I'd love to give a try :) Of course :-) get Alsa Modular Synth and the recent version of CAPS then use this patch in ams: http://lapoc.de/spinoffs/ams-guitrack-RFC1.tar.gz I made the samples using this patch but to make it sound like this one needs to take some effort to set up the input. The patch reacts a little unpredictable sometimes depending on the signal it gets. Both hardware and software (alsamixer, input of the patch) settings are delicate. I use a small phonic-mixer to plug my guitars in and a MAudio Audiophile soundcard. The most ipmortant module to get a decent basic sound is the compressor. use a tool like qarecord or meterbridge to monitor the input and set it to be loud enough and far enough from clipping then fiddle with the compressor before you apply FX and distortion. The compressor is most important for the sound. Before I inserted it, I only managed to have the choice between a feeble, bleak clean sound and screeching blast. The patch has two AMP-modules. mixing both is possible but even more delicate if distortion is involved. for metal sounds it is easier to send the signal to one of the AMPs only. > > I absolutely back that: for 300E you get a hardware recording amp that >> beats *any* softwaresolution. >> > Ill ask my neighbor richboy guitar player what gadgets he tested recently, before I switched to ams I used a Zoom9000 that is OK for practising and for FXed sounds with heavy flanger and the like but misses the punch and dynamics I would expect from a guitar sound. I also had quite good results with a modular system: Ibanez distortion pedal --> H&K RedBox --> mixer(mic-in)--> 6 band graphic EQ -->Line IN. Gave me everything between Killing Joke and Slayer leads (not that great for good clean sounds though...) best regards HZN -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHtiPq1Aecwva1SWMRAvWKAJ4zrbIUCoL2yv00xROoPB1HW+yFAACfa3LB mZvdoilGe8q9nbxImtyUifY= =QfEI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
