Description
Steel Guitar PRO is a highly advanced guitar processor that combines cutting-edge realtime audio generation with a truly expressive control interface. It provides many unique guitar models, built-in amps & FX processing, MIDI control, AUv3, and wide-ranging customizability.
:: Control Surface ::
Steel Guitar PRO features a powerful yet familiar control interface. Simply touch the strings to “pick,” and drag the slide bar to modulate pitch. By enabling enhanced slide control, you can even use multiple touches to tilt the slide bar, or dampen the strings. Fretboard dimension, string spacing, and pick guard size are all configurable. A high level of resolution enables minute pitch control and realistic vibrato. Settings let you vary guitar tone, sustain and release times, touch behavior, slide bar auxiliary control, handedness, and more.
:: Guitars ::
Steel Guitar PRO provides you with an arsenal of guitars to choose from: unique examples of humbuckers, single coils, P90s, and more. Instruments include many 6 string guitars, as well as 8- and 10-string steel guitar variants. Each family of instruments comes with many tuning to choose from, but you can also create and save your own. In addition, you have up to seven virtual “pedals” to bend individual or collections of string — much like a pedal steel. The pedals can be actuated by slightly tilting the device, or via MIDI, or even with the fretting touch. All of this is configurable by the user.
:: Built-In FX Processing ::
Steel Guitar PRO incorporates a virtual signal chain where you can put amps and FX in any combination. The included dozen amps and 20 FX are all custom tuned to evoke the best tones from the guitar processor. Each amp or effect features multiple parameters to precisely modify its tone and feel. These parameters are MIDI-mappable, so that you can control them via an external device. The amp collection covers a broad spectrum from bell-like cleans to thick overdrive. The FX include many analog inspired “pedals” that range from overdrives, distortions, mods, delays, reverbs, to beyond.
:: AUv3 & MIDI ::
Steel Guitar PRO can also be used as an AUv3 MIDI plugin. We developed a custom MIDI sub-protocol so that Steel Guitar PRO and its powerful control interface can run seamlessly inside an AUv3 host. You can also use a traditional MIDI keyboard or device to play Steel Guitar PRO, which readily accommodates MIDI pitch & mod wheels, and key velocity as well.
:: Useful Features ::
Steel Guitar PRO includes a comprehensive preset management system that allows you to save, modify, and share any number of your “rigs.” The standalone app also includes a handy “tape deck” where you can record, play, loop and import/export audio. MIDI learn feature is easy and intuitive to use, but also offers deeper customization. All audio processing is done in the highest resolution, natively and without resampling at rates up to 96kHz. The fluid user interface integrates readily with many different AUv3 hosts.

Ratings and Reviews
Wow! Amazing Tone and Functionality
This app is amazing. As a pedal steel player Bm myself, I was more than ready to point out every little thing that was wrong with this app, but with every minute I spent playing around with it, and every little tweak of the tone, adjustment of the pedals or crying slide of the bar, I found myself more and more impressed. This is an actual emulator of a steel guitar, not just some silly midi sample bending app. There are a few very minor things I'd like such as a being able to set the volume curve when articulating with vertical bar gestures, and the amount of angle you want to tilt to engage the pedals, but that really is nitpicking. All in a fantastic app and the only steel guitar app I've ever felt was created by someone who knew what they were doing!
If I could give a 6th star I would.
It’s incredible
Please just give us a “virtual” fretboard such as the iFretlessBass plugin. While I appreciate the slidery thing (sorry, long time guitar player but I’ve never used one of those) I would honestly really like it if we could just play frets at different positions regardless of whether we are using a midi “plugin” or “keyboard” or whatever to control the AU. Besides, what’s wrong with “normal” guitar playing? Having both options would be great!
Regardless, this fills a niche that needed to be filled. And it fills it pretty well especially for the price tag.
A must but for guitar dudes.
Sounds fantastic!
I purchased this on my small iphone since i can’t install it on my iPad that is still running ios 13. I would really love to play this on my larger ipaf screen but i can’t upgrade that one anymore. Backwards compatibility with ios 13 would be really great if possible. I have all Yonac apps running on that ipad except for this awesome app. I can’t afford a new device. Playing on a small iphone is far from greay.
Awesome app guys! Love that you can play this with midi . Rock on 🤘
