Gtak Tour
Built in pedal control allows you to control which instrument plays using an MIDI foot pedal (or the built in pedal of your guitar to MIDI converter). There are hold and sustain foot pedal modes allowing you to set one instrument playing while you solo over the top. Kontakt's pads, arpeggiators and drum machines give endless possibilities.
Gtak can emulate most of pedal modes provided by Guitar to MIDI converters. You can choose whether the action is take when the pedal is up or when it is down, assuming "when up" is selected:
| Pedal Mode | Pedal Down | Pedal Up |
|---|---|---|
| Hold | Plays normally | Sustains all exisiting notes, no new notes sound. |
| Sustain | Plays normally | Sustains notes, new notes sound. |
| Hold+Sustain | Holds | Sustains |
| Mute | Plays normally | No notes are sounded. |
The instrument can also be muted by a range of CCs. This allows you to have multiple solo and backing instruments with only one responding to the guitar at a time.
New: Gtak4 for Kontakt4
Reviews
... Gtak offers a lifeline to Kontakt-based MIDI guitar users. Given its low cost ... anyone who plays MIDI guitar and who owns Kontakt 3 would do well to invest.

"if you own a MIDI guitar and you use Kontakt 3, or if you’re a MIDI guitarist looking for a software sampler, you’d be crazy to overlook this very fortuitous pairing. Gtak and Kontakt 3 are an unbeatable combination"
