What this is

A non-standard KONTAKT-library that takes on a different approach to Clavinets.  

The library offers a wide variety of samples, ranging from haunting drones to shimmering wildflies.

Many of the patches include an anarchy of sound-variations, allowing you to mix and match more expressive and dynamic performances.

The instrument sampled is like a massive guitar with 60 long guitar-strings. Which inherent many of the possibilities of an electric guitar.  Just that a keyboard with tapping mechanism usually stands in the way for more control over the strings.

Strings were set in motion with the use of external objects. Like bow-hairs, ebows, rotating small fan, electrical toothbrush, needles, scrapes, clinkers and feedback.

neve recording chain for the High-Quality Bass Sounds

Made with Hohner Clavinets D6 and E7 as the main instruments, through hardware effects and amps to create a layered and rich patches.

Deep and colourful sustained sounds qualities, through different and unusual treatments. Drawing inspirations from bowed guitars sounds and tricks

soundscapes for cinematic scoring

Humbucker pickups on long strings produce a rich sound that is perfect for making rich soundscapes.  Kinda like an “ambient guitar” but with a darker timbre.

“Gorgeous unconventional and creative string resonations” -F.J

“Sound like a guitar, but at the same time not. Patches come  alive and are intuitive to work with” -A.G

“By far some of the best textures I’ve ever heard. Unique, visceral and inspiring! Might just make it into every single track where there is anything textural going on!”   -L.S

“”As a huge fan of ambient guitar, Wrongtools has provided me with a one-of-a-kind, playable palette of pulses, pads, and soundscapes that sound truly unique—despite being made with clavinets, not guitars! I’ve used these sounds in everything from TV and film scores to song production, and I consistently find creative inspiration in everything Wrongtools creates!”” -M.H
