How good is this?
Well, while nothing has reproduced guitars or string instruments perfectly, this is pretty darn good! Im a recording artist (Smite Matter) using the iPad exclusively for my published music. I own 92 music apps, of those I only installed the best and this is one of them.
Something often overlooked with guitar app is sustain, but no so much here. The sustain in 6 String is better than OMGuitar. The FX are cleaner, and don't distort nearly as much.
Playing cords is incredibly easy and life like.
Some of the reverb presets sound the same.
The delay produces unnatural clicks in it's higher settings.
All of the instruments are faithfully reproduced very well.
Again, I say nothing is perfect. But this is high quality.
It's best for playing chords, not so much with fingering.
The UI is laid out nicely with 3 different set ups. None really satisfy completely, but I can adapt.
I have been looking for a fairly deep guitar instrument app to use in my music, and I believe I have found a real winner here.
I have to say this is up there as one of the best on the iPad as far as instrument apps go. Right along the likes of ThumbJam, OMGuitar, and the instrument portions of Garage Band.
Recommended!
Pretty good
Pretty fun to play around with. It gets better as I figure out it works.
