Impact Soundworks – Shreddage 3 Argent

Shreddage 3 Argent returns to the metal roots of the Shreddage line, but more intense than ever before: a head-crushing 9-string Schecter Damien Platinum, one of the guitars used by composer Mick Gordon on the Doom 2016 soundtrack. So much scorching detail that it took more than 200 hours to sample it all, combined with the easy-to-use performance of the Shreddage engine, gives it exceptional realism. Brutal, powerful, and nimble, Shreddage 3 Argent inflicts relentless sonic aggression in djent as well as progressive, heavy, death and technical metal.

Over 31,000 pristine 24-bit samples

Recorded through two separate pickup positions (neck and bridge) DI, so you can make your own tone.

9 string guitar tuned to low C#

Ultra-low tuning gives this beast the ideal sound for djent, argent metal, and other modern progressive genres. But its enormous range and virtuosic playing ability allow it to go far beyond.

All crucial lead and rhythm articulations

Sustains, powerchords, palm mutes, staccatos, natural & artificial harmonics, pinch harmonics, tapping, tremolo, slides, FX, hammer-on, pull-off, rakes, and chokes.

Realistic performances through meticulous sampling

Every string sampled from open up to the highest fret with up to 4x down/4x up strokes per note, 3 dynamic layers, and up to 5 palm mute layers. Our first guitar with 4x down and 4x sustain layers.

76 production-ready tone snapshots

From hi-gain amped options to clean, ambient playing to ULTRA-heavy Argent snapshots crafted by Geoffrey Day (a.k.a. GeoffPlaysGuitar).
