Interface and Parameters The GD-6 Acoustic Guitar is based on a Guild D-40 custom edition electro-acoustic guitar. It is now in V2 and the script was updated to contain the same features as the Sunbird library. We recorded it with a pair of microphones and using the built in pickup.

D#4 is the strum up muted, E4, F4, G4, A4, B4 and C5 (the white keys) are for the 6 different strings, F#4 triggers the chord but shifted from the Chord Slide value, G#4 stops the chord and play a hand mute sample, A#4 stops the chord and plays slide down samples, A small chord panel displays the chord that you are playing as well as the octave it is in.

if you enable it, the E chord will stay an E chord, but the engine will look for an alternate position to play it starting from the capo. The Auto Voicing feature enables the different guitar chord positions depending on the octave in which it is played.

We even made the sharing of these patterns easy, just save them and send them to other users, the database can only grow! Make sure that you check the to get an idea of how it works. The Pattern Maker is an improved step sequencer made especially for guitar strumming. Each fret represents a quarter note and you can either add a whole chord or just a single string (if the link icon is unselected).

You can of course deactivate it and use only the first hand position if you want. The GD-6 acoustic guitar features our powerful legato engine that will automatically trigger legato, hammer ons, pull offs, or slides and the legato distance will define the maximum interval in which the legato will apply.
