if the sustain pedal is pressed). ‘Enhanced AI chords + singles’, means
that each new single note or chord mutes the last played single note or
chord. But the last played single note or chord will be held as long as
you press the sustain pedal.
4.10 Guitar Chords ELECTRI6ITY can automatically translate keyboard-
voiced chords into guitar-voiced chords. You can turn this feature on or
off here. You can switch to ‘Detect Guitar Chords (extended range)’
which means that there will be up to 5 variations of each chord
depending on the octave you play the chord in, while standard range
means up to 3 variations depending on the octave. If you turn ‘Guitar
Chords’ your chords aren’t extended to guitar chords, but of course are
still transferred to the best fitting position on the virtual fretboard.
4.11 Guitar Chords | Minimum Keys The ELECTRI6ITY guitar chord
engine detects ‘shortcuts’ for common chords. If you want to use these
‘shortcuts’ (where you can leave out optional fifths or thirds for
example) you can switch to a minimum of two keys. The default value
for the guitar chord detection is three notes.
4.12 Guitar Chords | Display Changes the way the chord names are
displayed (either F# or Gb for example). Default setting is ‘Sharp’.
4.13 Power Chords You can enable or disable the power chord
detection here. You can also add an automatic octave to each power
chord here, so if you play ‘C2, G2’ the engine will play a power chord
‘C2, G2, C3’. Default is ‘On’.
4.14 Switch Sustain To Hammer On/Pull Off If you play fast solos on a
guitar, you most likely won’t pick every note. Instead you will switch to
Hammer Ons and Pull Offs from time to time in faster passages.
ELECTRI6ITY can emulate this behavior and automatically switches to
Hammer Ons and Pull Offs if the artificial intelligence thinks it will sound
better. It works in the ‘muted<->sustain’ articulation (which is the
default when loading ELECTRI6ITY) and in the ‘muted<->half muted’
articulation.
4.15 Switch Sustain To Hammer On/Pull Off | Threshold You can
change the threshold for the Hammer On/Pull Off switch here. If you
play faster than the threshold, a Hammer On/Pull Off is played when
possible.
4.16 Muted Tightness You can change the way palm muted notes are
played here. Tighter means, you add more pressure with your palm and
the notes will get shorter while more open means that you play with
less pressure. Different settings may be appropriate for different songs
