Hello everybody - 1st post here

I've been progressively paring down my guitar rig to a "real" head + cab for rock-ish stuff and a laptop for the more avant-garde things (looping etc). I'd like to cop that Adrenalinn feel, only using software. I'm pretty aware of the software modelers to handle the virtual amp part, but I'm at a loss when it comes to the beat synched filter + fx + sequences. The drum machine part isn't important. There are too many choices, most of them impractical.

Any tips/real world success stories?

Thanks,
AF

fxpansion's Phatsync is a perfect tempo synced filter. For free, you can try Autofilter by Kjaerhaus.

Did you check out www.camelaudio.com Space thingy.

Camelspace or UHe Filterscape.
There's also a freebee called "filterseq".

Hi AmpliFuzz,

Welcome to KvR

As greendor and Aural Chaos mentioned (thanks guys

) CamelSpace is well worth looking at - it certainly offers you beat synched filter, beat synced gating and also lots of other FX. Click the link in my sig for info.

Thanks
Ben

I use the adrenalinn a lot. I also use camelspace & psp nitro. They all have some common ground, and the plugins are actually better fidelity than the adrenalinn. I think it's the ease of tracking that makes me keep the adrenalinn.

I'm a ZapFilter fan... It's a little overlooked IMHO, it can do extreme stuff

Thanks, guys! Keep'em coming if you have more

I'll most definitely check out CamelSpace.

Another request: is there a monophonic audio to midi converter that doesn't suck ass?

And on a tangential yet related note, what's the best ASIO host for live guitar playing? Something stable that can load different FX chains and change presets in a chain or switch between them with MIDI program changes. The Dsound stuff comes to mind, what about freebies/others?

Thanks again

AF

audio to midi: I agree, most suck... But then there is the current king, Melodyne, soon to be polyphonic, apparently... we'll see

I use FL for live guit fx stuff. Others: Chainer, SpinAudio stuff

The full version of Melodyne is already polyphonic.
It's only Melodyne Uno which is mono.

The Cre8 and Studio versions of Melodyne are multi-channel but they still use the same Melodyne engine as Uno which means they can only do their magic on a monophonic signal. This will change with the upcoming version 3, at least for Melodyne Studio.

i've never actually used adrenalinn, but from what i've heard, i think devine machine's minion can do at least some of the stuff it can: http://www.kvraudio.com/get/1676.html

plus, minion just kicks ass in general for making cool beat-synched sounds.

Minion is great with guitar.

Don't forget about dblue's Glitch. Cheap and you can get some really crazy effects out of it.

You're on fire

Tried CamelSpace demo, and WOW. Great stuff, Ben. Now I'm off to try out all the other recommendations.

Further questions:
Is there any way in any host to set the master host tempo by tapping on a midi pedalboard? One of my bands doesn't use the click for the drummer, so it would be a necessity.

Is there something like a VST arpeggiator for audio apart from the old AnalogX one which was more of a stutterer anyway?
