duranduran Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Hi guys i'm trying to find a way of sustained a chord (20 seconds) and play over it (hd500) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mralmostpopular Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 You could start the looper recording after the initial attack, and cut it off before the sound starts to die off. It might take a little practice, but that should allow the chord to sustain for as long as you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfsmith0 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Put a volume control in front of a delay. Rock the volume back while you strum and then rock it foward. You want to feed the delay with only the sustained part of the chord, not the attack. Keep doing this at a rate that keeps the decay from the delay minimal. Usually you can set it up so you only need to strum every few seconds. It'll sound like one hugely long chord as long as you keep your strum volume consistent.

drschultz Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Hi guys i'm trying to find a way of sustained a chord (20 seconds) and play over it (hd500) Hello, I made a patch to copy David Gilmour's Sound on Sound. Here is the link on customtone. http://line6.com/customtone/tone/222341 Please read the description as it tells you how to operate the foot pedal. You may have to extend the delay but it should work. Good luck, -Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuskey Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I played around with this and the perfect solution for me was to buy an EHX Superego and put it in the FX loop of the HD500. Not the cheapest solution but the pedal is capable of some really cool sounds that, for me, justified adding it.
