For celtic music I wouldn’t use a synth. A sampler like Kontakt with suitable samplelibraries would be much better for the task.
That being said, Vital can do Karplus strong synthesis which can give somewhat convincing plucked string sounds. Check out yuli yolo’s presets, he has some nice ones.

Where is the option to do Karplus Strong synthesis in Vital? I do not see this option. Thank you.

Comb Pluck.vital (2.3 MB)
It’s a form of synthesis that uses keytracked combfilters (or tuned delays) with high resonance that is excited by a sound, this makes the combfilters ring out. In vital you can send a short burst of noise from the sampler into a keytracked combfilter and turn up the resonance (which controls how long the notes are ringing) and now you are doing Karplus/Strong synthesis.

I see that your post about finding presets for Celtic music is from two years now. Presets for creating Celtic music have become even more accessible since then. You can check out websites like Splice, Native Instruments, and Loopmasters for a wide range of Celtic-themed presets compatible with various music production software.

By the way, in the past two years, have you ever considered exploring the authentic sound of Celtic music through playing a bouzouki? It’s a captivating stringed instrument with a rich cultural heritage that can add a unique touch to your compositions. If you’re curious, you can find some lovely bouzouki for sale and see how it resonates with your musical soul.
