Built-in Amp Simulators and Effects
Whether you’re shaping a focused, genre-specific tone or experimenting with new sonic landscapes, V-METAL 2 gives you the flexibility to use its built-in tools—or bypass them entirely and use your favorite amp simulators.
The order of effects can be changed easily with drag and drop. Effects can also be added or removed through simple, intuitive operations.
A wide array of amp and effect modules is included, allowing you to shape your tone freely and intuitively.
With over 250 inspiring signal chain presets, you can instantly achieve a mix-ready guitar sound the moment a preset is loaded.
内置箱头模拟与效果器
无论你是想塑造精准的风格化音色，还是探索全新的音景，V-METAL 2 均支持灵活调用内置工具——或完全绕过它们，直接使用你最爱的第三方箱头模拟器。
通过拖拽即可轻松调整效果器顺序，利用直观简单的操作即可自由添加或移除效果模块。
丰富的箱头与效果模块库让你能够自由直观地塑造音色。
超过 250 个启发性信号链预设，让你在加载预设的瞬间即可获得混音就绪的吉他音色。
Fretboard Monitor
The SPI engine automatically selects the optimal string and fret position based on your performance.
You can also manually switch strings using key switches.
The Fretboard Monitor provides real-time visual feedback of the current fret position and playing technique.
指板监视器
SPI 引擎会根据你的演奏自动选择最佳弦位与品位。
你也可通过键位开关手动切换弦位。
指板监视器会实时显示当前品位与演奏技法的视觉反馈。
Multiple Levels of Palm Muting Intensity
V-METAL 2 offers dynamic palm muting with multiple intensity levels, allowing for expressive control and enhancing the authenticity of your guitar sound.
多级手掌制音强度
V-METAL 2 提供具备多强度层级的动态手掌制音效果，可进行富有表现力的控制，显著提升吉他音色的真实感。
Pre Noise
The Pre Noise feature adds various picking nuances to the beginning of each note, enhancing the realism and natural feel of the guitar sound.
预噪音
预噪音功能可在每个音符起始处添加多样的拨弦细节，显著提升吉他音色的真实感与自然度。
Realtime Legato Slide / Realtime Hammer-on & Pull-off
V-METAL 2’s Real-Time Legato Slide uses actual legato samples to deliver the expressive nuance of a human finger sliding across the strings—something pitch-based emulation simply cannot replicate.
Hammer-on and pull-off samples are also real, recorded performances.
Realtime legato slide and hammer-on/pull-off articulation are available for all instruments—including chord instruments—except FX instruments.
实时连奏滑音 / 实时击勾弦
V-METAL 2 的实时连奏滑音采用真实滑音采样，精准还原手指在琴弦上滑动的细腻表现力——这是基于音高模拟的技术无法复制的。
击勾弦采样同样源自真实演奏实录。
除特殊效果乐器外，所有乐器（包括和弦乐器）均支持实时连奏滑音与击勾弦演奏法。
Real Sampled Chords
V-METAL 2 includes an extensive collection of pre-recorded chord samples—such as 2-string dyads, octaves, power chords, power 9ths, sus4, and more—allowing instant access to authentic guitar voicings.
Prominy’s guitar libraries are the only ones to offer such a comprehensive range of real chord recordings.
真实采样和弦
V-METAL 2 内置大量预录制的真实和弦采样——包括双音和弦、八度音、强力和弦、九度强力和弦、挂四和弦等——助你一键调用纯正吉他声部。
Prominy 系列吉他音源是目前唯一提供如此全面真实和弦采样的音色库。
Real-Sounding Emulated Chords
In addition to the large set of real chord samples, V-METAL 2 provides an even wider range of chord types and voicing variations through emulated chords.
Our proprietary recording and scripting techniques ensure that these emulated chords deliver a sound remarkably close to the real thing.
真实模拟和弦
除大量真实和弦采样外，V-METAL 2 通过模拟和弦技术提供更丰富的和弦类型与排列变体。
我们独有的录音与脚本技术确保这些模拟和弦能呈现出无限接近真实演奏的听觉效果。
User Chord
The User Chord Editor lets you create custom chord shapes with full control over each string.
You can define how each string behaves—whether it sustains, mutes, produces picking noise, always plays open regardless of fret position, strums or not, and more.
用户自定义和弦
用户和弦编辑器可创建自定义和弦指型，并支持对每根琴弦进行独立控制。
你可以定义每根琴弦的发声方式——包括延音、制音、产生拨弦噪音、始终演奏空弦音（无视品位）、是否参与扫弦等。
Customizable Strum Key
In addition to the User Chord Editor, you can customize how each string responds when triggered by the Strum Keys or the Normal Key.
可定制扫弦键
除用户和弦编辑器外，还可自定义每根琴弦在响应扫弦键或常规触发键时的发声行为。
Arpeggio Key
Each string has a dedicated Arpeggio Key.
