The virtual guitar allows you to easily create chords by strumming all strings at once, or strumming single notes. Additionally, you can select either an acoustic or electric model and flip its orientation for right or left handed players.
Extension chords, which add an interval to basic triads, are more advanced chords often seen in jazz, funk and R&B styles.
Easy to use
Guitar chords virtual are a fantastic way to learn how to play guitar and create music. Available for both electric and acoustic guitars (some also support left handed fretboards), you can select from various string samples such as steel, nylon or drop D tunings for optimal results.
Many virtual guitars provide a pattern sequencer, enabling you to load and save a series of strummed or arpeggiated patterns for use later. While this feature may prove useful, its use may prove challenging; therefore it is wise to carefully consider your needs prior to purchasing one.
Most guitar chord virtual instruments allow users to search the name of an displayed chord by either clicking or dragging finger markers onto strings, as well as display its chord diagram which illustrates which strings are played with which fingers. Some also display a list of common chord shapes at the upper right hand corner of their screens.
Easy to learn
Yousician’s game-style progression, vibrant colours and audio recognition technology create a fun environment to help you learn guitar more quickly. It listens as you play while providing instantaneous feedback and rewarding well-played chords with points. Furthermore, Yousician deconstructs each chord into individual notes on its fretboard for easy reference – ideal for digital producers attempting to figure out how a chord should look before recording it into production software.
There is an assortment of virtual guitar chords for you to select. Some require more complex knowledge of music theory; others are easier and can be learned quickly and effortlessly. Some include both acoustic and electric guitars so that you can customize their sounds depending on your personal taste; other keyboard options allow for creating custom chords which is especially helpful if you play acoustic.
Easy to record
Recording guitar should always begin by listening to yourself and accepting any mistakes made during playback. Playback doesn’t lie and will show if there are changes required if something wasn’t recorded properly.
Recording guitar chords can be made simpler using an appropriate virtual guitar plugin. A quality acoustic guitar virtual instrument will offer open and barre chords for you to select by clicking on its strings, with an option to mute specific strings if necessary.
Chord voicings are one of the keys to crafting a realistic guitar sound, giving songs more tonal variety while making music easier to play on the fretboard. A C major chord played at third fret sounds quite differently from one played at sixth fret; WEDGE FORCE Hydro provides you with the flexibility of altering chord voicing by selecting from its Bend Type dropdown menu.
Easy to edit
Virtual guitar instruments have come a long way, yet can still sound robotic and lifeless. This course will demonstrate how to address these issues and produce high-quality guitar tracks that sound indistinguishable from the real thing. Learn various strumming patterns, how to edit chord start times of MIDI notes more realistically (editing start times of chord strummed chords), edit arpeggios so they sound natural (edit note lengths) as well as other helpful techniques and tips and tricks.
Chordly makes editing chord charts easy. Our live preview on the right also automatically refreshes, so you can see exactly how your chart will appear in Planning Center Music Stand and create PDFs of transposed charts for different keys. Our Chord Dictionary shows all underlying notes of every chord to help understand its construction and why it was selected in that position; superscript suffixes can also be added easily for easier identification.
