The actual guitar player has been transformed into a step sequencer system with a huge level of customisation when it comes to chords or fingering patterns and a detailed control over authentic nuance and expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"xch-heading\"\u003eThe Sequencers\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003eThe Patterns page in the centre is actually very easy to use. On 16 steps you can determine if a chord is triggered, which strings are played and if the strum goes up- or downward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003eEach string can be played individually at any time, guaranteeing gigantic arpeggios, nuanced metal riffs are also easily done. The damp- and deadnotes make it funky and lively.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003eThe lower lanes are where you can define the chord sequences. Select a root note, choose one of 12 different chord types, each available in three fingering variations and use the \"step-repeat\" for longer patterns. You can also create up to 24 user chords (incl. impossible chords) by clicking on the fretboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"xch-heading\"\u003eThe Human Touch\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003eThe \"Animations\" page lets you program extra movements for each of the mechanical \"fingers\" on the fretboard. A finger can be moved up or down by one, two or three semitones per step, to enrich chords with harmonic elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003eThe \"Action Section\" offers the means for immediate intervention. Loop parts with a press of a button, include dead- or damp notes, half tempo works as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"xch-heading\"\u003eThe Guitars\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003eThree different guitars are built in: Fender's Stratocaster and Telecaster are included, along with a Duesenberg Starplayer Special. The Starplayer exists in a \"Bright\" and \"Normal\" version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003eEach of these beautiful six-strings was recorded with 2,000 samples. Extensive sets of fretted notes and open strings have been sampled, each one repeated several times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003eThe \"round robin\" function can alternate the playback of different samples. In Random mode, a sample is selected at random from the available pool for the note triggered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"xch-heading\"\u003eAmps and Effects\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003eTwo effect-units with 10 effects altogether provide the colors you are looking for. FX1 specializes in modulation effects, including a very nice Chorus, a throaty Phaser, and \"Phase Wah\" and \"Auto Wah\" effects. FX2 does classic delays and reverbs, and a reverse?buffer delay effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003eTwo wonderful sounding amp models are available as well as a direct out mode for your favorite amp-emulator-software.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003eAnd there’s the Wah-Wah pedal. This is more sophisticated than the average guitar stomp-box, with an integral, variable?rate LFO to sweep the effect back and forth (this can be deactivated, and a MIDI controller assigned for manual control). The LFO can be set to retrigger with input signals above a given threshold (another way of producing \"auto?wah\" effects), and Max and Min controls allow you to set the upper and lower boundaries of the effect's sweep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"xch-heading\"\u003eSounds \u0026amp; Presets\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003ePresets are sub-divided into four categories: Global, Sound, Pattern and Chord.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003eSound presets store settings such as the guitar type and selected effects. Pattern presets store the strumming and picking patterns, while Chord presets store chord changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003eSelecting a Global preset automatically loads the matching presets in the other three categories. However, you can mix and match the different categories, combining the chord progression from one preset with the picking from another, and the effects settings from still another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-paragraph\"\u003eUser presets of all four types can be created and saved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-product__notes\"\u003eUnrivalled Functionality\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"xch-product__features\"\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"xch-heading xch-heading--main xch-product__features\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"xch-features__list\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"xch-feature\"\u003eFour Electric Guitars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"xch-feature\"\u003eMore than 2,000 Samples for each Sixstring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"xch-feature\"\u003eControl over Strum, Chords \u0026amp; Song Structures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"xch-feature\"\u003eAction Section for real-time Control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"xch-feature\"\u003eSlides, Vibratos or Portamentos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"xch-feature\"\u003eWarm Amps and Direct-Out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"xch-feature\"\u003e10 Effects plus Wahwah Pedal \u0026amp; Talkmode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"xch-feature\"\u003eMute or De-tune individual Strings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"xch-product__requirements\"\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"xch-heading xch-heading--main\"\u003eTech Specs\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"xch-requirements__wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"xch-requirements\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-requirement__os\"\u003eMAC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr class=\"xch-os__border\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-os__details\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"xch-os__name\"\u003eOS X\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"xch-os__version\"\u003eRequires macOS 10.13 or higher\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch_requirement__plugins\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"xch_requirement__plugins--label\"\u003ePlugins\u003c\/span\u003e:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"xch_requirement__plugins--value\"\u003eVST-2, VST-3, AU, AAX, STAND-ALONE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"xch-requirements\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-requirement__os\"\u003eWINDOWS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr class=\"xch-os__border\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch-os__details\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"xch-os__name\"\u003eWindows\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"xch-os__version\"\u003eRequires Windows 7 or higher\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"xch_requirement__plugins\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"xch_requirement__plugins--label\"\u003ePlugins\u003c\/span\u003e:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"xch_requirement__plugins--value\"\u003eVST-2, VST-3, AAX, STAND-ALONE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"xch_product__videos\"\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"xch-heading xch-heading--main\"\u003eAdditional Media\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"xch_videos\"\u003e\n\u003ciframe data-old=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=828SfZ4ctgk\" width=\"300px\" class=\"xch_video\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/828SfZ4ctgk\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"300px\" class=\"xch_video\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cetrCr43508\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"300px\" class=\"xch_video\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nAx3QaHU_nY\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"300px\" class=\"xch_video\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gPkfIoH7Ugc\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"SugarBytes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52808959492385,"sku":"1433-35","price":197.1,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0044\/1502\/9317\/files\/sugar-bytes-guitarist.jpg?v=1780896909","url":"https:\/\/koalaaudio.com.au\/products\/sugar-bytes-guitarist","provider":"Koala Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
