The song builder is available in chord mode or in patterns mode.
You can use set all chords using the first menu, it will put the same chord on all of the 12 notes.
The song presets are a set of predefined songs with the right chord progressions, you can change the root if
needed and the progression is detailed under song info.
The mode presets is a list of most music modes and their corresponding chord progressions, you can change
the root of needed.
You can now change the type of each chord along with its root. So it makes it easy to play songs that have
different chords for the same root note.
When selecting one of the presets, some keys will appear in red and the corresponding chord will be a "5th".
This means that there is no "valid" chord for this note in the selected song or scale. You can of course set each
chord manually by clicking on them and selecting its kind, even starting from a preset.
Solo mode, automatic hand
position
The solo mode is very simple, and is suited to play
melodies. It uses a smart hand position system that
decides for you where a real guitarist would put his
hand and which string he would play. A piano only
has one middle C for example, but a guitar offers a
few different options and our script will decide it for
you. 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.
You also have access to key switches to play palm
mutes, harmonics (flageolets) or even percussion
sounds and control the legato engine.
The legato mode controls which sample will be triggered when you play legato notes on your keyboard, for
example press C2 and then C#2 without depressing C2.
Hammer , hammer on and pull-off samples will be triggered.
Slide will trigger slide up and slide down samples.
Legato will trigger regular sustain samples but will still stop the first played note.
Off deactivates the legato function.
The legato distance controls the interval in which the legato function is active.
The slide speed is active only when the Slide legato mode is selected and controls the speed of the slide.
