All sound you hear in this video is from built-in patches in MIDI Guitar 2. BETA14.MIDI Guitar 2, BETA14 and more...
MIDI Guitar 2 BETA 14 is now available to customers. It's a big update with a new user interface and lots of new modules and features.
Lately, Dutch guitarist
Paul Driessen has joined the Jam Origin team and Paul is developing a new family of
Deep guitar effects, which are like traditional guitar effects, yet something totally new. Deep guitar effects rely on our underlying tracking technology for profound new ways to change your tone with no loss of expressiveness and zero latency.
Two Deep effects are included: a
harmonic EQ and a versatile new effect called
Deep Expressor which offers sustain without compression, per string compression, transient/pluck control, clean hex distortion and direct harmonic access via drawbars! And we are really only just scratching the surface with Deep guitar effects here - you'll see a lot more on this front in the future.
The best way to get started is try out the new default patches. Here is a demo of
Drawbar Rock. The organ is held with a sustain pedal but you can simply use spacebar if you don't have a physical MIDI pedal setup.
BETA14 also marks the
end of the BETA testing phase. It is now feature complete and we will now focus on fixing any last bugs reported, user interface tweaks and getting the official release out as soon as we possibly can, possibly in February. Please let us know if you experience unexpected behavior. New bugs may have arisen as there are so many changes, but we'll sort it out in a timely manner. You can reply to this email.
MIDI Bass will be updated as well within a few days.
