Overview

Jangle and chime, from the keyboard.

RealRick 6 is a sample-based Rickenbacker electric, recorded dry from the pickups fret by fret, so you choose the amp: over 200 MusicLab presets for the bundled Guitarix are included, or load your own VST3 processor. Patches cover the 6-string and two 12-string tunings, including a stereo version modelled on Rick-O-Sound. Chord recognition across 30 chord types turns what you play on a keyboard into guitar voicings, while key switches, pedal and velocity add bends, slides and harmonics. It runs standalone or in a DAW, including Pro Tools 2021–2026 via AAX.
