In your MIDI/instrument track, go to “MIDI From” and select the audio track on which the MIDI Guitar VST is loaded. Instead, load the MIDI Guitar 2 VST plugin and use the direct midi output (which is enabled by default). Please don’t use the AudioUnit with Ableton. In this video, the MIDI Guitar 2 AudioUnit is loaded and it outputs MIDI with the V-MIDI option, which works, but cause a latency overhead. Here is another video that shows the basics of using MIDI Guitar as a plugin in Ableton Live 9, but is also slightly misleading.

JAMSTIX MIDI JAM REAPER SOFTWARE
While a growing number of software developers are implementing the MPE protocol, for the programs that were built with a keyboard or pad controller in mind, the Jamstik can swap into single-channel MIDI mode, which behaves more like a simple keyboard.After downloading the latest MIDI Guitar installers from /download, you can install the standalone app and plugins.
It's a more natural playing experience catering to the guitar controller, and also enables styles like palm mute to be recognized and synthesized in a way that makes sense and feels natural. This can be used to control the loudness and/or brightness of the synth voices so they decay along with your guitar strings. The Jamstik Studio also tracks the intensity of each string's vibration over time. Paired with a compatible sound generator, this means that the performance on one string does not affect the others, allowing for greater control over the sound and a more natural response from the sound generator. In MPE mode, each string of the Jamstik Studio controls a different MIDI channel-including MIDI notes, pitch bend, and importantly, expression information. The Jamstik was built as an MPE-capable controller, which helps immensely with achieving realistic guitar performance expression.
