We are excited to release Preparato Guitar, the third chapter of the Preparato Series.
Preparato Guitar contains 32 unique preparations recorded with 3 different guitars (nylon, acoustic, electric).
PREPARATO is not just an inspiring library; thanks to the new version of the “Acoustic Modular Engine”, PREPARATO allows you to have a great control over the acoustic source, with endless possibilities of combinations.
The use of both acoustic sampling and creative layering brings to PREPARATO the feel and power of a real synth, designed to meet the endless intricacies of a musician’s mind.

THE RECORDING
We recorded the guitars in the Rocchi Studios using only top-end gear.
Acoustic Guitars: for the close microphone position, we used a U87 mic as a main mic, a pair of classic small-cardioid XY for catching the stereo-field, plus a ribbon closer to the hole, to get the deep frequencies smoothly. Room is a mix made by us between a decca and other microphones close and further the guitar.
For the electric guitars, we recorded a Stratocaster used a pair of vintage and modern amplifiers, plus known pedal effects recorded in stereo.
All the microphones were routed through Neve and hancrafted Argentini Preamps
THE PROJECT
The PREPARATO Series was born with one goal: to inspire musicians with new sounds and organic textures.
The Preparato Guitar journey starts in 2022, after the release of our Preparato Double Bass. In May, 2022 we recorded the guitar in Rocchi Studios for one week, testing all the articulation possibilities. (no guitar were destroyed!)
The editing and design process of the new AcMo Engine took 1 year. The engine was renewed with better performances and flexibility.
This is why we are really excited to release to the world this new instrument!
