Remember this old thread?:

http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic ... c&start=15

Remember how some of you complained that it couldn't be done in real time? Well, I just figured out how to do this this realtime!: http://shup.com/Shup/38658/synth-guitar.mp3

It's going to take me a while to explain how I got this sound, but is anyone interested? I'll have to return to this thread probably on wednesday or thursday.

Quick explanation:

Saw wave with sync modulation (using modwheel) --> FilterBank3 (30db Lowpass high resonance, set to 1000hz) --> Voxengo Boogex (VERY VERY IMPORTANT, it's a free distortion) --> Ohmicide (just adds some extra oomph) --> Aftertouch pitch modulation

This sounds great. I would want a little more delay, or increased release time, as the notes seem to cut off pretty quick, and just a wee bit longer attack, and maybe a separate demo with some bass and drums, as I'm sure the basic sound as is would fit well in a quality mix of basic instruments, and defeat my nitpicking :wink: :) Look forward to your posts on Thurday! 8)

Surge - Saw with sync modulation: mp3

Tone2 FilterBank - 30db Lowpass at 1000hz with more than half resonance: mp3

Voxengo Boogex - Guitar Distortion: mp3
Note: FreeAmp DOES NOT work as well as Boogex!

Ohmicide - Extra Distortion: mp3

No Extra Distortion vs Extra Distortion: mp3

Modulation: Use modwheel to modulate sync, use aftertouch to modulate pitch. Use pitchwheel to do greater note bendings.

Demos:

Guitar FX.mp3
Junk Mix

Tips:

-Create very tiny short notes at the end of a note to create a louder mute sound.
-If you want a wah-guitar effect, you have to modulate both the filter and the resonance for best results. Resonance should go up and down semi-randomly while the filter should do what you'd expect it to do, create wahs.

ANY QUESTIONS???

Post

can you give settings for making the saw with sync say using a free vst like superwave p8.
