A software instrument that plays drum parts for you. Rather than programming individual hits, you choose a style and a groove and the instrument performs a part with realistic timing, dynamics and fills. UJAM's Virtual Drummer range gives each title its own player, kit and genre.
A sample library gives you recorded notes that you assemble yourself. Virtual Guitarist takes the chords you play and generates a performance with correct voicings, strum patterns, articulations and playing noise. You are directing a player rather than placing notes.
No. You need to know your chords and your song structure. The instrument handles the technique, which is the point.
Within limits. You can change style, intensity, groove and fills, and drag MIDI out to edit further in your DAW. What you cannot do is control every note the way a piano roll would. That trade is deliberate.
Whichever instrument you cannot play. Most songwriters start with Virtual Drummer because programming convincing drums is the hardest part of demoing alone. If you already program drums confidently, Virtual Guitarist saves more time.
VST3, AU and AAX on macOS and Windows — Logic Pro, Ableton Live, Cubase, Studio One, Pro Tools, FL Studio, Reaper and Bitwig.
The parts you create with them are yours to use in commercial releases. Check the current licence terms on the individual product page, as terms differ between sample content and generated performances.
