This set provides you with 4 distinct Electric Guitar styles, 2 with a “crisp” tone, and 2 with a “fuzzy” tone, so
you're sure to find what you need for your song or section. Also included is the HardRockLA Bass style,
a syncopated bass style with a big fat tone. As a bonus, we're also throwing in the HardRockLA RealDrums style!
This style has 5 different substyle options, combined together for a total of 8 different style variations. Each
substyle was recorded at 3 different tempos, and with the superior stretching features in Band-in-a-Box, the entire
tempo spectrum in between tempos is also covered.
RealTracks Set 84: Lite Pop
This set features 12-string Acoustic Guitar RealTracks styles as well as 3 Pop Piano styles. The 12-string Acoustic
Guitar provides a beautifully full sound which works great on its own, or in the context of a full band. There are two
of these styles, one picking, and the other strumming, both at a slow ballad tempo. Additionally, we also include a
style that uses the picking for the “a” section of your song, and strumming for the “b” section. The 3 Pop Piano
styles continue our collection of solo-accompaniment piano styles. Two of the styles embody the melodic
California sound, one a slow ballad, the other an upbeat energetic style. The third style is a flowing melodically
arpeggiated style.
RealTracks Set 85: Rockin' Bass
This set features two classic Brit-Rock basses, a heavily scooped and distorted thrash bass, and a deep rockin' bass
that turns out pulsing eighth notes. You can view tab and notation for every style in this set in Band-in-a-Box or
RealBand. The wide range of tempos ensures that you'll have a rockin' bass for every occasion.
RealTracks Set 86: Blues Rock
Three unique and driving guitar styles are included: two with a crisp, unrelenting single-coil tone (which can be
linked together as an A/B substyle) and one with a low, twangy fuzz tone. Also included is a dark-toned blues rock
bass that syncs up nicely to the guitar styles. All of these styles are equipped with RealCharts, which means that
even though you're listening to actual audio recordings of real musicians, you can see the notes they're playing on
the on-screen fretboards, in TAB, in standard notation, and on the on-screen piano keyboard. Our unique stretch
methods insure that you're covered for a range of tempos and all twelve keys.
RealTracks Set 87: Electric For All Occasions
This set offers an extensive selection of bright guitar sounds for all occasions. At each of the three tempos, we
provide you with both clean and slightly distorted guitar tones. Plus you also have control over the particular texture
of the guitars. All of the styles were recorded with both open chords, if you want a brighter sound, and barre chords,
if you want a slightly more muted effect. All styles play any chord in any key, and our stretch methods insure that
all in-between tempos are covered! All of these styles also come complete with notation and tablature.
