In the dropdown “Guitar Chord Types to Use” combo
box, set the type of chords to use: Jazz, Pop, Folk, Half
Note (sax), Ukulele, Mandolin, 5-string Banjo or
alternate guitar tunings.
Set the complexity of the chords to use. These can be single chords, chords with variations, inversions, and chord
“walking” patterns. If you want a simple guitar style, set the first one to 100%, and the rest to 0%.
Set the strum speed and fret range that should be played on the guitar.
The Guitar styles have an option to keep the same chord for the whole pattern
when using databases that have changing chords within the pattern. If set, databases that have changing chords like
the “Half Note (sax)” chords will only use the first chord in the pattern.
Exit the dialog and record a guitar pattern using Guitar Macro notes.
When the recording of the pattern finishes, set “OK to use Macros” and “Guitar
Macros“ to Yes.
Save the style, using the convention of putting an exclamation (!)somewhere in the
name (e.g., as the first character in the filename) to indicate that it is an intelligent guitar style.
