Rippling and Dreamy

ChineeGuZheng Classic has an extensive sampleset which contains various types of tremolo, slide, glissando, and strumming. It is the predecessor of the brand new ChineeGuZheng II.

ChineeGuZheng Classic is now freeware. It's the complete version with all the samplesets from the previously commercial version.

One unique feature that sets ChineeGuZheng Classic apart from other GuZheng libraries out there, is that it was performed using GuQin's techniques. This subtle yet distinctive difference makes ChineeGuZheng Classic a collector's item to any GuZheng/GuQin lovers!

Praises for the original ChineeGuZheng Classic*:

"Der Vorteil von Spezialisten-Plug-Ins gegenuber uppigen Ethno-Playern liegt in der groseren Ausdrucksstarke. Steht man vor der Aufgabe, ein authentisches Fernost-Feeling zu erzeugen, sei es fur einen New-Age-Track,eine Szenenuntermalung oder eine TV-Dokumentation, so ist man mit den Kong-Audio-PlugIns gut gerustet." - KEYS, September 2006

"pros:
‧ Authentic Chinese instruments played by talented Chinese performers.
‧ Superb playability with real-time switching between up to four sample sets in real time.
‧ Incredible value for money! " - SOS

*The difference between ChineeGuZheng Classic and ChineeGuZheng II: ChineeGuZheng II is a brand-new recording of a 21-string GuZheng. ChineeGuZheng II is much more expressive in every way compared to its predecessor. But ChineeGuZheng Classic has its own special sound as well as a special playing style. Having both will greatly increase your freedom of expression.
