Advise good harmonics (flagolet) sound of the electric guitar.

According to the internet:

The flageolet is a woodwind instrument and a member of the fipple flute family. Its invention was erroneously ascribed to the 16th-century Sieur Juvigny in 158.

So what is a guitar flageolet?

Yes, it is a flageolet! Maybe in the English language is somehow differently called?

Hi Galf and Igor,

In the video, the guitarist is showing you how to play harmonics. Placing your fingers on different parts of the fretboard gives a different harmonic. Is that what you are looking for?

Hi Pete

Now we know what it's called in English. Thanks

Yes, that's exactly what he need.

Here are a couple of links to guitar harmonic samples. I hope they are a good start for you;

https://sampleswap.org/filebrowser-new. ... rmonics%2F

It looks as though you have to register with Freesound and Sample Swap to access them, but they are free.

There are others here, available as a Kontakt instrument, which seem more detailed - http://soniczest.com/acoustic-autumn/ and https://www.cinematique-instruments.com/inst_gharm2.php

Flageolet is the correct word for playing the strings on a guitar so upper harmonics sound instead of the root tone.

Here is a free VST from Steinberg that do the job:

Yes, that's what I meant. Maybe someone knows Programs for KRONOS with harmonics? I found a few pieces, but this is not exactly what I need.

Hi there, Go here...

https://www.kidnepro.com/KN/Korg/Kronos ... _Main.html

We have three Kronos Electric Guitar sound libraries. All three have harmonics included. Just click on the library and then "view soundlists" to see exactly what's in each. There are also several demos included. If you need any more info just let me know.
