Turn Any Wah Plugin into a Touch Wah in REAPER!
I figured this trick out when I realized I didn't have a touch wah plugin on hand, but it can do much more than just that. You can use REAPER's Parameter Modulation function in Audio Control Signal mode to control a wah plugin with your playing. You can also use LFO mode to create an auto wah effect. Beyond this use, you can control any parameter of any plugin however you want with this method!

      If you can count on the sound guy at a show, or have a mixer already at the rehearsal room, you just need a wireless pack. The part you wear is small, though you need to hook up the base station to transmit the signal too. I have only really worked with the Shure ones before but there are lots out there. Bear in mind you still need a traditional mixer with mics hooked up to that

    Although i understand why everybody likes the Warm More, when purely in the context of a mix, these high ends are way too harsh, and the unit seems to struggle a bit on the low ends aswell. i'd probably tweak it way more lightly ! Although it defenitely has that openness you can hardly acheive with pluggins, i'd rather spend the same price on a Tegeler EQP1 or a IGS Rubberband !

I really wish you could have gotten hold of an older 2 channel Rocktron Hush pedal. I have two of them & they behave very similar to the Decimator 1. I also have the Hush you tested & it is completely different. In it's defence though it is not designed to take the input from a guitar, it should be placed after a noisy pedal, probably the reason it was noiser. Really cool shootout

      It did it "wrong", with a short clip of white noise. That method works better with speakers, but it's not as good as a sine sweep. I also hooked the tank directly into my interface. I've done more you can download from my discord that are done with a sine sweep through a clean channel, which is the more normal way to do it!

    When I had a newer SR505 I actually considered removing the preamp but I didn't want a passive bass, so I wound up blowing a ton of money on a Dingwall, simply because I still wanted an active bass that sounded better. Especially when recording I'm definitely not a fan of passive guitars, let alone basses, and thankfully my new 10-string guitar had Fishman Fluence Moderns, which, while I was hoping for something better, it at least had active pickups which still saved my recording sessions.

  • @joeylizotte7537
    @joeylizotte7537 17 дней назад

    Ok.. So, I gotta point out that when you got to the "top 6", you said they're all "4CM", but they're NOT! The TC Sentry, Revv G8, and Boss NS-1X are "4CM" gates.. meaning you can run it through both ends of an amp, and it'll actually gate both ends (or you can gate noisy pedals through the Send and Return, as well as gating in front of the amp, or in the loop.. wherever you need it). "4CM" doesn't just mean that the pedal can use 4 cables, though it is a common misunderstanding. (The term was made popular when people started using the Boss NS-2 through both ends of their amps.) Gates like the ISP G-string and Fortin Zuul+ are "triggered" or "keyed" gates (aka "Muzzle" gates, along with others.. like the Highwind Phalanx, GUPtech SUN and MWAC, Lichtlaerm Audio Key and Gate, and quite a few others), which HAVE to be used in an amp's effects loop (or after your source of distortion/preamp), and they only work as intended (and can really only be judged) if you use the "Guitar or 'Key' In and Thru" (directly from the dry guitar signal). The original Fortin Zuul only had a "Key In" because Mike Fortin didn't want anyone thinking it was a "4CM" gate. (They're based off of rackmount "studio" gates, which typically only have a "Key input".) Next, the KMA "Pylon" is solely a "front end" Gate/Boost, and the "Send and Return" is specifically for adding an OD pedal (or any noisy pedal being used in front of an amp), not for "4CM" use. It's also made especially for extended range guitars, and can also be used as an amp's footswitch as well, simultaneously turning the gate on and off when switching channels. For best results, you'd still need a gate in the loop for "amp noise", or "dead silence"... like the Lichtlaerm Audio "Key and Gate", since it was designed by Daniel Ringl, just like the KMA Pylon.. except the "Key and Gate" works more like the ISP G-string and Fortin Zuul, so it's made for using in an amp's effects loop.. (the opposite of the Pylon), but any single ended gate should be good enough. The MXR Smart Gate is also considered to be a "front end" gate.. best when used along with something like a Decimator (or even a Hush) in the loop (or an amp's built-in gate, if it has one). Also, the Rocktron "Hush" ONLY works as a noise reducer, not a "Gate" (like the built-in "gates" from amps like the Peavey JSX or Bugera 333XL.. It only "tames" amp hiss.. No gating involved.) Finally, about the ISP Decimator II's... Again, while they can be used anywhere in your signal chain (like the original Decimator), they're designed to be "linked" together, especially if you want to use them to their full potential. (Also, the G-string II's "Link Out" is for "dual amp" or "stereo" rigs.. You can Link Out from the G-string II into the "Link In" of a Decimator II that's running in the loop of a 2nd amp, so both gates are "tracking" the guitar signal from the G-string II, while "gating" through the effects loops of 2 different amps.) I've tried all of those gates, and if I had to pick one from your top 6, I'd probably go with the Sentry, too, since it can be used in front, in the loop.. or both, but nothing compares to using 2 gates, and that's where the Decimator II's (when linked together) shine the most.
