Monster Guitar is a free virtual instrument designed to cover a wide range of music genres, including Reggae, Pop, Rock, and many styles in between. Created by Agus Hardiman as a tool for MIDI mockups during songwriting, this plugin helps transform abstract musical ideas into clearer compositions. While it is not intended to replace a real guitarist, Monster Guitar serves as a practical resource for producers seeking to add guitar elements to their projects quickly and efficiently.

The second version of Monster Guitar offers 14 presets organized into three categories: CHORD Mode, LEAD Mode, and NOTES Mode. Users can explore various strumming styles including normal, short, and long patterns, while enjoying minimal RAM consumption. The plugin features global controls such as volume, ADSR envelope, filter, and reverb, with a user-friendly interface that displays helpful information for each preset. Additionally, parameter automation is supported, allowing dynamic sound changes that adapt to the needs of any production.

Monster Guitar supports major plugin formats for Windows 64-bit DAWs, as well as Mac VST and Audio Unit (AU). Its soundbank and presets can be stored on external drives, helping optimize system resources. Regular updates and new presets are planned to expand the instrument’s capabilities over time. This makes Monster Guitar a convenient and lightweight solution for music producers looking to enhance their compositions with guitar sounds without the complexity or resource demands of more detailed guitar plugins.
