---

*Note: If launched with the product "KONTAKT PLAYER" with PLAYER appended to the product name, it will be a demonstration operation and can not use the full version. Please note that "KONTAKT" is required to use the full version.

* The version was upgraded to v2 on 2021/09/11 and the operating condition became "Kontakt 5.8.1 or later". If you are using "Kontakt 4.2", please use the included v1.

* The successor to this product is "VS SANSHIN Y". The instruments used for recording are the same, but we continue to sell them because the tones differ depending on the recording environment and only this product is compatible with SFZ.
