Mike Longo at Expanding Sound let us know that he’s shared a new set of instruments for Ableton Live, Folk Dulcimer Ableton Instruments, as a free download.
Here’s what he has to say about it:
“Happy Holidays to you, regardless of what you celebrate!
Introducing the Expanding Sound Ableton Folk Dulcimer Instrument. A very fun little pack to make.
The folk dulcimer has a timbre similar to a choirs of strings style harpsichord, as the strings are layered. I made 3 free Ableton instruments; one individual string, one using the same pitch with octave separations, and one in the instruments standard tuning, which includes a 5th. It sounds great, and I hope you enjoy this freebie!”

Folk Dulcimer Ableton Instruments is available now as a free download.
It’s the dulcimer season… Native Instruments is giving away a Chinese dulcimer too.
Rather rude Ableton doesn’t give away something free for every holiday, but forces holidays to share.
There’s the usually three-string mountain dulcimer, fretted and played in the lap, and then there’s the hammered dulcimer. where strings are hit with a hammer, lots of strings.
