowed us to cut everything below 120Hz, leaving only the "shimmer" of the strums. The low latency allowed for real-time finger drumming of chords.
