Im working with AS Taylor virtual guitar and not having much luck getting it to synch with project bpm. In this video, the tutorial mentions the need to "MIDI delay compensate" about negative 50ms to get it to play on the beat, in time. It's at about the 7:30 mark of the video. I'm familiar with CW Preferences/MIDI/Playback and Recording, where you can set "Playback-Prepare Using" where you set millisecond buffers. But it's not possible to set a negative buffer. Should I be looking somewhere else to make this adjustment?? I've looked through all the Preferences settings and don't see a "MIDI Delay Compensation" setting. My strumming pattern is significantly out of time. Thank you.

Question. Does the strummer generate midi notes? If it does wouldn't it work to just drag those back a bit to sync it up? I might need to figure this out someday as my hands are slowly becoming arthritic. Electric guitar is OK but I'm slowly loosing my grip on the wider neck of my acoustic.


I don't have the Ample guitar, but I have a couple of Ample basses. They have a "riffer" module with factory riffs, and that can play tabs or import MIDI, and export tabs and riffs MIDI via drag and drop to a DAW track.


I have never observed the Ample basses being off-beat, but this post inspired me to investigate... I listened to a few Ample riffs with my CbB metronome switched on for playback and things seemed to be in sync.


In the video example provided in the OP, the delay compensation is related to the ADSR envelope of the sample being played by the Ample instrument. I looked through my Ample bass presets and noticed that they had variable sample delays (case by case) that seemed to average about 35 ms. Some presets had none, so if you are going to delay the DAW track by a fixed amount, you may need to check if any delay is already present in the Ample preset.


The MIDI dragged into the DAW track would be independent of any envelope settings in the instrument itself, as it would just be a timing issue if the instrument was playing the "attack" for the sample early or late.


Yes, the app generates MIDI notes, which you can drag into PRV for tweaking. I've done bit of that with what I'm doing. Can't really tweak (as far as I can tell; I'm new to Ample's guitars) in the program's sequencer.


Thanks for the reply. Interesting, yes. Curious that they have variable ms delays on the attacks; doesn't make sense to me. I changed mine in this instrument to zero delay. With the call for -50 ms MIDI delay, I wonder if it's not Ample's version of the Native Instrument VSTi's pointing out that note events should be just slightly before the beats, which I always do by hand.


Use a Midi track and a Simple instrument track , Put some midi data in the Midi track and make sure it's quantized to the grid. Then freeze the synth. First you can zoom in and check using the M-B-T grid. Set timeline to Milliseconds and using Aim assist to read the difference in Milliseconds. Or use Samples which is a finer scale. The important thing to watch is where the actual transient is because that's what we hear. But we are talking music here and not robots. Real music was never this tight. 4ms is not really something you can put your finger on, but 50 ms is.


Yes the one on 50 free compressors took almost 2 months overall. But I ended up with too much info so made it into a 4 part series. Then this testing Midi had me doing more testing and trying to figure stuff out than I thought too. Best thing about the process is I really learn about about Cakewalk. Like I just discovered Aim Assist doing these. How come I didn't find that 1 year ago when I needed it! You never stop learning.


Hey guys! Quick question. I am looking for a guitar VST, something with multiple sounds and effects that I can play with a keyboard. I lean towards distorted electric guitars, stadium loud, with an emphasis on vibey, film scorish type sounds. I'm not very interested in pre made samples and riffs. I wondered if you had any thoughts... what are your favorites? Heavyocity is one I was considering.


I think the Ample Guitar "engine" is one of the best but I had to stop using the ones I have because the samples, when you really investigate, are poor sounding. It's not just tuning, which can kinda be adjusted in the plugin, but also the quality of many of the string plucks is just bad.


I have found the built-in Electric Guitar software instruments to be instructive. The Sampler "DI" tone is useful. The Pedalboard and Amp plug-ins go a long way to making "keyboard playable" guitar parts.


Atlas, totally agreed. I actually have Strum, and am using it currently. However, please correct me if I'm wrong but it seems it only works with parts I play with another VST and then drop onto Strum track in the Arrange window? In other words, it doesn't seem to have sounds I can call up and play with like a normal VST, to demo the guitar sounds and settings. I have to play them on another track first. I'm sure it's me. Can you tell me how to remedy this? Thank you.


AmpleSound makes incredible sounding acoustic, electric and bass guitar VSTs. I have always been a GS Strum fan for their ability to put proper guitar voicing and strums on a keyboard. However, I was never fully satisfied with Strum voicing because is not based on actual samples. AmpleSound, on the other hand, is based on samples with detailed and extensive articulations. It makes a difference. Besides traditional guitars, check out the Amplesound Lap Steel, just incredible sounding with all the right playable articulations.


Have you been struggling to create convincing electric guitar tracks with your Ample Sound products? Or are you having trouble wrapping your mind around your product's features and capabilities? This is the course for you!
