That would be great.

RealGuitar outputs MIDI, so I'm sure it would be pretty simple to direct that into Evolution. With the way the new playback system works, it should translate fine.

Going to be working on the strumming patterns now. Here's a jam I put together--both the lead and rhythm guitars were played in live:

The basis for strumming patterns is now also functional in the Evolution guitar engine. I tested it by playing a few chords while holding the strumming pattern key. I put the chord fretting position relatively high, around the 10th fret on the guitar. It can work with complex chords, too, in different inversions. The chords are: Bbmaj9/D, Ebmaj9(add11), Gmin7(add11), and Fmaj(add9).

This was recorded directly from Evolution--no external plugins used.

Hi Greg,

This sounds promising. The strumming preview sounds pretty good but will need tweaking to sound more realistic.
The Fusion Jazz clip sounds excellent!!!

Can't wait to see how the update for E Guitar is going to turn out!

Gregjazz speaking of Chords can i write out my own chords on any string with any inversion in any position .....

take for example triads: i use 3-different-3-note-combinations other than what everybody else uses... can i write them on the fretboard in any position on any string with out chord detection is there going to be a user chord library that we can write our own chords to be able to use with the strum patterns / the fretboard can we drag and drop those chords / strum patterns into our sequencers can you make the fretboard a fixed position thing: as-in you can write-on the fretboard with your mouse to make chords and single notes

The chords are detected taking into consideration inversion as well as position on the neck. It will detect a countless number of chords, from basic major and minor chords to altered chords and chords with upper structures.

If you need a very specific thing played on the fretboard, there's a chord mode that will use the exact notes you play. The strumming and strumming patterns apply to those as well as the detected chord system.

Gregjazz will that include the position, strings, frets, order of the notes and, the # of notes= iE =from 1 to 6-notes
can you turn off the chord detect system-if i needed to.



Fact there are 220-3-note combinations within the chromatic scale.
i would like to be-able to input all of them + their perspective inversions.. + the position and octaves and i would like to do this not as a keyboard player but as a composer using my sequencer

Yeah, there are two modes for the chords:

- Detect chord and automatically fret it, taking into consideration the inversion of the chord, position on fretboard, etc.

- No automatic detection--use the exact notes played for strumming.

Gregjazz what about: the= You Rock Guitar



do you have anything new in your program for this

Oh man so many emoticons.

I mean, I guess if you had some plugin or software to translate data from the You Rock Guitar into usable data for Evolution, you might be able to get something working. But the You Rock Guitar is much more limited than even an actual MIDI guitar as a controller, so it would be difficult to take advantage of all Evolution's features using it.

EEG Strawberry is just a few days away from beta. Here's a little jam in celebration of this. All the guitars were played live, using factory presets. No external effects were used on the guitar tracks either--the tones are straight from the sample library using the built-in stompboxes, amp/cab modeling, etc.

This sounds so great! Can't wait!

Sounds great Greg!