When a chord instrument is selected, the notes of the chord are automatically assigned to the corresponding Arpeggio Keys, allowing you to perform arpeggios intuitively.
This is not a traditional “arpeggiator.” It simply lets you play individual notes (strings) from a chord manually.
琶音键
每根琴弦均设有专属琶音触发键。
当选择和弦乐器时，和弦音符将自动分配至对应的琶音键，使你能够直观地演奏琶音乐句。
此功能并非传统“琶音器”，而是允许您手动弹奏和弦中的各个音符（琴弦）。
Auto Stroke Detection
With SPI’s Auto Stroke Detection, the system automatically analyzes the current beat position and determines the appropriate stroke direction—down or up.
Multiple detection modes are available, and manual control is also supported.
自动拨弦方向检测
SPI 引擎的自动拨弦方向检测功能可实时分析当前节拍位置，智能判定合适的拨弦方向（下拨或上拨）。
系统提供多种检测模式，并支持手动控制覆盖。
Double-Tracking
Double-tracking is a widely used technique in guitar recording that creates a rich, wide stereo image and adds thickness to the sound.
With V-METAL 2 SPI, you can easily achieve this effect by loading the Double Track multi.
No identical samples are played simultaneously in both channels, ensuring a natural and spacious result.
双轨录音
双轨录音是吉他录音中广泛使用的技术，可营造丰富宽阔的立体声声场并增强声音厚度。
通过 V-METAL 2 SPI，只需加载双轨多重模式即可轻松实现这一效果。
双声道不会同时播放相同采样，确保呈现自然且具有空间感的音效。
Intelligent Instrument Key Switch with Chord Recognition
You can instantly select an instrument (articulation) using the Instrument Select Key Switches.
All articulations can be freely assigned to any key, allowing you to create your own custom key switch mapping.
These switches feature chord recognition, enabling you to select a chord instrument not only by pressing the assigned key, but also by playing the chord notes within the key switch range.
In other words, there’s no need to memorize specific key switches—just hold the chord notes in the designated range, and you’re ready to play.
智能乐器键位切换（带和弦识别）
你可以使用乐器选择键位开关快速切换乐器（演奏法）。
所有演奏法均可自由分配至任意琴键，支持创建自定义键位映射方案。
该功能具备和弦识别能力：不仅可通过按压指定键选择和弦乐器，还可直接在键位切换范围内弹奏和弦音符来激活切换。
换言之，无需记忆特定功能键——只需在指定音域内按住和弦音符，即可随时开始演奏。
Rake
V-METAL 2 reproduces the rake technique, where multiple muted strings are brushed before striking the intended note—adding realism and expressive nuance to lead phrases.
哑音
V-METAL 2 真实还原哑音技巧——在弹奏目标音符前快速刷过若干制音琴弦，为主奏乐句增添真实感与表现力细节。
Cricket
“Cricket” is a guitar technique often used by metal and rock guitarists during solos.
By striking the whammy bar, the tremolo unit vibrates rapidly, producing a distinctive “crying” sound reminiscent of a cricket.
蟋蟀音效
蟋蟀音效是金属与摇滚吉他手在独奏中常用的技巧。
通过快速拨动弹奏摇把，使颤音系统快速振动，产生类似蟋蟀鸣叫的独特哭泣音效。
Feedback
In real-world guitar playing, feedback occurs when a heavily distorted tone is played near the amplifier.
V-METAL 2 faithfully reproduces this feedback sound, with adjustable pitch and fade time.
反馈啸叫
在实际吉他演奏中，当使用重度失真音色靠近音箱演奏时会产生反馈啸叫。
V-METAL 2 精准还原这种反馈音效，并支持音高与衰减时间的灵活调整。
Low Notes Coverage
The guitar is tuned to Drop C, one of the most popular tunings among metal and rock guitarists.
V-METAL covers the lower register (from low C to low D♯) and is suitable for a wide range of musical genres, including modern metal, death metal, nu metal, metalcore, rock, pop, and more.
Additionally, the tuning can be lowered by up to four semitones (down to low G♯), providing access to even deeper and heavier tones.
低音覆盖范围
吉他采用降 C 调，这是金属和摇滚吉他手最常用的调弦方式之一。
V-METAL 2 覆盖低音区（从低音 C 到低音 D♯），适用于现代金属、死亡金属、新金属、金属核、摇滚、流行等多种音乐风格。
此外，调弦还可进一步降低最多四个半音（低至 G♯），轻松获得更低沉、更具冲击力的音色。
Direct Guitar Signals
Shape your tone to match any musical style by using the built-in amp simulator or your favorite external amp simulation tools.
直通吉他信号
通过内置箱头模拟器或其他你喜爱的箱头插件，自由塑造音色以适配任意音乐风格。
