    Great job my man. This is the only video I needed to understand what I assume most people want to know - how to create a strum sequence using this plugin without getting intimidated by the slightly complex plug-in interface.

    So good William. I have only just found you on You Tube. I am 69 years old and played bass most of my life now play a little guitar. I have had Ample Sound Taylor for a couple of years and never knew that it could do do much. I know a little music theory but you make it look easy and you are a great teacher. I hope that you continue you videos especial with the strum patterns. I am going to watch your video again for the 30th time to make sure I understand. Excellent stuff.

    Hey Dude!! I am so greatful right now!! You have opened so many doors in my creativity. I battled with this plugins. I used to make three or more tracks, with each dedicated to one chord and one pattern! I even attempted to "program" different strumming patterns with the automations. But now I am set. I did not know it was so simple!! A note triggers a chord, and a nother note triggers the patterns!! AWESOME!!! I am for ever in debt with you.

    Thank you William! (Where were you 3 years ago when I first started struggling with programming Ample Sound products?!!!) Ample products sound great - but the people at Ample assume we know way too much when they are writing their instruction manuals and documentation!!) Keep up the great work!

    • @williamknowlands9664
      @williamknowlands9664  5 років тому +2

      Thank you bthrowerr ! The instructions manuals could be indeed better. But I think it's always difficult to teach an instrument (be there a real one or a VST) without video materials haha. AmpleSound's products are really great once we know how to use them. Which is the purpose of this channel. Cheers ;)

  • @UselessVideo1
    @UselessVideo1 5 місяців тому +1

    I just bought some Amplesound guitars and have to say this is the most twisted UI ever. External (DAW) MIDI notes to trigger little sequence snippets instead of allowing multiple bars of sequence to be grouped as a patterns or in a song, is quite strange. I don't think I would have figured out hope to string more than 1 bar of strumming +chord changes together without this video. Still scratching my head a bit as my (most current) Ui is slightly difference and doesn't have an obvious place to assign the note to trigger the seq. It actually looks easier to just program one bar at a time and drag it over as midi notes into a track.

    This is very confusing. I can't read music, but I play piano by ear excellent. Is there a simple way to strum, without going in and having to precisely fix so many things? Like, I just want to play the chords on the piano and have it sound like a guitar is strumming those chords.

    • @njpromethium

  • @songsofsusannah
    @songsofsusannah 3 роки тому +2

    I'm missing a step that's probably obvious. I can create a chord in Strummer and tell it whether to strum up or down, etc, but then how do I assign that chord to a MIDI note in Piano Roll Editor, and how do I come back and create another chord for after the chord change? It's probably something really obvious that I've missed. I just can't figure out how to make it play back, and I assume it's because I don't see how to assign a chord to a given key. Maybe a step I missed at the beginning?
