![]() I set a heavy noisegate, sustain, and fixed velocity" Another thing the compressor could affect directly is the velocity (strength) of the MIDI notes, but as he mentions later: He might just be referring to adjusting the sound of the guitar layered on top of a MIDI instrument, which you can also do. I'm not so sure the VST matters in this case actually because whatever this "clipping" setting does (presumably adjusts hard limiting), it's going to be affecting the audio signal and cutting peaks/transients, but as soon as it's converted to MIDI, all of that complexity is gone. He also mentions that the "clipping" setting on the compressor (visible in the photo) should be tweaked depending on what software (VST = plugin) instrument (voice) you're using. So what are his pedals exactly? The chain is going from right-to-left, first the compressor to tame the dynamics of the guitar and to level out the signal, and then something called the Empress buffer+ which looks to be a guitar-specific interface that acts as the bridge between the guitar and either the computer or a larger, more general audio interface. So he's showing the exact settings he's using on his two "pedals" to get "good results" meaning this arrangement will make the pitch-to-MIDI conversion much more accurate and responsive. Using these settings and tweaking clipping pretty widely based on the given vst voice instrument what have you. You can plug an electric guitar directly into your computer/interface and use a plugin (on the computer) to turn your guitar into a midi device which unlocks infinite potential as you can do anything a MIDI controller can do but with your beloved instrument. Not too many people know that we have pretty sophisticated pitch-recognition plugins these days that allow you to use a physical instrument (such as a guitar) to instantaneously play any sort of MIDI/software instrument. Ive had good results using guitar to midi with a compressor pedal first in the chain before board/interface. ![]() So the picture looks to be of two guitar pedals at first glance. I'm not a pro but fortunately I think I have enough to figure this out: ![]()
