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) )

Hello guys,
Im a keyboardist, and Im working everyday composing and recording
my songs using ardour as the center of my records.
I have a Korg synth, and I haven't problems with the songs, I have
enough patchs as I need to use: piano, strings, synths, etc's,
because those sounds are great for me. The question is, that I need to
record some riffs, or some *strong* chords with guitars and I cannot
get a realistic and big sound for that.
So, if you work with some kind of amp simulator, effects, vst,
whatever, that let get those kind of guitars, tell me. I don't know
what kind of music you listen to or you compose, but guitars like
Stratovarius and Nightwish have, could be an exact example of what I
need. If you think this topic is away from the idea of the list,
contact me using my mail avoiding the list.
Cheers,
Juan.
