Thanks Kevin,I think I have all the info I need now to get this up and running. I'll let you know about the Parameter/value list if and when I get it done.

The fact is, that while I like Real Guitar, I haven't used it much because I've been involved in other projects. In fact, I've kind of forgotten what little I learned about it when I saw it at NAMM last year. I use it he vision I have to choose a guitar patch and a fret position. I think I programmed a couple of keys outside the playing range to activate a few frequently used key switches. Other than that, I haven't touched the thing in months. I don't mean to be unhelpful. When I get around to it, I'll dig in again and see what else I remember. I don't have DirectXer. I downloaded a demo version on my laptop some years ago and haven't bought a copy for my DAW. I was happy to hear that DirectXer has a positive impact on the use of Ultimate Guitar. It doesn't do much for many of the graphically based soft synths I currently own and that's why I don't have a copy.

I think that's a fair trade, and it'll help me work up a better document. Do you use the realGuitar GUI interface, or a directized generic interface? How do you select your guitar patches? Don't worry about giving too long or involved an answer.----- Original Message ----- From: "Kevin L.

And, if you use the interface, you can select the patch, but no parameters are exposed. Such fun! Solution: each parameter has a corresponding MIDI controller number assigned to it, and the controller values set that parameter to its various values. So, by loading up controller events in a sequence with the values set, then playing the sequence to RealGuitar, it has the same effectassetting the parameters from the directized generic interface. Itskindof like using a batch file to change multiple settings in one step. MusicLabs was good enough to publish a map of parameter/MIDI controller numbers, but not the corresponding controller values for the parameter settings. using the directizer generic interface, and going one by one thru the 85 parameters(I see I'm in for a lot of grunt work here), a list of parameter/settings can be compiled and used to get around this pain in the neck. Brian, or anyone who uses RealGuitar, please spare me the trouble I've cut out for myself and tell me there's an easier way;-) This synth is so darn good, its worth the effort--but please... isn't there another way? ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
