While nothing can duplicate the life experience of being in a band, virtual instrument software is getting to the point where it’s a feasible substitute for live musicians in some cases. For example, if you want a Kontakt virtual acoustic guitar, you could go for Evolution Steel Strings or Session Guitarist Strummed Acoustic. There are even more great options if you want a Kontakt electric guitar, with Virtual Guitarist IRON and Shreddage 2 being among the best. There are many more virtual instruments available out there as well.
Key Takeaways:
- When technology can do it all for someone, the author believes he doesn’t need a band with its egos and disagreements, and also the lifelong friendship it affords.
- Technology software can be one’s bandmate in creating music. Granted it won’t give you a shoulder to cry on but it gives you the advantages of a band.
- A good software acoustic guitar player is the Native Instruments’ Session Guitarist Strummed Acoustic. It helps you to play chords, articulations and just about anything a guitarist can.
“Virtual instruments are now good enough to replace real musicians. Not such good news if you want to join a band, perhaps, but great news if you want to create one… virtually.”
