Hey there
Took a sec to try what you wanted:
So as you see I first selected C tuning, then dropped more with the tune knob -to Ab.
At first glimpse I'd say it's ok - I even dropped it lower, and sounds acceptable.. Didn't try with DI, just a couple of 'amp'd' distorted patches
First of all, I wouldn't use this to replace a guitar recording - if you want to record guitar, then
play a guitar!
I got mine because I wanted to write down midi stuff on the fly - I forget and lose some good ideas constantly and find myself transcribing me afterwards
. For me it's useful although I could have settled for just a fretboard view on Sonar, and regular midi..
I guess it could be helpful also for throwing in ideas for your solos, but I haven't tried that yet.
Couple of things.. note the patches take a while to load and are heavy on RAM (I killed half the instrument on that graphic)
Also, even if you're a good piano player this 'instrument' has quite a learning curve -at first it will very much
sound like a keyboard -and with no decay whatsoever-, so be prepared to spend some
serious time with it if you get it
Hope it helps
