  1. brue58ski's post in Setting up wah from scratch was marked as the answer   
    One thing I would do is adjust the mix. Don't just leave it at 100%. Start at 75%.

    I don't even know if you can do ratings anymore. I've been on these forums a long time and if you were back when I started, I'm sure you remember how all it took was one pissy person and they could ruin your rating for awhile. Didn't happen to me but I saw it happen alot. So I decided not to care about ratings. But I definitely appreciate the thought. Glad to help out.
  3. brue58ski's post in Question about Tape Echo's was marked as the answer   
    The tape delays are modeled on delays that were used before the amp (preamp/poweramp) with the rest of the stomp boxes. They were generally the last thing in the chain before the amp

  5. brue58ski's post in Sg Sound On Jtvariax was marked as the answer   
    Yes try the Les Paul Jr body for the SG. Or any of the other flat solid bodies in the "Special" category. That's your first stop in recreating an SG. I have an SG, and have gotten close with the old Variax models. Haven't had time to try it with the JTV models (HD).
  6. brue58ski's post in Banjo Ideas? was marked as the answer   
    Dude I found a better answer!!!! 
    There is a solution to tuning the Banjo to the 5 string tuning.  It requires using Workbench's parallel mode which gives  the strings on any model another virtual string a la the 12 string.  This gives you a 5th string tuned up an octave which you ca then tune up an additional 10 frets giving you that high G.  Hooray!! Here it is
     
    There is a way to do this using Variax workbench: Start with a banjo body, and tune the low a string up to a G (+10), and the high E down to a D (-2), set the volume of the low E to 0%. Turn on the parallel pitch (12 string), add the +12 to your low A string (which you tuned to an upper G) and set the cents to 0 and the mix to 100%. On all the other strings leave the +12 off and set the mix to 0%. Tada! 5 string banjo... If you want a copy of the preset I made leave an email address here and I'll email it to you!
     
    Credit where credit is due
    This idea is NOT mine and was submitted by Joshua Duguid in the Line6 ideas area.  Thank You Joshua!!!!!
     
    It isn't perfect but now you don't need to capo anything.  I think Line 6 could model the 5th string to sound better at that high tuning.  But definitely good enough for my purposes.
     
    Keep in mind that this is only pitch accurate.  Since the "nut" on the banjo's 5th string actually starts at the 5th fret of the rest of the strings, in order to be physically accurate as opposed to only the tuning being accurate you need a partial capo  (only capo's the 5th & 6th strings). What this means is, if you fret all five strings at the 8th fret, for example; on a real 5 string banjo the 5th G string pitch only goes up 3 frets since it's "nut" starts at fret 5, but if you don't use a partial capo at the 5th fret so the 5th string high G's "nut" is the same as the other string's, the 5th G string pitch is, of course, going to be up 8 frets not 3 like on a normal 5 string banjo.  So if you ever plan on fingering that 5th string G the way it is on a real 5 string banjo, you need to use a partial capo on the 5th string at the 5th fret and leave the 1st four strings open.  This will give you the 5 string banjo's physical accuracy.  If you're just going to let the 5th string G ring and never finger it, then you're good with the suggested tuning.  And, don't forget, if you're using the partial capo at the 5th fret then you only need to virtually tune the 5th string up 5 frets not 10.  Hope this makes sense.
     
    I think this is a better answer than the current best answer.  Anyway to change that?
  7. brue58ski's post in Save In Workbench -help was marked as the answer   
    Since you didn't describe how you saved, I can't tell what if anything you did wrong.  However, the main thing is that you are "Sending" the patch so you need to click the "Send" button.  The other main thing is to "Sync" the guitar before you shut down the program.  When you do that it's going to ask you what patches you want to sync and select from there.  It's been over a year since I've used it so I could be a bit off.  I hope this helps a little.
