The sounds of ukulele and charango

Infuse your productions with the uplifting tones of ukulele and charango. Packing vibrant chords, playful plucks, and authentic patterns, Session Ukulele is perfect for laying the foundations or adding decorative touches to feel-good pop hits, jingles, and everything in between. Keep it traditional or let your creativity run free with a range of effects and controls.

Three handcrafted instruments

The sounds of Session Ukulele were meticulously captured from instruments hand built by master luthiers in Hawaii and Bolivia. Whether you’re after the bright and cheerful tones of the soprano ukulele, the warmth and resonance of the tenor, or the lively and distinct character of the charango, each instrument packs its own set of sound presets and patterns that enhance their unique aspects.

Two ways to play

Craft your own melodies note-by-note or explore 385 patterns brought to life by the new improved strumming algorithm. Song presets make it simple to switch between patterns mid-performance, while the engine will automatically select the most natural sounding chord inversions. You can also drag and drop patterns into your DAW for further editing.

Sculpt your sound

Dial in ultra-realistic parts with three types of finger vibrato, resonance controls, fret noises, and an array of authentic articulation options. Choose between one dynamic and two condenser microphone setups and add instant width with the doubling switch. Refine your sound further with studio-grade delay, reverb, and modulation effects, compression, custom EQ presets, and brand-new lo-fi effects.

Play it with Kontrol keyboards

Session Ukulele offers full integration with our Kontrol S-Series keyboards. Take advantage of the Light Guide to display key ranges, articulations, and expressive techniques such as slides and mutes, allowing you to effortlessly switch between playing styles and articulations mid-take.
