Revitar Guitar VSTi Updated to Version 1.1
March 24, 2003
CutterMusic has released version 1.1 of Revitar, a VST guitar synthesizer. Revitar is capable of producing a wide range of guitar sounds from acoustic to slap bass. Revitar employs string simulation software to model the position, velocity and momentum of 120 points along each guitar string 44,100 times a second. This string simulation is capable of modeling sympathetic resonance, slap effects, pluck position and vibrato along with many others. All of this is done without the use of sound samples, so no two notes sound exactly alike.
For ease of use, a chord section is included so that entire chords can be played with a single keystroke. Nine types of chords may be chosen from, along with the rate and direction from which to strum the chord. For solos, a mono switch can also be used to play all notes on the same string.
New for version 1.1 are parameters to control the string type and the chord voicing. The string type varies the texture of the string from round wound, like a standard steel guitar string, to one that is flat round like a stand up bass. The chord voicing adjusts the spacing of the notes within the chord. Three settings are available: close, open 1 and open 2.
Revitar is for PCs only. Up to four strings can be simulated at one time. Revitar has full MIDI control.
Revitar 1.1 costs $49.00
