Compared to the MIDI Guitar plugin package

MIDI Guitar for GarageBand has the following limitations compared to the MIDI Guitar plugin package:

  • It doesn’t come as a plugin, and thus for recording it has a latency overhead compared to the MIDI Guitar plugin package.
  • It doesn’t have MIDI input controls and MIDI Learn, so you can’t use a MIDI pedal or floorboard to control it.
  • It lacks some advanced features, like aftertouch and MIDI Machines..
  • It will host synths and virtual instruments in AudioUnit format only.
  • It doesn’t load external impulse responses for cabinet and reverb simulations.
