在吉他领域,“精品”(boutique)一词意味着对细节的极致关注,这种关注体现在限量生产的吉他上,使得其品质远超大规模生产的乐器。本次录制的精品原声吉他,由传奇制琴师达纳·布尔茹瓦(Dana Bourgeois)亲手打造,《Evolution精品原声吉他(Evolution Boutique Acoustic)》将他的精湛工艺呈现在你的指尖。
迄今为止,我们推出的大多数虚拟吉他都是用拨片弹奏的。而《Evolution精品原声吉他》则专注于指弹演奏方式。当手指直接接触琴弦时,会产生各种微妙的细节。轻柔弹奏时,你可以听到所有细腻而丰富的泛音;而用力弹奏时,则会激发出明亮而富有活力的音色。
正如那句老话所说:“音色在指尖。”我们对此深信不疑,而这个项目正是与资深吉他手迈克尔·道德尔(Michael Dowdle)合作的绝佳机会。迈克尔·道德尔拥有数十年作为表演和录音吉他手的经验,他的演奏在每一个音符中都清晰可闻。迈克尔·道德尔曾与玛丽·奥斯蒙德(Marie Osmond)、奥斯蒙德兄弟(The Osmond Brothers)、布莱恩·威尔逊(Brian Wilson,海滩男孩乐队成员)、约翰·施奈德(John Schneider)、大卫·阿楚雷塔(David Archuleta)、喷气机乐队(The Jets)等众多艺人合作录制音乐并同台演出。
这把吉他的采样是在犹他州最负盛名的录音室之一——玫瑰木录音公司(Rosewood Recording Company)完成的。该录音室的所有者兼录音工程师盖伊·兰德尔(Guy Randle)运用模拟设备,巧妙地塑造并突出了这把吉他丰富的音色特质。《Evolution精品原声吉他》既包含了原始录音信号,也提供了经过增强的信号,你可以根据自己的喜好进行混合。

In the guitar world, the word boutique suggests an attention to detail that exists in limited production runs of guitars, resulting in a level of quality that’s rare to see in mass produced instruments. Recorded using an acoustic steel string guitar built by legendary luthier Dana Bourgeois, Evolution Boutique Acoustic puts the fruit of his craftsmanship at your fingertips.
Until now, the majority of our virtual guitars are played with a pick. With Evolution Boutique Acoustic, we opted instead to focus exclusively on a fingerstyle playing approach. There are all sorts of little details that happen when your fingers are in direct contact with the strings. When playing softly, you can hear all the delicate, rich harmonics, while louder dynamics evoke a vibrant, sparkling tone.
As the time-honored adage goes, tone is in the fingers. We are firm believers in this, and the project was the perfect occasion to work with seasoned guitarist Michael Dowdle. His decades of experience as a performing and session guitarist is audible in every note. Michael Dowdle has recorded and shared the stage with artists such as Marie Osmond, The Osmond Brothers, Brian Wilson (Beach Boys), John Schneider, David Archuleta, The Jets, and many others.
The instrument was sampled at Rosewood Recording Company, one of Utah’s most venerable recording studios. Guy Randle, the owner and recording engineer at Rosewood Recording Company, incorporated analog gear to skillfully sculpt and emphasize the rich tonal qualities of the guitar. Evolution Boutique Acoustic includes both the as-recorded signal as well as an enhanced signal that can be blended to your taste.
The instrument is hosted by our Evolution engine, which provides you with a wealth of appointments: a comprehensive collection of effects, built-in strumming patterns, and a generous amount of settings to tailor the instrument to your performance needs.
Key Features

– Pattern editor and chord voicing system for authentic strumming and fingerpicking patterns.
