Re: solo ambient guitar
It sounds like it's a lot of fun to play through this setup. Makes me want to wire up a delay + reverb circuit of my own. Thanks for sharing!

Re: solo ambient guitar
The sound is so rich and full that there's not a big need of many other instruments to turn the improv into a piece. And while being so full it nevertheless leaves spaces to weave in other sounds.
Cheers.
Cheers.

Re: solo ambient guitar
Reminds me of Robin Guthrie's ambient work, very very good! Are you willing to share info about your setup?

Re: solo ambient guitar
Thanks for the kind words, all!
I'm using a Line 6 Pod HD500x directly into Ardour (on Ubuntu 18.04).
Funny you should ask about the setup -- I wrote some thoughts down on my first attempts at making a delay-heavy patch a few months ago: https://github.com/joedougherty/writing ... _delays.md
This is really just one possible implementation of some "delay stacking" ideas that Chords of Orion discusses here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBsRmJ4QHwM
I chose four delays and 1 reverb. I more or less went with the default settings of each type. My main interest was in creating a nice set of timings.
My base time is a third of a second (333ms). I have 1.5 delays (a tape echo and one channel of a stereo delay) at 2/3 of a second (666ms). I also have a los res delay at close to 2 seconds (1998ms). This sort of timing setup lends itself nicely to a waltz feel.
Then, just to round things out, I put some 'verb on the master bus in Ardour (courtesy of the fine Dragonfly Reverb plugin) -- Large Charmber.
I hadn't heard of Robin Guthrie before -- I'll have to check that name out. Thanks!Basslint wrote:Reminds me of Robin Guthrie's ambient work, very very good!
