Applied Acoustics Systems has announced the release of Strum Electric GS-1, its new guitar track production plug-in for music producers and composers.
Strum Electric includes a collection of classic single coil- and humbucker-fitted guitars, a two-channel amplifier with spring reverb, a speaker cabinet, and effects all featured in a ready-made preset library. It also includes an elaborate voicing module which automatically voices chords played on the keyboard as a guitar player would on the fretboard, AAS says.
Techniques such as down- and up-strokes, slides and bends, hammer-ons and pull-offs, palm muting, muffled strings, and arpeggios are triggered by special strumming keys. Strum Electric is also said to ship with a MIDI loops library which provides rhythmic figures, strumming patterns, and chord progressions in various musical styles.
Pricing and Availability
Strum Electric GS-1 is available now at a retail price of $229. Strum Electric GS-1 runs on both Mac OS X and Windows, as a standalone application as well as in host sequencers supporting the VST, Audio Units, and RTAS plug-in formats.

[NAMM] AAS Strum Electric GS-1
-
Applied Acoustics Systems will be launching an electric version of its Strum Acoustic GS-1 plug-in at the 2009 Winter NAMM Show.
AAS has assured that Strum Electric GS-1 will offer the same strumming and chord detection engines as its acoustic sibling, and will be playable from a MIDI keyboard.
The body has been replaced with pickups, though, and a "flexible guitar rig" has also been added to the package.
More detail during the NAMM show special coverage on AudioFanzine, and on the Applied Acoustic website: www.applied-acoustics.com, as it gets updated.
