Most popular Electric Guitar from the 50s till nowadays!

RealStrat is a sample-based virtual instrument with an innovative approach to guitar sound modeling and guitar part performing on keyboard. RealStrat provides incredible playability based on the unique performance modes and easy-to-use keyboard layout as well as the advanced key/pedal/velocity switch system allowing a keyboardist to perform guitar parts with a whole new level of realistic expression.

RealStrat covers practically all sounds, articulations, and techniques a professional guitarist can produce on his Strat, including  mute, bridge mute, harmonics, pinch harmonics, unison bend, strumming, picking, chord choking, scraping, etc.

High quality dry samples recorded directly from Stratocaster pick-ups let you easily create any desired guitar sound using your favorite amplifier simulator.

RealStrat innovations:

  • Multi-channel layering technology, incorporating a custom library of specially recorded samples taken from every fret of all 6 strings of a real guitar.
  • The unique 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 140 guitar frets using just 46 keys of a standard keyboard!
  • Our 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, and Aftertouch.
  • Sound Humanize technology allowing to wholly remove ‘machine gun’ effect on note repetition (tremolo, strumming, etc…).
  • Guitar Rhythm Pattern technology providing powerful Pattern Manager completed with huge MusicLab Guitar Pattern Library for easily creating guitar accompaniment tracks. All you have to do is to find the appropriate rhythm pattern(s) in the Pattern Manager tree view, 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.
  • The unique Struminator technology letting you use alternative MIDI controller (standard Guitar Hero game controller for Sony Playstation 3 by Activision Inc.) for creating authentic guitar accompaniment parts with ease and fun.
