I’ve been developing an experimental guitar dynamics processor called SOL-2 Guitar Dynamics Shaper, focused on clean, transparent control and precise attack shaping, and I’m looking for some beta testers.
It started as a guitar compressor, but evolved into a more flexible dynamics shaping tool. It separates transient and sustain processing, allowing you to shape pick attack and body independently. It’s especially useful for tightening rhythm guitar and preserving pick attack clarity.
Key features:
- Independent transient and sustain control
- Tone shaping via Focus / Tilt (transient-aware)
- Clean master section (Clear Mid / HPF / LPF)
- Designed for precise, detailed control (not “set & forget”)
Currently, this is an unreleased prototype. If it gets a good response, I may polish it up for a very affordable release later on (around $15), but for now I’d really appreciate honest feedback on the workflow and sound.
I didn’t include audio demos on purpose — I’m curious how different people approach it and what they get out of it.
If you’re on Windows and interested in testing it, just reply here or send me a PM — I’ll share the file.
Just a heads up: I’m based in Japan, so replies might be slightly delayed depending on your time zone.
Thanks!
