Spitfire Audio Ronroco by Gustavo Santaolalla (Digital product)

Ronroco by Gustavo Santaolalla is an exquisitely crafted virtual instrument library that captures the soulful and atmospheric voice of the ronroco, an Andean folk string instrument, made famous in contemporary music and film scoring by Gustavo Santaolalla.

Rooted in traditional Andean folk heritage, the ronroco in this library is specifically tuned to E-minor, mirroring the exact tuning used by Santaolalla himself. This instrument is known for its deeply evocative, warm, and haunting tonal qualities that lend a unique character to any composition.

This collection is meticulously sampled from Gustavo Santaolalla's personal ten-string ronroco, capturing every nuance of his playing style. The library includes multiple articulations such as slides, twiddles, vibrato, and tremolos, all performed by Santaolalla, providing an authentic and expressive performance experience. Additionally, it features a 32-step sequencer with per-step articulation control, enabling composers to create intricate rhythmic patterns and melodic phrases with ease.

Ronroco by Gustavo Santaolalla is perfect for film, TV, and game composers seeking to add a rich, emotional layer to their scores, as well as musicians looking for a distinctive instrument with a unique sonic palette. The built-in effects, including convolution and algorithmic reverbs and delay, further enhance the cinematic atmosphere of the instrument.
