Yesterday I released and launched KORAGUI, the first album of a kora and guitar duo I’m part of. Leaving the kora aside, and while normal electric and acoustic-nylon guitar sounds are part of it, all else was done using MG3 using various virtual instruments—for the strings, cello, duduk, and two synth-patch of Diva, one that doubles the electric at times, and one to make a solo for a small bridge in one of the album’s 3 tracks.
Here’s the Bandcamp link to it. Enjoy—and thanks a bunch MG…
Really beautiful stuff, Bernard!
Bernard,
Superb music and sound production.

@David_Marshall Thanks David, and glad to hear about the production.
While I also did the recording and mixing for my first 2 albums, I had them mastered by a mastering engineer. But for that last one, I did it myself—testing it in every possible setting speaker-wise—and I’m happy with the result. I wouldn’t master a full electric band mix that has a lot of low-end, but for more acoustic oriented productions I now feel confident that I can do it.
Really like this, Bernard! Purchased!

Very good. I like sound and production. MG3 it’s really a new horizon. Lately I am composing less music than in the past. I hope your great example will trigger a ‘click’ in my musical brain. Thanks for posting! A true example about how far you can go thanks to MG3. Beautiful music for the soul and spirit.
@pasha Glad you enjoyed it. And yes, MG clearly opens up new horizons.
As for “I hope your great example will trigger a ‘click’ in my musical brain”, that would be great. For all I know, the world would be in a better place if everyone played a musical instrument.
Wow! 
Really really beautiful! 
I almost daily listen to Takashi Kokubo from when walking my dog to reading and sleeping… 
(nature ambient music)
But I can see this album being played very often instead! 
Too busy moving and whatnot so I haven’t even had the time to try my electro-acoustic Kora with MG3 properly yet:
@Yadrichik_Chaya Happy you enjoy it. This is also “nature ambient music”. 
Interesting kora. Where is it from ? And I’d be curious to know how it tracks with MG3.
Of course! But Takashi Kokubo also has the sounds of birds, the ocean etc. deeply embedded in the tracks. Same same but different vibe.

Yeah, I understood that.
Interesting design those travel koras. I’ll send the link to my friend—who happens to build his own koras.
