Impact Soundworks Plectra Series 2: Highland Harps is a beautifully detailed virtual instrument library that captures the enchanting sounds of traditional folk harps. Featuring three distinct instruments—the Celtic harp, lap harp, and lyre—this collection is meticulously sampled to bring authentic tonal character and rich expressiveness to your music production.

Recorded in intimate close-mic settings, the library delivers a warm, rustic sound that evokes the spirit of the Irish countryside and Appalachian mountains. The deep sampling includes up to seven round robin variations and seven dynamic layers, ensuring natural, fluid performances that breathe life into every note.

With a wide range of articulations such as plucked, bowed, hammered, e-bowed, harmonics, and percussive slaps, the Plectra Series 2 allows musicians and composers to explore diverse expressive possibilities. Beyond the 14 "Natural" patches, you also gain access to 10 "Designed" patches that transform the harps into lush atmospheric pads, keys, and evolving soundscapes, expanding creative horizons.

The user-friendly interface offers flexible controls for attack, decay, brightness, and reverb, enabling seamless tone shaping to fit any musical style. Whether you’re composing traditional folk tunes, medieval or Renaissance music, or modern cinematic scores, Highland Harps provides an inspiring and versatile toolset.
