Kong Audio releases the ChineeLiuQin VSTi plugin, The Willow Mandolin from China

Kong Audio has released the latest VSTi plugin, ChineeLiuQin, as the 14th addition to the Chinee Series. The
LiuQin is a grassroot folk instrument which was originally popular in some provinces of China for the last two centuries.

LiuQin was a simple and rough instrument at the beginning, and it was once referred to as “the plebs’ Pipa” due to its lack of refinement – yet it is much closer to the true rural life. The structure of today’s LiuQin has been redesigned in the mid-20th century.

With the improved physical form, plus its higher pitch scale and its Western Mandolin-like acoustic effect, LiuQin has become a prominent instrument in today’s Chinese classical circle.

ChineeLiuQin is powered by the Windows native QIN engine. For more information and the audio demo of ChineeLiuQin, visit chineekong.com/chineeliuqin.htm
