There's only one vurt, and besides, my sculpting interests are bit different than yours.

The thing is, I've been thinking about using the fx from amp sims for some time. Any favorites from among the rather large number on offer?

I rarely use the amp sims in Guitar Rig 3 but the effects are awesome and it has tons of modulation potential with it's MDFs. I love me some Guitar Rig when I do the kind of stuff vurt is describing.

Good to know because that's the one I have, but I'd be willing to try something else if the fx were worth considering. Even those who don't find any amp sim that authentic seem to like the fx sections.

i dont have gr, but i have used it at a friends house, some nice sounds indeed.
but have to admit to being a little overwhelmed and only having a short time with it, so couldnt suggest anything specific.
i would say however, just go for it, whats the worst that can happen?

Not really spent much time with GR3 (always on the list of things to do), but I assume I can run a signal through the fx without it also going through an amp and cab. I only bought it because of a very attractive deal...thinking...someday I'll be glad I have it.

See my post above. Clueless.

Of course, you can also use the crossfade module to create a wet dry mixer.

Sounds better and better. I always have an optimistic assumption that I'll have time to learn new software while also trying to use what I already have...it rarely happens.

One of my favorite patches...

an envelope follower determines how much signal feeds the delay and the dry signal is processed with a rotary speaker. Excellent on e-piano.

Gratzie for this.

I've been looking very closely at this and talking to a coder friend because I want a granular timestretcher/scrub type scratcher all-in-one live buffer-capturing VST:

it gave me good thoughts, maybe it'll inspire someone competent

+1 for dBlue - but it gets crashy just like particle cloud

Been playing with GR3 a little bit and it does have a lot of cool fx in it, and in some ways the amps and cabs are equally valuable as effects. They may not seem spot-on accurate to experienced guitarists, but for sound sculpting maniacs they work just fine.

Let us know when it's done.

So, LiveSlice was a no eh?

Not a no. I have it laying about in some folder, but I don't think I ever recognized that it has time-stretching abilities. To me, it seems a slice and rearrange type of program. How does one go about stretching in LiveSlice?

VST like Paul's Stretch
