RealGuitar 6

Truly realistic sounding solo and accompaniment Guitars

If you are serious about creating truly realistic sounding solo and accompaniment guitar stuff for your songs, RealGuitar is just what you need. RealGuitar is a sample-based virtual instrument with an innovative approach to guitar sound modelling and guitar part performing on keyboard.

Chords played on the MIDI keyboard are automatically converted and all important chord types are recognized correctly. Keyboarders are becoming guitar virtuosos, using a variety of guitar playing techniques like strumming, picking, muting and sliding.

Real Guitar also provides the ultimate library of high-quality acoustic guitar sounds. The two included guitar instruments offer a total of 13 different acoustic guitars with steel and nylon strings, fingered and picked as well as 12- and 14-string guitars. Last but not least, the 1250 package provides professional rhythm guitar  patterns that cover a wide range of musical styles, and turn each song into the great guitar accompaniment.

The true power of RealGuitar lies in brand new technologies incorporated in this innovative guitar performance tool:

• Multi-channel layering technology, incorporating a custom library of specially recorded samples taken from every fret of all strings of a real guitar.

• Floating Fret Position technology, which imitates change of fret position of a guitarist's hand on the neck. This gives you the possibility of playing on up to 122 guitar frets using just 50 keys of a standard keyboard.

• The original Guitar Touch technology letting you easily imitate basic guitar techniques (strumming, plucking, sliding, bending, muting, etc..), using standard MIDI keyboard and MIDI controllers, such as Pitch Bender, Modulation Wheel, Sustain Pedal, Aftertouch.

• Guitar Rhythm Pattern technology providing huge MusicLab Guitar Pattern Library for easily creating guitar accompaniment tracks. All you have to do is to find the appropriate rhythm pattern(s), copy it to the needed number of measures, start your sequencer and use MIDI keyboard to play chord changes, or alternatively add chords to a MIDI track via sequencer's editor.

• Song Mode turning RealGuitar into a powerful and easy-to-use song writing tool allowing you in no time create perfect guitar backing tracks for your songs. Simply insert chord symbols and rhythm patterns into the built-in Song Track - and your guitar part is ready!

• Advanced Humanize section allowing to easily add realism to the performance, both live and step-recorded in a MIDI track, or automatic.
