Does BandLab Support Cute Emily Guitar?
If you're wondering “can you use Cute?Emily?Guitar on BandLab?”, here’s the scoop:
Cute Emily Guitar is a free VST/AU plugin created by Bigcat Instruments (using Karoryfer’s Emily samples)?. It emulates an Epiphone SG electric guitar, sampled dry so you’ll want to pair it with an amp simulator.
However, BandLab Studio runs entirely in your browser and does not support VST or AU plugins. So you can’t directly load Cute Emily Guitar within BandLab Studio.
How to Incorporate Cute Emily in Your BandLab Project
That doesn’t mean you can’t use its sound. Here’s how to bring Cute Emily Guitar into a BandLab workflow:
Load Cute Emily in a DAW that supports VST (e.g., Ableton Live, FL?Studio, Logic Pro).
Sequence or play your guitar parts, then apply an amp simulator (like free plugins such as AmpliTube Custom Shop or Guitar Rig Player).
Export the audio as a WAV file.
Import the WAV stem into BandLab Studio for mixing, mastering, collaboration, or adding drums and vocals.
This workaround blends high-quality guitar tones with BandLab’s collaboration and AI mastering features.
