Yep. Noisy as hell here. The acoustic emulation is quite good, though. I think Watto hit the problem.

The hiss is unbelievable but I think it sounds very much like an acoustic, I really like it. Get rid of that noise though.

OOH OOH OOH!!!

How might it sound if I plugged in an electric banjo? I'll probably have to get back to you on that.

btw, how about dropping the reverb, then it would be easier to hear what your effect is doing to the dry signal...

if you do a mac version i can record you guitar parts with 6 different guitars (HB, single, p90)

That hiss is indeed very loud, sounds like you used a pretty extreme high pass, which seems to recreate the general tone, and hiss for me.

Still a very loud hiss mate, have a different source to try maybe?

I think it sounds great and very useable - I guess the hiss is due to some kind of strong compression which is going on and which works too much on the very high frequencies... a simple high-shelf might already help...

Still...
Than I have to check later, 5am here sorry.

Anyway here the same version without reverb.

Right, it will get easier once they can play through the VST.

Hello,
I would like to try it aswell.
I have a strat with single coil at the bridge position.

About the hiss, I wonder if it's just normal, since the 5th position (using bridge pickup only) is known for the hiss issues in single coiled guitars, so after the vst insert it just gets amplified. (I personally never use the 5th position, and maybe I could confuse the hiss issue with the vst itself)
Just a thought...

Rene said the pickup was a humbucker.

Listened to the demo for your plug and think it sounds great! Got some nice guitars and a good preamp - if your still looking for beta testers I can upload you some tones tomorrow?

All the best,
Spiggy

Yes, that would be great.
Your PM is turned off !

Thanks

Rene
