Guerrini Champion Accordion: A Review of the Kontakt Instrument by Virtual Acoustic

If you are looking for a realistic and versatile accordion sound for your music production, you might want to check out the Guerrini Champion Accordion by Virtual Acoustic. This is a Kontakt instrument that features a multi-timbral accordion with all 11 right hand and one left hand register, including all key, release and register switch noises, play style and register keyswitches. You can also control the bellow effect, the vibrato, the reverb, the echo and the attack time with a user-friendly graphic interface.

The Guerrini Champion Accordion is based on a real buttoned accordion from 1974, which was sampled at 44.1 kHz / 24-bit with 2212 samples and 1009 MB of size. The instrument has 4 variations for the right hand and 2 variations for the left hand, which are randomly selected to add realism and expression. The right hand instruments have 3 dynamic levels, and the voices are looped for unlimited length. You can also see which basic voices are in use on the interface.

The instrument is compatible with Native Instruments Kontakt 5 or higher, and it requires a full version of Kontakt to work. You can buy it for $99 from the Virtual Acoustic website[^1^], where you can also listen to some audio demos and watch a video performance by accordion master Branimir ÄokiÄ[^2^]. If you are a fan of accordion music, you will not be disappointed by the quality and playability of this instrument.To use the Guerrini Champion Accordion, you need to have Kontakt 5 or higher installed on your computer. You can download Kontakt from the Native Instruments website. After you purchase the instrument from the Virtual Acoustic website[^1^], you will receive a link to download a zip file containing the instrument files and a user manual. You need to extract the zip file to a folder of your choice, and then open Kontakt and add that folder to your library. You can then load the instrument from the browser and start playing.

The instrument has a simple and intuitive interface that lets you adjust various parameters and effects. You can select the right hand and left hand registers by clicking on the buttons on the accordion image, or by using keyswitches on your MIDI keyboard. You can also change the reverb, echo and attack time by moving the sliders on the bottom of the interface. You can force playing gently, normal or sharp by clicking on the buttons on the top right corner of the interface. You can also see which basic voices are in use by looking at the LEDs on the top left corner of the interface.

One of the most important features of this instrument is the dynamic bellow control, which allows you to simulate the natural movement of the accordion bellow. You can control this effect by using an expression pedal connected to your MIDI keyboard, or by using a MIDI CC message. The bellow control also affects the vibrato, which is a left hand effect that makes the sound more expressive. You can also create a natural \"suffocate\" tone effect by releasing all keys quickly. 061ffe29dd
