The RealEight in Action

RealEight is 8-string sample-based electric guitar virtual instrument.

RealEight provides incredible playability based on easy-to-use keyboard layout as well as the advanced key/pedal/velocity switch system allowing a keyboardist to perform guitar parts with a whole new level of realistic expression.

RealEight covers practically all sounds, articulations, and techniques a professional guitarist can produce on his 8-string electric guitar, including  mute, bridge mute, harmonics, pinch harmonics, sliding, scraping, etc...

24-bit high quality dry samples recorded directly from pick-ups let you easily create any desired guitar sound using your favorite amplifier simulator.

RealEight innovations:

• Incredibly deep sound covering huge 5-octave note range (8 strings, 24 frets)!
• Ready-to-use Double Track and Quad Track patches with a single MIDI input
• 30+ authentic guitar articulations and effects
• Advanced Humanize section allowing to add realism to the performance both live and step-recorded in a MIDI track
• Baritone mode turning RealEight into 7-string baritone guitar (tuning F#-B-E-A-D-f#-b)
• Bass mode lowering the pitch of all strings to Bass guitar tuning
