3. The chords are strummed, to simulate a real guitar player.

4. The Track Type for the Melody has been set to Guitar, and the MIDI file

will be saved with the Guitar Channels (11-16) preserved which preserves

the fret positions.

Note: All of these items can be customized in the Guitarist Maker, which is launched

by the [Edit...] button in the Select Guitarist dialog.

Redo Part of the Solo

Let's redo part of the solo at a higher fret position. This particular song

GIT_TEST.MGU has 6 choruses, and the last 3 choruses have a much higher

range of soloing. Let's redo that part of the solo, using a higher fret position.

We'll press the [Ch. Solo] button again, de-select the auto-set position button,

and choose the 12 position. Since we only want to regenerate this for the

choruses 4 to 6, we set the range to “Part of Song” and the range to start at

chorus 4, bar 1, and range of 96 bars. This will rewrite the solo, by first

removing the existing guitar chord solo (if any) and then generating a new one.

Technical Note: Since some of the guitarists can be assigned to strum the chords in

a delayed fashion, if you repeatedly re-generate the solo, the melody will become

more and more delayed. The solution(s) would be to choose Edit | Undo Solo prior to

re-generating the solo, or picking a Guitarist that doesn't delay the strum. The Strum

delay status is indicated on the “Info” panel of the Select Guitarist screen.

Saving the Guitar Chord Solo

Once you have generated a Guitar chord solo it becomes part of the notation

track. You can edit it like any other part by deleting/inserting notes, etc.

The solo will be saved with the song (MGU) and exported to a MIDI file, with

the string positions intact (because we use channels 11 to 16 for the Guitar part).

You can remove the solo at any time, even after the solo has been

saved/reloaded, by choosing MEL | Remove Harmony (or guitar solo) from

Melody Track.

Editing Guitarists

Guitarists can be customized using

the Guitarist Maker, which is

described elsewhere in detail and is

launched by the [Edit...] button in

the Select Guitarist dialog.
