Guitar Solo Studio: play, learn and record real guitar tones anywhere Turn your device into a full guitar studio. Guitar Solo Studio gives you ten studio-recorded guitar voices, a built-in pedalboard, real-instrument input, and everything you need to learn, jam, and produce, whether you've never held a guitar or you've been gigging for years. Ten authentic guitar voices: • Classical Guitar • Acoustic Guitar • Pop Guitar • Rock Guitar • Clean Electric • Banjo • 12-String Guitar • Lead Guitar • Electric Guitar • Jazz Guitar Built to sound real: • Full 24-fret neck on every string for scales, chords, riffs, and lead lines. • Pitch bend and expressive articulation for slides, vibrato, and bends. • Lowest possible latency, so every note responds the instant you touch it. Plug in your own guitar: Connect your electric guitar and Guitar Solo Studio becomes a portable multi-effects rig. Stack pedals, dial in input gain, and ride your output level live. No amp, no cables across the room. Shape your tone: • Nine pedals in a virtual pedalboard: overdrive, delay, chorus, reverb, flanger, equalizer, auto wah, phaser and compressor. Add and remove them to build your own rack. • Amp simulation: a full amp head with cabinet, with gain, bass, mid, treble and master. Shape your tone from clean to high gain. No amplifier needed, and no neighbours complaining. • Sound presets: seven ready-made tones (Clean, Blues, Crunch, Metal, Surf, Funk and Ambient), and save your own. Play with anything: • MIDI controller support for keyboards and pads. • Drop D tuning, one tap away, for riffs that need that low string. • Pitch transposition up to two semitones to match any backing track or singer. • Metronome to lock in your timing. Capture every idea: Record takes, loop progressions, and export finished parts to WAV, MP3, OGG, or MIDI for sharing, editing, or full production. Learn as you go: • Guided interactive lessons for beginners and advancing players. • A library of fourteen scales and every chord: major, minor, both pentatonics, harmonic and melodic minor, blues, the seven modes and phrygian dominant. • A clean, HD interface with swappable fretboard skins. Any genre, any moment: Rock, metal, blues, jazz, funk, pop, folk. Guitar Solo Studio adapts to how you play, on stage, on the couch, or on the move.
