	1. About the program


RealStrat is a sample-based virtual instrument with an innovative approach to guitar sound modeling and guitar part performing on keyboard. It can be used as VSTi plug-in with any host application supporting VST 2.0, as well as a standalone version.

The true power of RealStrat lies in 3 brand new technologies incorporated in this innovative guitar performance tool:

1. New multi-channel layering technology, incorporating a custom library of specially recorded samples taken from every fret of all 6 strings of a real guitar.

2. The unique Floating Fret Position technology, which imitates change of fret position of a guitarist's hand on the neck. This gives you the possibility of playing on up to 104 guitar frets using just 43 keys of a standard keyboard!

3. Our original Guitar Touch technology letting you easily imitate basic guitar techniques (strumming, plucking, sliding, bending, muting, etc..), using standard MIDI keyboard and MIDI controllers, such as Pitch Bender, Modulation Wheel, Sustain Pedal, Aftertouch.

These technologies allow to closely emulate live guitar sound and techniques, letting you perform guitar parts with a whole new level of realistic expression.

	3. Installation


Installing RealStrat PC version

Double-click RealStrat installer and follow the on-screen instructions.

At the end of installation process RealStrat Bank Manager will open and extract sound bank optimized for particular sample rate which allows using Quick Load technology.

In RealStrat Bank Manager dialog check the appropriate sample rate box you normally use in your audio work, and click "Select" to select the destination directory for bank installation. Click Apply button to start sound bank extracting. Close Bank Manager when sound bank installation is completed. Note, that higher sample rate value will install larger target sound bank.

Important! If Bank Manager window doesn't open automatically during installation process you have to run it manually from Start menu->Program Files->MusicLab->RealStrat, or alternatively go to RealStrat installation folder (by default: C:\Program Files\MusicLab\RealStrat) and double click StgMan.exe file.

Note, that if you want to change sample rate for your audio work you have to run RealStrat Bank Manager and create sound bank optimized for the new sample rate value.

In case your VSTplugins folder is not registered correctly RealStrat installer will not automatically install RealStrat.dll there. So to let your VST host "find" RealStrat you have to manually copy RealStrat.dll from RealStrat installation folder to your VSTplugins directory.
