ricstudioc Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Don't know about the article, but going to the GP site gave me one holiday gift - the original lineup of the Dixie Dregs is touring!! I got mine... btw - can't the split points (Path A to B, etc) be frequency dependant? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen Morse over the years solo, with Kansas, Deep Purple, and with Paco De Lucia and John McLaughlin but never with the original Dregs. Every player in that band was a virtuoso.

Yes, highlight the split block and press the joystick. You should have A/B, Y, and Crossover options. You can select the split frequency and the reverse option directs which paths the high and low signals go to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MusicLaw Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 @Spikey, for those without an on hand copy of the January Issue of Guitar Player Magazine, do you care to share a bit more about the technique or method suggested in the article you mentioned?

spikey Posted December 11, 2017 Author Share Posted December 11, 2017 Yea Ill try off the top of me pointed head Law... The editor shows 4 signal paths in the patch, with a 10 band EQ at the front of each path, all set to different frequencies from low to high. He increased some and decreased others, I remember the 500 hz being -10db down. Sorry I have my copy at work, and dont remember all of the freqs so Get a copy in January 2018 at Wallyworld or Hastings if yer interested. The writer talks about the fullness of the sounds compared to the "one" path "one" amp sound. What I was wondering was if someone had actually done it yet and what they thought of the idea...

Lachdanan0121 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 This cross-over technique basically allows you to process your highs, and lows individually with more than just say compression in a multi-band compressor. I use this technique quite a bit when mixing bass in my DAW. That said, I have to say I don't really do it for guitars that much so far. The closest I get to doing that on guitars is using "Multi-Band Compressors." Its something I will try in the future though, among a great many other things. I like experimentation, and I like improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zooey Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I've found the multi-band comp very useful for clean sounds. Can be pretty natural but still controlled, articulate but not too peaky up top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
