LMMS electric guitar demo

Показать описание

Ok. So for a few months now I've been trying to emulate the electric guitar (because I don't know how to play a real one :P). As you can see these are not real guitars, they are just guitar pickup soundfonts passed through digital amps and cabinets. The result somewhat resembles an electric guitar, though it has its problems. For some reason the rhythm guitar has some ugly resonances when certain chords are played, I tried to mitigate them as much as I could with EQ but I'm still not completely happy with the result. I think this is a problem with the samples and not the amps and effects, since other people use those same effects with real guitars and it sounds really good (or maybe I'm just using them wrong).

I tried to find good guitar samples that that had lower notes than a standard tuned guitar would provide but I just couldn't find anything else, so If you know any other free pickup soundfonts/vst/samples/libraries please share it in the comments, it would be very appreciated

The song is "Hail To The King" by Avenged Sevenfold. The original is 5 minutes long, I just did the first 2 minutes for a few reasons: The first is that it's too long and after a while you can notice the similarities of the samples throughout the song, the second is that the song has a solo with a ton of rapid notes and articulations that would sound awful if I tried to replicate them.

I wouldn't normally upload something that is unfinished, but this was for me an important milestone after having failed so many times to get a decent electric guitar sound.

Here are the links to everything I used:

Amps and cabinet:

Bass:

Drums:

Enjoy :)

Nice! I usually find it appalling to hear synthesized guitars, this doesn't tickle that part. And done in the software I use, very inspirational.

Can you show a Tutorial on how did you make this project, please!? I'm troubling setting things up.
1. How did you setup your cabinet and amp? 'Coz Lmms can't read my downloaded ddl files on fx to add. Opening those on vestige also acts as display doing nothing at all on my guitar vst's.
2. What are your settings on built in effects in the control rack
? Is your FX setup on the vst plugin or is it setup on the piano roll?
3. My other downloaded guitar vst has no sound. Also how did you make that kind of sound on shinyguitar vst? That's the one I'm looking for!
4. Did you set various distortions on the piano roll? or is it fix and dependent from the cabinet and amp?
5. I also have guitar vst UI programmed to sfz file, how can I use it in LMMS?

I just downloaded LMMS few weeks ago. I found it user-friendly for some reasons, so I may continue using this decent free DAW for my not-super-fast laptop. I hope you answer my questions. Please bear with me.

Omg, that's awesome. I actually stumbled into something virtual but it sounds real! I've been wanting to make metal with LMMS but I can't afford an electric guitar, so that's a shame.

Awesome job. (btw, the link to the amps and cabinet doesn't work or exist anymore. Blog has been removed. :/)
