SLIDE Acoustic

About

SLIDE Acoustic is a guitar plugin by Orange Tree Samples. It models an acoustic steel string guitar played with a slide, a sound commonly heard in blues and country/folk music. Its slide engine models slide articulations instead of relying on pre-recorded slide articulations. It includes effects such as tremolo, chorus, reverb, delay and amp modeling.

What it sounds like

The sampled guitar is tuned to open D, a tuning commonly used for slide guitar. The slide engine keeps the guitar's timbre correct when sliding between notes.
