General

"It sounds fake." Keyboard players must occasionally despair on hearing those words, for recreating guitar parts is tricky. After all, a keyboard is not the perfect interface for channelling string instruments. As such, MusicLab's RealStrat 3 virtual Strat is a real break-through, and a surprisingly user-friendly one at that. Playing this virtual instrument may even prove to be addictive, as it really allows you to widen your horizon as a keyboard player. RealStrat 3 sounds so good, people might mistake you for an actual guitarist!

Position playing with the MusicLab RealStrat 3 virtual strat

There was a time when sample libraries were created by sampling each note once. That might be entertaining for a while, but it won't truly convince anyone. RealStrat 3 features several recorded samples for every fret of all six strings of a guitar. Some notes can even be played on various strings - and that's the key to RealStrat 3's incredible realism. The software keeps track of the position of your playing hand, and plays the next note on the nearest available string - just like an actual guitarist would. The chosen string affects the sound of the notes you play: low strings played in high positions sound different from high strings played in low positions.

The sound

Real experience leads to realistic sound - that's RealStrat's secret. With exceptionally accurate samples and virtual pickups that can be mixed and matched at will, this virtual Strat delivers a sound that truly convinces. Apply some effects to your leads or strumming, and the illusion is complete. RealStrat 3 comes with IK Multimedia's AmpliTube 3 Custom Shop, which provides you with the sound of various guitar amplifiers.
