Ready for a fresh guitar sound without the hassle of heavy sample libraries? Introducing Suburban Guitarist – an innovative VST instrument created by Gregjazz, which completely redefines the concept of a virtual guitar. Forget about gigabytes of data – this plugin generates sound “from scratch,” offering extraordinary flexibility and realism that you won’t find in traditional samplers.
Suburban Guitarist: A Revolutionary Virtual Guitarist
Suburban Guitarist is not just another guitar plugin. It’s a breakthrough in sound modeling technology that allows you to get expressive and lively guitar performances without using any samples. This approach opens up new horizons for musicians and producers, providing an instrument that isn’t limited by pre-recorded phrases or articulations.
Whether you need a powerful rhythm section or emotional lead parts, Suburban Guitarist has appropriate modes that switch easily. This makes it a versatile solution for a wide range of music genres – from rock and blues to funk and jazz.
Key Features That Bring the Sound to Life
Developer Gregjazz has put into Suburban Guitarist a number of features that allow you to achieve incredible realism and expressiveness. Every detail is designed to imitate the nuances of playing a real guitar, giving you full control over the sound:
- No samples! Fully modeled sound for maximum flexibility.
- Lead and Rhythm modes: Easily switch between playing chords and solo parts.
- Expressive playing techniques: Includes bends, slides, and whammy bar work, controlled by the Pitch Wheel, adding emotion to the performance.
- Palm Muting: Control the degree of muting the strings to get the characteristic “muted” sound needed in many styles.
- Harmonics/Squeals: The ability to play artificial and natural harmonics to add bright accents.
- Humanization Control: A unique feature that imitates the natural, barely noticeable desynchronization between the work of the left (fretting) and right (picking) hands of the guitarist, making the performance more lively and authentic.
- Adjustable Pick Position: Change the pick’s position on the strings to affect the timbre – from softer near the fretboard to sharper near the bridge.
- Tone Control: A classic tone control that allows you to change the brightness of the sound.
- Volume Control: An easy way to control the overall volume of the instrument.
- Realistic Vibrato: Modeling natural vibrato, which adds depth and expression to the notes.
- Advanced Controller Mapping: Flexible MIDI controller assignment options for convenient and intuitive control of all plugin parameters in real-time.
With this set of features, Suburban Guitarist allows you not just to write guitar parts, but to “play” the virtual instrument, achieving a level of expression comparable to a live performance. This is especially valuable for creating realistic demo recordings, arrangements, or for adding a “live” element to electronic music.
Who is Suburban Guitarist for?
This plugin will be a valuable asset for:
- Producers looking for a flexible and realistic guitar sound without large libraries.
