Phait Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 I'm having a bitch of a time EQ'ing my guitar tone to sound well - better and more polished. So I was thinking, wouldn't it be cool if there was software that takes one wave file as a reference point, then EQ's the other wave file to match it in tone. You'd need to isolate the guitar somehow from a CD though... If only this existed. I don't have a chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alndln Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 It already exsists,the Firum EQ,Voxengo Curve EQ and Steinbergs Free Filter plugins all let you steal EQ curves form other sources and apply them as a starting point.

Phait Posted March 24, 2004 Author Share Posted March 24, 2004 Oh, cool. I'll have to search these up. Anything available in VST/AU plugin? I've got Logic 6... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coyote Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 I hope this doesn't sound too presumptuous..... The keys to good guitar tone are in your fingers and your amp. If it ain't sounding good without an amp, it won't sound good with an amp. And if it doesn't sound good straight out of the amp, no EQ will make it better. All EQ can really do is pare down a good sound so it sits properly in a mix. It cannot take a mediocre source and make something good from it. I used to think I was Libertarian. Until I saw their platform; now I know I'm no more Libertarian than I am RepubliCrat or neoCON or Liberal or Socialist. This ain't no track meet; this is football.

Phait Posted March 24, 2004 Author Share Posted March 24, 2004 Well therein lies my hope. Maybe I can be lucky with what I have. I'm running direct into my Fantom-S. I can't mic anything cause: I have a shitty amp, no mic and I don't live alone. And I cannot afford any gear right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I I mjrn Posted March 25, 2004 Share Posted March 25, 2004 Forgive me for getting off the point a bit but consider this: "Is it 'do-able'?" 5 syllables &, frankly, a bit gauche "Can it be done?" 4 syllables Let concision & precision be your watchwords!

Desdinova Posted March 25, 2004 Share Posted March 25, 2004 coyote said it the best. Also Sonic Foundry has some nice acoustic modeling capabilities. Desdinova "...I am the one you warned me of." www.BaronAudio.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
