The Evolution Rock Standard by Orange Tree Samples

Orange Tree Samples Evolution Rock Standard is a detailed virtual electric guitar instrument library crafted for authentic rock guitar tones and performances.
It accurately captures the sound of an iconic electric guitar with dual humbucker pickups, delivering bold mid‑range, expressive sustain, and versatility across clean, crunchy, and high‑gain styles.
The library is powered by Orange Tree’s Evolution engine, giving you a wealth of performance and articulation tools such as an advanced strumming pattern editor, automatic chord detection, and a robust effects section tailored for rock production.
With multiple dynamics, round‑robin variation, legato articulations, and expressive MIDI triggers, Evolution Rock Standard lets you build realistic rhythm and lead guitar parts without needing advanced programming.
It includes factory presets ready to plug into your mix, and is compatible with the free Kontakt Player, making it accessible even without the full Kontakt version.
The instrument also supports NKS for tight integration with Komplete Kontrol hardware and software workflows.
