Guitar Simulator B

Instruments are the building blocks of music. However, using a computer application, there might be no need to use a real instrument in order to play, or record a tune. Guitar Simulator B is a small, lightweight application which lets you play chords, or notes, on various instruments, in spite of its name.

The application only features a main window, where everything will happen. You are given a guitar fretboard, and several options to make use of. The way in which you use its features is simple, you place notes on the fretboard, and choose at what speed they should be played. However, every time you want to hear the certain tune, you need to select the speed, with no option to just repeat.

Another way to get sound out of the application is by playing chords. Doing so will bring up several more options, that after you are done selecting, will automatically place notes on your fretboard.

Only after choosing to play chords will you have access to a large pallet of instruments to pick from. You will only be able to play the selected chords though, wanting to play something else leaving you with the default instrument, which is displayed nowhere on screen, unless you get access to the before mentioned pallet.

There is also a “Save” button however, it does not seem to have any use, because it would have made for a more efficient application to be able to save sounds, using them for various musical projects.

Taking everything into consideration we can say that Guitar Simulator B offers little variety, only creating an illusion of a simulator. In spite of its large number of instruments you can gain access to, it will only keep you listening to a few tunes.
