Thanks my friend - really kind of you to listen and to say so! You should check out more of Rob's stuff - he has a very distinctive way of playing guitar :)

It's basically a kind of gating where you chop up the sound in a way that's synchronised to the rhythm. So here I'm really playing sustained note and slides but it sounds like 16th notes. You can do this in a DAW but I just used by an effect on my GT1 and dialled up the tremolo to get the effect. It's not quite so good to do it that way because you then have to go and manually 'slide' the recorded track to sync up to the actual beats which means any note transistions may be out of time but that in itself can sound quite cool.
I did the same thing on #132019 but you can hear it most clearly on the vocals. :) +2

Very interesting comment there groove, its amazing what you can do to an organic instrument to create something totally new and fresh sounding. I use tremolo sometimes as an alternative to auto panning. What you have done here though is very creative and shows a lot of thought!

Auto pan sounds interesting - is that when you bounce something like a hi-hat left and right for each hit? I wouldn't claim at all to be any kind of 'sound designer' but I'm definitely getting more interested in what can be done in the DAW whereas when I started I just wanted to record my bass!

You use Reaper, so this might be the best video explanation. I use this effect on certain samples like footsteps, or snare drum rolls when I do dance tracks...I think most DAWs have this function on a tremolo plugin.

Really grooving on your experimental, innovative approach, GE...loved your explanation re: 'slicing'...its kinda like reverse engineering: making a regular instrument sound like a synth...lol. VERY cool indeed!!!:W:W:W

Thanks Mr Sushi. As well as the tremolo/slicing effect here, there's a lot of distortion and then I added a touch of flanging in the DAW (you can hear it best from around 1:20). I suppose it's not too surprising it ends up sounding quite synthy - most analogue synths used LFO modulation on triangular/square waves which are very rich in harmonics - basically what you get when you start applying distortion and flanging!

I completely understand the tech of this process, for real!!! LOL
Just amazed that if you didn't explain it the way you did, I would have easily continued to believe that it was a synth!!! GREAT job, GE!!! +1

Thanks so much Wade. It's always interesting playing on Rob's tracks - he manages to do an awful lot with one chord so the challenge is to keep the line interesting while also not disturbing the drone. (Oo - now _that's_ a song title!)

haha Pat - get your son to play you some dubstep! But really, it's just tremolo turned up to 11 :) I didn't expect this comments thread to get so technical... :)
