Panorama Acoustic Black Friday: Sonora Cinematic's Kontakt library of three acoustic guitars is $64, 30% off, with the deal ending Dec 6, 2026.
Guitarist and film composer Matteo Nahum played all three instruments: a steel-string, a nylon-string and a 12-string. The maker says the library blends intimate, atmospheric warmth with cinematic depth.
It follows Panorama Guitars and Panorama Hybrid, the maker's earlier shoegaze and post-rock sets, and swaps the electrics for acoustic resonance.
The maker pitches the library at ambient, indie, folk and singer-songwriter writing. It also lists film scoring, game soundtracks, sound design and ethereal arrangements.
The Aria Engine gives you two customisable layers, and both load the same articulations. You can blend between variants, stack the layers or crossfade them.
Any parameter can be assigned to the X or Y axis of the XY pad. Filter, volume and panning can be modulated, and you can import your own samples into the engine.
You can also record your own XY movements, save them as presets and change their playback speed.
Articulations run from plucked to picked and from sparse to dense. The XY pad lets you glide from a soft pluck to a picked tone with a sharper attack.
There is a stronger focus on IMPRO articulations than in the electric library. These are free-tempo, one-note improvisations for depth and movement in ambient arrangements. Some add fifth and octave improvisations.
The library ships with over 100 presets in six categories:
It needs Kontakt Player 8.1 or higher.
Yes. The Panorama Acoustic Black Friday deal is 30% off, bringing the library to $64, and it ends Dec 6, 2026. It is Sonora Cinematic's Kontakt library of three acoustic guitars played by Matteo Nahum.
Three acoustic guitars recorded by Matteo Nahum: a steel-string, a nylon-string and a 12-string. The maker describes them as rich and warm, delicate and intimate, and ethereal and shimmering, in that order.
Panorama Acoustic needs Kontakt Player 8.1 or higher. It is a Kontakt instrument, so it loads inside Kontakt. The maker's system requirements list nothing beyond that version.
It is the engine behind the library, with two customisable layers that share the same articulations. You can blend or crossfade them, map parameters to the XY pad, record XY motions as presets and import your own samples.
