Cinematique Instruments – Autoharp v3.5 (KONTAKT)
The autoharp was invented in the late 19th century by Charles F. Zimmermann, a German immigrant from Philadelphia. It is a stringed instrument, and despite its name, the autoharp is not a harp. In fact, this instrument is a chordal zither with 36 steel strings stretched over a resonator. It has a series of chord strips that, when pressed, will mute all the strings except those that form the desired chord. So you can easily play chords. It’s the perfect tool to give your music a subtle, understated shape.
