    I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009

    Yep, +1. That was fun, sounded great!

    What settings (presets) for lead and rhythm tones, etc.

    Cheers,

    Thanks guys! I didn't know my regression to age 16 was going to go over so well!




    My setup for this was my Suhr Classic into a PodXT on a Satriani sound that I downloaded a couple of years ago from line 6. The recording software is Cakewalks Music Performer 2004 or something like that...its all I have at the moment and it really isn't very good but it gets the job done...


    The harmonies are (for the most part) diatonic 3rds. Once I decided to do the harmony bit I figured that was the interval to get the sound I was going for. If I had been serious about doing the harmony parts clean I probably would have written them out and come up with an actual part but I was in a hurry so I came up with the melody and then just tried playing it up a 3rd in the key of a minor. There are some parts where playing an F# (making it more of a Dorian scale) in the harmony guitar made more sense to my ear than keeping it 100% in A Natural Minor. There are a few places where I forgot what part I was doing and didn't have time to fix it so the harmonies are kind of a mess in places.....


    Over the solo the chord changes lasted long enough that I needed to treat each one like a seperate key center so over the F# I played F# minor, over the A I played A minor and so on...its pretty hard to actually make any kind of musical sense when you are playing that many notes...at least for me it is. If you guys have ever seen any of my live videos you'll know that I don't play this way very often....
