Yes, AC/DC uses vst. You didn't know ? :D

I think it's better the midifile be created by a guitarist, because the "guitarist feeling" is essential.
I know, it's an evidence. :P

To be continued.

If you want to emulate a guitarist you will need to practice your "solo face". The "guitarist feeling" is a direct result of this face. ImageImage

The clip is not bad for an artificial guitar.
Of course the most important factor is the MIDI, imho you still can hear it's not played by a guitar.
Soundwise, try the following :
Copy the guitar track, send the copy through the twin reverb emulation set fairly clean, pan the two a bit (not much) L / R and mix to taste.
So many rock guitar tones on record or even live are the result of using a combination of different amps, mostly mixed so they appear to be one single track with monster tone.
Keep on experimenting,

If I've understood what you say (my english language is bad), you're right about amps. :)
I think Free played on many different amps. Every guitarist had a sound not similar with the others musicians who played with him (different : guitar, amp, touch, etc...).

I've all mixed in the little mp3 with the same vst jcm900. Stupid. :?
Thank's.

Daniel,
not exactly. Koss (the guitar player ) used Les Paul Standards through Marshall Plexis almost exclusively, no FX most of the time.
I was not talking about Free.
I was talking about getting a huge electric guitar sound.
Real world :
Send the guitar signal to two different amps AT THE SAME TIME, example : distorted Marshall + clean Twin Reverb, other combinations work well, too. Adjust the volume and tone of both amps so that you hear one fat guitar sound witn the best characteristics of both amps.
VSTi world :
Same principle, duplicate the MIDI track, send one to sampler with guitar sound, then to JCM 900.
Send the other one to a second sampler with guitar sound, then to the Rednef Twin (the Simulanalog Twin emulation).
Mix and match both so that you hear a combination of the two sounds appearing as one huge fat "virtual" amp sound. A little L/R panning might help, too.
Experiment with various combinations of guitars / amps.
You could even mix in an acoustic for a nice effect a la Stones.
Clearer this time ?
Ask back if there are any Qs left.
BTW, what's your native language ? I'm German, so ...
Hope that helps,
susiwong

I'll traduce your post with a friend tomorrow, because with only a dictionnary, it's a little... euh... difficult.
Sorry. :(
