Hi Tributeman!
I absolutely agree that a bunch more guitar solo realstyles would be great. The ones that are already there are brilliant but I feel like I have exhausted their possibilities (even using comp'd multiple takes and editing the results with Melodyne) and it would be great to see some new ones.

RT's are, however, difficult and time consuming to produce and I suspect that lead instrument tracks are harder to produce than rhythm instruments tracks. I and one or two others have posted suggestions for 'motif' based lead guitar RTs which would just provide hook type melodies rather than a full complex lead line. I think that these may be a bit easier to put together.

On the other hand, there are also many popular genres of music which don't yet have any RT rhythm tracks (Reggae, Funk, Motown, Punk, Indie Rock) and I guess that, if pushed, I would plump for some of those rather than more lead guitars (but it would be a tough choice - I would prefer both!).

I guess that we have to be patient and keep lobbying via the wishlists.

One thing that has been niggling me is that the wishlist forums (and in particular the styles wishlist) appear to be much less utilised than this general forum (the posts on page one of the styles wishlist have been there forever). Given this general inactivity I do wonder how often PG monitor that forum and how seriously they take it. Maybe we should be more active in posting to it?

Regards, Aubrey
