.TH GUITARIX "1" "October 2012" "SlackBuilds.org" "User Commands"
.SH NAME
guitarix \- guitar amp simulator and effects processor
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B guitarix
.RI [ options ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B Guitarix
is a rock guitar amplifier for Jack (Jack Audio Connection Kit) with one input
and two outputs. It is designed to get nice trash/metal/rock guitar sounds.
Guitarix comes with a GTK+ graphical user interface and a set of LADSPA
plugins. This manual page describes the GTK+ interface.
.PP
Guitarix provides one JACK input port and two JACK output ports.
Controls for bass, treble, gain, compressor, preamp, balance, distortion,
freeverb, crybaby (wah) and echo are available. A fixed resonator is
used when distortion is disabled. To modify the sound 'pressure', you
can use the feedback and feedforward sliders.
.PP
Guitarix includes an experimental tuner and a JACK MIDI output port
with 3 channels. They are fed by a mix from a pitch tracker and a
beat detector. You can pitch the octave (2 octaves up or down), choose the
MIDI channel, the MIDI program, the velocity and the sensitiviy, which
translates into how fast the note will read after the beat detector
emits a signal. Values for the beat detector can be set for all
channels.
