Btw, from what I remember, virtual guitarist has got some pretty good funky patterns inside

These virtual simulations are getting better esp for practice when there's no other guitar players to play with....wait a minte I'll just yell out the window .... Are there any guitar players out there?.. OK one at a time - which one of you can play Autumn Leaves? ... Anyway. You know the routine already I'm sure.

Damn I'm sure glad it's Friday.

Cheers,
Gordon

Sure, anytime.

Fender Stratocaster Guitar Chords

Check the demo tunes there.

Sascha Frank got it. The thing about choked Chords is that they can be time varied. Some chokes are instantaneous, some are a bit delayed. Samples can't capture that.

Sure they can! It's just not something you could throw in a SF2 and forget about. You need performance programming around it.

My plan (if I actually had time) would be to use the Mod wheel to control duration, which would be selected through multiple-layer sample sets with release triggers.

I think that could work for mutes, but how would it work for choked chords?

Typically, you'd stop a "ringing" chord with a choked percussive strike. The two sounds are mutually exclusive, like a "choke group" in drum machines: one sound cuts the other off immediately.

I'm not a guitarist, but I'm sure that choking at different times creates different sounds.

Again, I'm missing your meaning (seems the trend for this thread!).

Could you provide an audio excerpt from an existing song to illustrate your meaning?

The Sascha Frank Example was good. I just wish those other instruments weren't in there.

I was referring to the "choking at different times creates different sounds" comment. Do you simply mean that one sound isn't used all the time? If so, then that just requires a random rotation between a pool of samples.

East West has a demo cd which includes "Sounds of the 70s" (I think that's the name). I believe the are some funky "chucka chuckas" on there.

But is that part of a complete E-Guitar Library? A competent E-Guitar Library has to have it all. Unlooped String Samples for all notes, Mutes for all notes, Choked versions of each individual note that can be played at will via modwheel.

Choked E-Guitar Chords.
