GMC Forum _ GEAR & PRODUCTION _ How Do You Get This Guitarsound?

Posted by: Mackietao Jan 11 2008, 06:05 PM

In "The Duskfall"´s song "Deliverance" 04:24 into the song the solo sound is like some kind of keyboard thingy. I´ve been told by someone that it´s not a synthmodul kind of thing.

How do you get that sound?

I`m sorry but I couldn´t find it on youtube. So you who are curious on listening will have to get it some other way since I can´t upload it

Band: The Duskfall
Album: Frailty
Song: Deliverance (nr 10 on the album)

I found the solo on a homepage...

Almost half in to that solo sample is where the sound I´m looking for is at.

Might be some synth sound involved as well
but technique is surely tapping,2 handed,
intervals are too huge to be played otherwise.

That doesn't really sound like a guitar, but if it is it's got the attack sound removed through some kind of low pass filter/compression, and as Muris said is probably played by tapping in some way.

Or could be something like the Roland G-20 guitar synth

Neck pickup, tapping, and I just had a random idea - it sounds like the volume or tone knob could be rolled back a bit to create that sound.

Give it a try

It could be tapping, but also string skipping i guess. However, there's no attack on the notes so It sounds like it's edited

That is a pretty interesting sound. Somethig thells me that it was Pro Tools though.

P.S. Twibeard, sick signature.

Compression w/ hammer ons out of the neck pick up?

Posted by: Mackietao Jan 12 2008, 04:49 PM

thx for replies guys. I will try to evaluate

Hmm... I don't know but the solo is COOL!

Posted by: Hisham Jan 12 2008, 11:59 PM

i think this sound is synthisizer guitar cause the frequincy for that sound is different from the orygin drive guitar
