"...[T]he results you can get from BOTH the Lead and Rhythm library are realistic enough to convince most every listener...[O]ne of the most convincing and configurable electric guitar libraries available...Evolution Electric Guitar: Strawberry is a tremendous value in the world of guitar samples, and will likely find its way to the top of many buying lists." - ProRec Review of Evolution Electric Guitar - Strawberry (9 out of 10 rating)

"This is it! Finally a guitar I can play that doesn't hurt my fingers. Seriously this is the best Guitar sample set I've ever come across- Just bought it and I'm BLOWN AWAY" - James Venable (Zack and Miri, Clerks II, Scary Movie 3/4, Samurai Jack)

""[Evolution Electric Guitar - Strawberry] is the single greatest piece of software I have ever come across! I mean, it's pretty much a life changer...I can't believe the price on this thing, because the programming and scripting for this is the most creative use of sampling I have seen, and it's worth everything I paid for EWSO!...Not only is using [Evolution Electric Guitar - Strawberry] inspiring, but the first few tunes I've whipped up are pretty much finished quality.  There is no need to re-record the guitar!  It's done!....I have tried to use about 10 different guitar-sampling programs over the last few years to try to help make that mock-up stage inspiring for me and the band, but all of the programs have stunk and are strictly for mock-ups ONLY...The way you have it set-up is unbelievably creative and technically spot-on, and the sampling itself, from the guitar you used to the articulations, is a work of art - there is no other software like it! I almost feel like you did this specifically for me, because it's going to change the scope of what I can deliver to TV clients without having to round up the band, or at least the guitar player, and that means more money for my business.  For that reason, I think you're charging way too little." - Hop Litzwire, Four Time Emmy Winning Television Producer/Composer

"Evolution Guitar is by far one of the most incredible virtual instruments I've ever used. The sound you get from it is very authentic and very clean. It's an advanced yet very easy to use instrument and I will most definitely be using it for any up and coming rock driven projects I'm involved with." - Young Cee, Royce Music Group (producer for Scarface, 50 Cent, Kill the Alarm)

Evolution™ Electric Guitar - Strawberry enables keyboardists to easily and quickly create authentic sounding electric guitar parts without the need to hand edit MIDI. Unlike conventional high-end KONTAKT guitar sample libraries and guitar VSTs, Evolution Electric Guitar doesn't require keyboardists to possess a foundational understanding of how to play the guitar in order to achieve authentic results. Instead, it leverages your existing keyboard skills, translating these techniques for the guitar, much like a skilled language interpretor translates one language into another. For example, chord inversions are automatically analyzed and the appropriate guitar chord voicing is instantly determined. Strummed guitar chord options are only limited by your imagination -- whether it's power chords, triads, augmented chords, diminished chords, suspended fourths, 7ths, 9ths, 11ths, "Hendrix chords" -- it's all possible.

Evolution Electric Guitar utilizes sophisticated scripting instead of requiring you to memorize dozens of keyswitches and contains extensive articulations, from palm mutes to trills to pinch harmonics, accurately simulating a real life guitar performance. It features the detail and nuances that bring a guitar performance to life. Its proprietary string resonation engine creates a sense of organic realism unparalleled by other guitar sample libraries or VSTs. Even more, Evolution Electric Guitar, doesn't require you to compromise your playing or sequencing workflow in order to adapt to its way of working -- instead, it uses Orange Tree Samples' revolutionary Mind Control™ technology to adapt to the way you like to work. Sample library mapping is quickly and easily customized to your personal preference.

Evolution Electric Guitar consists of two key components: a rhythm guitar engine -- which includes Orange Tree Samples powerful and advanced, yet easy to use, chord strumming functionality -- and a lead guitar engine. The strumming engine automates the time consuming task of sequencing realistic rhythm guitar parts, including an intelligent chord detection engine, which instantly translates chords on the keyboard into guitar voicings on the fretboard. Popular studio techniques like double tracking are performed with the touch of a button. Want to detune or capo the guitar? It's all easily done, and switching to alternate tunings not only affect the range of the instrument, but change the tone of the individual strings. To provide the greatest versatility, Evolution Electric Guitar was recorded dry so that users can choose their favorite select amp simulation and effects to attain just the right sound, from pop to rock to funk to hip hop to jazz.
