    I'd like a Clarinet too. A guitar... probably not. Alex has said it tons of times, replicating string instruments is hard. I would try to sample it...

    You can get some awesome results from an electric guitar VSTi (a physically modelled one instead of sample-based, because royalties) plus Guitar Rig / VANDAL :D
    And yeah, The string instruments are hard to replicate, because there's a TON of ways to play with them (chords, dyads, hammer-ons, pull-offs, bending, legatos, glissandos, slides... even if you play the string upside-down or downside-upD: ) and the Starbound sampling engine is pretty limited (Key on, key off, sample fade. That's all)

    That's why I'm refraining to launch RK Lead Guitar / Overdrive Guitar just now, because its quality is subpar at this moment :(


    EDIT: I'd love to achieve something on this line (From V-Metal, an incredible guitar library from Prominy):



    But no pitch-bending support makes me very, very sad :(

    The pitch bend could be achived via the actual ABC file, if the song is written pproperly that the instrment changes pitch quickly enough up and down it could simulate the "wawawaaaahhh" and down/upslides a real guitar can pull, you just have to let people know if they write secific ABC songs for your instruments that the lead guitar has to have those specific notes in play?[DOUBLEPOST=1431810293][/DOUBLEPOST]Also..... is the hammered dulcimer an string instrument? I really don't know :V

    I'm afraid I can't tell people "hey guys, you must edit your files in order to use my instruments!" :cry: 99% of the Starbound users just convert their favourite MIDIs into ABC or download ABC-ready songs bundles.
    That's a solution if someone have the time / knowledge to edit a MIDI via DAW beforehand :(

    And yup, the dulcimer is a percussion/string instrument :nod:

    Guilty! I'm one of them. Little time and education to actually do that, I'm just a music enthusiast and lover, not a pro.

    hehe, I'm guilty too :p I edited a bunch of MIDIs to accommodate them for the Starbound ABC format. But I wouldn't do that in a daily basis, tho :(

    Overdrive is sub-par in the vanilla game anyways

    Yeah but I must not fall into the same mistakes if I'm aiming to improve the vanilla instruments:cry:

    I just realized, we have full choir microphones, full string section violins, but no full brass section! You should totally pioneer the multi-trumpet! :D[DOUBLEPOST=1433618362][/DOUBLEPOST]I mean come on! How awsome would it be to march around booming out this?!

    That'd be incredible!

    I have a request that's a bit... Unfitting, from the rest of this mod. But I'm sure you could do it, right?

    I'd like to see a guttural microphone. It'd be perfect whether you want to play metal or simply spook your friends. Just, whatever you do... try not to let it sound like burps, okay? Thanks! :p

    it's been quite a long time since the last instrument suggestion.

    i asked for multi-trumpets...., and also whats wrong with burping?

    nothing, it was my favorite part of the comment, because if you shift the pitch of some peoples death-growls it sounds like a long burp

    How do I obtain these instruments? Sorry, I know at least the music works, which means the instruments should work, but idk how to obtain these.
