“The Marxophone is a fretless zither played via a system of metal hammers.
It features two octaves of double melody strings in the key of C major (middle C to C”), and four sets of chord strings (C major, G major, F major, and D7).
Sounding somewhat like a mandolin, the Marxophone’s timbre is also reminiscent of various types of hammered dulcimers.”
This library is perfect for adding ethnic flavour to various genres including pop, ambient or even cinematic compositions.
