Re: [linux-audio-user] Guitars

The most important element is speaker emulation. Without it distorted
guitars have that 'wasp in jam jar' sound. Fortunately there is a great
LADSPA plug-in for this in Tim Goetze's excellent caps plug-in suite.
Put this (it calls itself cabinet emulation) in a LADSPA effects chain
after the pre-amp/distortion effect of choice & before your reverb/delay
of choice & choose which speaker sound to use according to taste & which
axe is plugged in. I have been thrilled with the results. I am away
from my Linux Music box at the mo, if you are interested I will put up
exactly what chain I use when I can get to check it out.

Hope this helps

Guy ( hopefully putting the axe into Linaxe ;0) )
