Product information

Ample China Pipa delivers a rich and expressive virtual recreation of the iconic Chinese lute through two distinct libraries: Master for traditional timbres and Expert for a modern, performance-forward tone. Featuring performances by two renowned Pipa soloists—Professor Yin Chen and Lisha Shang—this instrument captures the depth, nuance, and agility of real-world playing, all sampled from a hand-crafted Feng Wei Pipa. With a diverse articulation set, advanced tremolo and bend modeling, flexible legato, and a powerful strumming engine, Ample China Pipa offers stunning realism, whether you're composing classical pieces or pushing sonic boundaries.
