[LAU] [ANN] ams-guitrack_RC1 virtual guitaramp

[Sebastian Tschöpel]

Hi,

well it sounds pretty cool. I played some old tunes on my strat and I 
really like
the tone. But i would personally insert another module right before 
connecting to the PCM out:

I would take the reverb output and connect the left input into the AMS- 
delay plugin, set
it to 20 ms or so and then connect the delay output to the left channel 
of an AMS stereo mixer
and the right reverb output directly to the right AMS stereo mixer 
input. Last step: Pan the channels
to -0.7 and +0.7. This produces a wider sound. Some more reverb and then 
its time to play
Purple Haze and burn the strat.

Check out the attachement if you're interested.

Mit freundlichem Gruß,
Sebastian Tschöpel.
