RealGuitar 6 is a sample-based virtual instrument designed to deliver authentic solo and accompaniment guitar sounds for music production. It combines two instruments: RealGuitar Classic, featuring original guitar models with enhanced capabilities, and RealGuitar Steel String, which introduces a new set of guitar samples with multiple patches and tunings. This instrument offers an intuitive keyboard layout that allows for expressive live or MIDI keyboard performances, including a wide range of articulations, strumming, fingerpicking techniques, and guitar-specific noises.

To create realistic guitar tracks, RealGuitar supports several usage modes such as live playing on a MIDI keyboard, MIDI programming within any DAW, and a built-in song sequencer for arranging complete songs by inserting chord symbols and selecting pre-recorded rhythm patterns. The extensive sample library captures every fret and string with dynamic nuances and includes various guitar-specific sounds. Its patented chord voicing technology accurately reproduces the unique sound of guitar chords across numerous types, inversions, extensions, and alterations.

RealGuitar 6 also integrates a powerful guitar effects processor with over two hundred authentic presets inspired by iconic guitar tones, enhancing realism when paired with external guitar amp simulations. Advanced control features enable detailed expression through gestures, velocity, modulation, sustain pedal, aftertouch, MIDI CC, and automation. Humanization algorithms further refine timing and dynamics to emulate the feel of an experienced session guitarist. This virtual instrument offers musicians and producers a comprehensive tool for crafting highly realistic guitar performances within their productions.
