Session Guitarist Picked Acoustic (henceforth referred to as PA) takes a similar approach, this time focusing primarily on a finger-picking playing style. Strummed Acoustic 2 followed, featuring two guitars: a small-bodied Martin O-17 mahogany six-string, and a Guild F‑412 12-string, each with their own 'suites' of song styles and patterns. The original Strummed Acoustic was reviewed in SOS January 2016 issue.

The key benefits of the concept are quick and easy arranging of guitar parts, with consistency of sound and performance, the latter often being time-consuming to master on virtual guitar instruments that require manual input of the strumming movements. Additional touches such as doubling, string squeaks, fret noises, body slaps, endings, low and high voicings and effects bring further realism. Up to eight patterns can be mixed and matched from any of the styles to create custom 'songs' and triggered by keyswitches. Chords played on a MIDI keyboard are converted to guitaristic voicings and tempo-sync'ed to the host DAW. Featuring a sampled vintage Martin D‑35, its patterns are derived from real-life performances, accurately transcribed into MIDI data.

Winding the clock back to 2015, Daniel Scholz and Samuel Dalferth teamed up with Native Instruments to release Session Guitarist Strummed Acoustic, a Kontakt instrument comprising a collection of strummed guitar performances played in different styles, with various patterns provided for each style. For those unfamiliar with the range, let's begin with a quick recap.

Picked Acoustic is the latest in NI's Session Guitarist series of virtual guitar instruments. Is Native Instruments' virtual picked acoustic guitar better than the real thing? The Picked Acoustic instrument has eight pattern slots, into which complete Song suites in specific styles can be loaded along with an associated Sound Preset, or a mixture of patterns from different Songs, as shown here.
