Does anyone know of a free Mellotron VST? I want to experiment with the sound a bit but I'm not ready to commit money.

Thanks for the suggestions. I don't have my recording rig set up out here but I'm definitely going to try all of these.

They have two electric (RealStrat, RealLPC) and one acoustic (RealGuitar) package. That sounds as good as I've heard a MIDI guitar sound but I really feel like it'd just be easier to emulate a guitar with a distorted organ rather than trying to sample it with a keyboard. Even that guy sounds kind of stiff.

Even if his own DSP is a bunch of hot air and he himself is a douche, he brings up a lot of valid points.

Razzled posted:Has anyone found a great VST for copying a Metallica-esque heavy distortion sound? Depends on what era of Metallica you want, really. There are more JCM 800 clones than you can shake a stick at, so take your pick and dump the mids to about 2 while cranking your treble and your bass around 7. Then throw a tube screamer clone in front of that for tightness and ta-da, Metallica with Burton. For the later stuff, you'll want a Mesa Boogie clone (I think they use Dual Recs now but I can't remember) with similar settings. Then just tweak/EQ until you're happy. E: Can't vouch for it but try this E2: Actually, what kind of setup are you working with right now? Declan MacManus fucked around with this message at 22:21 on Feb 23, 2014 |

Razzled posted:I basically have no idea what I'm doing. I have an electric, which I plug into a Roland audio interface which connects to my computer. And then I open my DAW (Ohm Studio) and record. And then throw VSTs on top of a rack to change the sound from just a standard guitar. Oh, okay. Well, I don't want to overwhelm you too much with recording stuff, so what I will say is that you want to pay attention to what your cab sims are and experiment with mic placement (which any guitar sim worth its salt should let you play with). Here is a handy chart to give you some guidelines for equalization (which is necessary to make your guitars sit well in a mix). If your current VST doesn't let you mess with that stuff, I think Amplitube has a free version that you can mess around with. I will say that from listening to samples on the SimulAnalog website that I'm not a huge fan of how it sounds, so that could be the problem. Here are better sims that might get you closer to the sounds that you want.

HollisBrown posted:I cannot believe that the Plugin Makes are still clinging to Ilok. It adds overhead to developing and maintaining plugins, and not only does it not stop piracy, it actually encourages it. I dunno, I think people are super excited to buy a whole new suite of software and probably Cubase or whatever else if they misplace or damage a 3 inch piece of plastic
