Guitar players voice chords differently, strumming is not easily reproduced on a keyboard, and guitar players use all sort of techniques such as palm muting, scratching and sliding simply not available on a keyboard. Strum GS-2 now does all of this for you!
Features include:
- Standalone operation for quick jams and experimentations.
- Real-time control over any parameters via your MIDI controller knobs, faders, and switches.
- MIDI clock, tap, and host tempo synchronization for effects and modulations.
- Relaxed editing with unlimited undo/redo capability.
Strum GS-2 is available to PC and Mac users (VST2, AU, AAX and RTAS).
