Best Acoustic Guitar VST?

MusicLab RealGuitar is a great acoustic guitar one.

BTW, all these threads could have been consolidated into one -- there's no need to spam the forum with multiple threads, especially when you pretty much already asked the same question the other day...

RealGuitar by MusicLab is #1 by far!!!

I had an accident and could no longer play guitar. :-(. I missed having guitar on my tracks, especially acoustic accompaniment and riffs. I tried using my synths, but they sounded like synths! I needed something real — something human! Waiting for friends to come over and play parts for me became inconvenient and embarrassing. I needed to find a way to lay down tracks on my own. I needed a virtual guitarist! I went on a mission, buying and trying nearly every guitar library ever made. A couple of them weren't bad, but most of them left me cold or frustrated. I was tired of filling my hard drive with thousands and thousands of samples that were packaged in a non-user friendly interface. The last thing I wanted to do was spend more years learning complicated key-switches. By the time I got a track down, the inspiration was lost. I was discouraged and frustrated until I tried MusicLab's RealGuitar. It's fantastic!!

The interface is neat, clean, and fun! I'm a visual person, and I love seeing the notes on the virtual neck. The way the keyboard is laid out is intelligent, giving total control over the type of strum, fret noise, slide, tremolo, and all the other little squeaks and articulations. The strum engine is a snap to work with and as powerful as you need it to be. I think they call it the "Struminator." The built-in rhythmic patterns usually give me exactly what I need, and if not . . . I can simply make adjustments or create my own patterns. All in all, RealGuitar is easy to use, sounds realistic, and sits perfectly in the mix. This is the first sample-based virtual guitar plug-in I've found that truly emulates the real thing. I've got pretty good ears and most of the time I cannot tell if it's real or RealGuitar. I feel like I'm playing again! Thank you, MusicLab, for creating such a great product. :-). I'm saving up to buy RealStrat and/or RealLPC!

Real talk though. Get the real thing. Little more money wise. About the same learning curve. VSTs are a phase that can easily get broken. You can get a electric guitar for like $200 - $300. All of the vsts sound fake ass hell. There isn't one. Plus a real guitar breaks you out of the normal routine of composing. You get the real dynamics because you playing it for real. And if you don't have a keyboard...(or one with good keybed) you still out of luck because you won't be able to play them as if you playing a real guitar. Unless you have some kind of a chord humanizing quantizer program (if that exist).

But if you just have to stay in the box........nothing beats this....NOTHING!



Grab some live instrument loops and move them around.

Giving it out, not trying to charge for it. Well I was extending those to Tommy Zai for the time being, he seemed like a good dude in need of some free vst's. If he doesn't want them then they're yours for sure. They are fun to play around with but you can't really touch the real thing (a guitar).

Meanwhile, I own a genuine fender bass and strat, but I rarely use those programs anymore. Also glad I picked up some real instruments because it certainly helps with the production process as well.

Free is still an option. If you have better advice give it. This community is all about helping people, not tearing them down.

True, but numerous attempts at promoting your product seems a bit much. Sorta like those annoying pop-ups that come on your screen when you surf the net. Kinda funny to me lol. That said, Sampletank is a beast though.
