Is the best A-List of all, I hope your brothers are upgraded to this one.

FWIW, the desync when moving the playhead is stated in the manual: as the device is tempo based, it cannot keep being in sync when you're desyncing it manually (it wouldn't make sense). In the same way, I think your muting problem comes from the fact that when style and chord changes happen, they have to start at the exact same time; the slightest shift, even by a tick, will prevent it from syncing correctly. The solution is to quantize both note starts and note lengths.artotaku wrote:To me the guitar sounds very clean and hifi and - as others have mentioned - better than A-List Acoustic and Electric Guitarist that I also have.
There are some issues/bugs with the sequencer though. It does not always sync correctly when the playhead is moved and playing is restarted. Another issue I noticed is when the style phrases are changed all eighth or quarter note while the chords are triggered it arbitrarily mutes.
Good to know, thanks. Yes, the notes are all legato and not in sync with the phrase changes. I reread the passage in the manual and it makes sense now.WongoTheSane wrote:FWIW, the desync when moving the playhead is stated in the manual: as the device is tempo based, it cannot keep being in sync when you're desyncing it manually (it wouldn't make sense).

Regarding the second issue I could solve it by choosing another phrase for the last note.
Wow that's very impressive. I really dig your track too - it got a Silent Hill/dark movie soundtrack vibe.artotaku wrote:I´m no guitar player and basically have no clue about it but this is is what I came up with:

Hey! Real nice demonstration of those RE's! Sounds really goodWongoTheSane wrote:Agreed. Here's one ballad I made with Fingerpicking Nylon. Also includes Acoustic Guitarist, a bit of Electric Guitarist Power Chords, a Radical Keys, and an upright bass and brushes from the Reason 9 sound bank:arqui wrote:I would like this post to talk about the product and not the sales policies that would be elsewhere, sorry
...and I think it's a fantastic device. It would have taken me hours upon hours of comping if I had tried to do this on my IRL guitar.
Dang! That's also nice! Great examplesartotaku wrote:I´m no guitar player and basically have no clue about it but this is is what I came up with:

Hey thanks man!SA Studio wrote:Hey! Real nice demonstration of those RE's! Sounds really good
Yes, both Acoustic Guitarist and PowerChords have the same problem. Now that they have the correct code, it should be easy to implement it and push a quick upgrade...joeyluck wrote:Looks like they fixed the click/hit area of the keys for this one. Hoping they fix the others soon!
I had the issue confirmed for Pop Chords by Propellerhead Support back in September...
Very hard to use the interactive keyboard display on that one (and probably the others still)

Maybe a bit too expensive if you already own the other A-List guitarist. Or is there a discount?
May you upload a video to see al the capabilities of this RE?arqui wrote:Is the best A-List of all, I hope your brothers are upgraded to this one.
