About RealTracks...
“brilliant !”, “I'm awestruck.”, “the pedal steel is a thing of wonder”, “stunning”, “about 5 million times better than any midi implementation I've heard.”, “I must say, the pedal steel is perhaps the greatest accomplishment in the history of this brilliant program. I've been using it in a Hank Williams country shuffle style, with guitar, piano and fiddle, and even in swing grooves, the pedal steel blends in like a champ -the glisses, and volume pedal blurring any trace of 'groove' -just some emotional heights.”, “awesome addition.”, “the arpeggio harmonics are amazing and so tasteful.”, “It's stunning”

It won't be long now folks. Steel guitarists are only a mouse click away.
They'll never, I repeat NEVER!!... be able to capture the brilliant and sometimes sheer genius mistakes I often add to my performances.
I've been known to kickoff a song in the wrong key even after I've been told to right key.
Let's see a computer do that!

yes, I cock my eye when I hear the term 'humanizer' in descriptions of vst instruments.
I have about a hundred mega bytes of humanizer in my playing. |

Well in my opinion the steel samples are much better than the guitar samples. The sax samples sounded the best to me with the steel coming in 2nd.
Of course the real drums has made the biggest difference in my opinion just due to the high quality it gives the songs.

I've been playing 25 years, and those steel samples are 100% better than my playing.
No picks hitting the strings, no volume pedal accidentally momentarily backing off when the strings are picked, perfect pitch.....
The tone is not to my taste, but it is the tone that most people favour.
In the words of Private Fraser, of the classic British comedy 'Dads Army':
We're doomed......doomed I tell ya.....doomed |
