After months of research, ClassicGuitar 2.0 has turned not just an update but a whole new library with new samples, new technology and new scripts:
STRUM SPEED allows you to adjust the speed of the strum, select the direction, only upstrokes or downstroke. There is also an AUTO function. AUTO allows you to play freely chords, An intelligent algorhythm takes care for you to switch automatically to Upstrokes.
STRUM With these 5 buttons you can play a guitar technique called Pluck&Chuck. It is essentially adding muted notes to your strumming to add a more percussive sound to your guitar
STRUM NOISES This is the best part! With the Strum Noises you’ve got separated strum noise samples from the notes. Each key has its own strum noise in multi layer and you can control the volume, speed, tune, the color and the stereo image of the strum noises. Seems to strum a real guitar
TRUE LEGATO ClassicGuitar 2.0 uses TRUE LEGATO. You can play Half Tone legato, tone legato, Trills, Octave legato and 7th legato. In addiction to this the legato allows you to play also Slide Up and Slide Down articulations.just but playing legato 3 or more notes. Watch the video
LATCH MODE is a sort of sustain pedal on steroids! You play a key or a chord and the notes remain sustained and it just like when the sustain pedal is down ( active ). You don't need the sustain pedal!

$69 for new customers, $39 if you upgrade from classical Guitar 1.0.

I just sent Andrea my $39 upgrade. Sounds good, and have always been happy with his work.

There is something off about this though. Even when you bypass all FX it sounds effected. Andrea is aware of it and will have an update soon.

Just about to install this. What did you mean by "off", Jay? Guess i will soon find out, but if something is wrong why does it sound so good in the demos when Andrea is playing it?

@ Larry, yes.
@ Frank, Like I said, even with FX bypassed it sounds like there are FX. I sent him an mp3 with the EXS24 nylon guitar, the one from the Kontakt Factory library and his and he heard what I meant right away and knew what it was and said it's an easy fix.

The one thing I heard was what sounded like unnaturally long releases.

Okay, so here’s what I’m hearing....definitely a bit different than what I should be hearing (based on his .aiff file)
My test file has 3 sections:
a) Andrea’s aiff file of “All Notes”
b) Andrea’s MIDI file of “All Notes” playing the guitar ‘right out of the box’ but Effects OFF
c) Andrea’s MIDI file of “All Notes” playing the guitar ‘right out of the box’ and Effects ON
You can listen to the wav or mp3 file, whichever you prefer
