Overview

Create truly realistic solo and accompaniment guitar sounds on your keyboard.

RealGuitar is a sample-based virtual instrument with 3 unique technologies: Multichannel Layering, Floating Fret Position, and Guitar Touch.

Multichannel Layering technology incorporates a custom library of specially recorded samples taken from every fret of all 6 strings of a real guitar.

Floating Fret Position technology imitates change of fret position of a guitarist's hand on the neck. This gives you the possibility of playing on up to 104 guitar frets using just 43 keys of a standard keyboard!

Guitar Touch technology lets 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, and aftertouch.

These technologies allow you to closely emulate live guitar sound and techniques, letting you perform guitar parts with a whole new level of realistic expression. They also make it possible to get that special recognizable sound of a real 12-string guitar using samples taken from an ordinary 6-string guitar, as well as to achieve true boubling (double track) effects.
