Truly authentic solo and accompaniment guitar parts.

RealGuitar, the audio synthesizer you've been dreaming of! Whether you're a guitar guru or a beginner, RealGuitar has got you covered.

This intuitive program boasts a sleek interface that offers endless possibilities for creating your musical masterpieces. Strum your way to success with the virtual guitar, which lets you simulate a wide range of guitar techniques, including plucking, bending, muting, sliding, and strumming.

RealGuitar offers several playing modes, including steel fingered, steel stereo, nylon fingered, steel stereo, and more. You'll also enjoy the freedom to customize the master volume, pitch, modulation, tempo, equalizer, MIDI channels, buffer size, and bitrate to your liking.

But wait, there's more! RealGuitar's impressive feature set includes auto fret position activation, accent velocity alteration, sample manipulation, strum and release time adjustment, noise configuration (fret, release, and pick values), and sound settings (mute, slow strum). Get your creative juices flowing with the audio parameters like tremolo and chorus, the MIDI keyboard for chord changes, synchronization with your host's tempo, beats, loop, and time signature, and drag-and-drop functionality for your selected audio patterns.

Feeling adventurous? Take advantage of the major or minor triads, adjust the number of strings, and use the legato technique for seamless note transitions. And if that's not enough, choose from the performance modes of solo, harmony, bass and chord, bass and pick, and chords to make your tracks come to life.

In our testing, we found that RealGuitar delivers top-notch audio quality and maintains consistent performance from start to finish. With its comprehensive feature set and reliable performance, RealGuitar is a must-have tool for anyone looking to create professional-grade guitar accompaniment tracks.
