---In our 3 piece band I get stuck doing a lot, keyboards, vocals, programming and trying to emulate guitar parts...and I'm not that good!! LOL
I love the strumming or picking features with Garageband but what if you want to trigger thesse via midi, has anyone figured out how to do this? When we're doing Styx or Emerson, Lake and Palmer type songs having this ability while I'm doing the vocals and rhythm things would be great. I have to be able to do these guitar things while playing leads etc...
Thanks,Scott

Realguitar may be your best bet.

---Thanks, are you talking about the computer program Real Guitar? I've seen the demos and it's very impressive on them but reading the reviews makes me skiddish plus it takes a lot more computer than what I have. Great suggestion though if it worked like it does when Guitar George or whoever it is does it with his Keytar it would be a lifesaver kindof. I still have to do the other stuff at the same time though..

I own it and it works amazingly well. It allows you to choose the sample quality size when you install, so you could just dial that down and it will work fine on almost any computer.

---That sounds very appealing, can you play the chords with one hand leaving the other free for leads and knob twisting?
