Distributor, Best Service, has announced the release of new MusicLabs product, RealRick, a virtual instrument which they say captures the unmistakable sound of a legendary Rickenbacker 360 electric guitar. After RealGuitar, RealStrat and RealLPC, RealRick is the 4th MusicLab virtual guitar instrument. Here's the details in their own words...
RealRick is a sample-based virtual instrument with an innovative approach to guitar sound modeling and guitar techniques emulated on a standard MIDI keyboard.
RealRick provides incredible playability based on the unique performance modes and easy-to-use keyboard layout as well as the advanced key/pedal/velocity switch system allowing a keyboardist to perform guitar parts with a whole new level of realistic expression.
RealRick covers practically all sounds, articulations, and techniques a professional guitarist can produce on his instrument, including mute, bridge mute, harmonics, pinch harmonics, unison bend, strumming, picking, chord chopping, scrapes, and much more...
