Ample China Pipa by Ample Sound Technology Co., Ltd. is a deeply sampled virtual instrument that brings the expressive sound of the traditional Chinese pipa into your DAW. Recorded from a high‑quality instrument and performed by an expert player, it captures everything from delicate single-note plucks to fiery tremolo rolls, delivering an authentic tone suited to modern production and scoring.
Powered by Ample Sound’s advanced engine, it offers a wide range of articulations and nuanced performance control. You get sustain, staccato, tremolo/roll, harmonics, slides, hammer‑on/pull‑off, trills, bends, and grace notes, with intelligent legato and realistic transition sampling for convincing playability. Real-time controls let you shape tremolo speed, vibrato depth, slide behavior, and performance noises, while humanization, multiple velocity layers, and round-robin sampling keep lines natural and lively. A built-in phrase/pattern tool helps you create idiomatic ornaments and runs, and onboard effects and microtuning options broaden your sound design palette.
Ample China Pipa is available as a 64‑bit VST3, AU, and AAX plug‑in, and as a standalone application for macOS and Windows. It’s ideal for film, TV, and game scoring, world and traditional music, and contemporary productions that need a distinctive, characterful plucked instrument.
