ParticipantHello,
I use a looper pedal with my electric guitar, and sometimes start with a muted strum to get a basic rhythm going.
Any tips on what I should try with the H9 to create a good percussive tone? I’m not asking for the H9 to turn the guitar signal into a bass drum and a snare. But if there is something cool to try that would help in laying down a rhythm loop that would stand apart from the other guitar loops and leads on top… that’d be great.
Thanks,
– Joe
P.S. I’m not so much thinking about the automatic rhythms you can generate from Resonator and other algorithms. Just something that’ll make an interesting thump, pop, or snap from a guitar note.

ParticipantI haven’t been able to upload some preset examples for you (just yet). But, as a start, most of the modulation algorithms, and a few PitchFactor algos, feature ENV or ADSR control. Try those first, as they provide many different variations on adding interesting & percussive ‘snaps’ to your attack. To preserve most of the input signal – while still still emphasizing the attack – I’d use DynaVerb / OmniPressor gates. More to come …

I get that, but I can’t resist posting this one. Just for fun. Expression pedal control raises the base pitches (where modulation begins) , and also approaches runaway FEEDBACK. Shades of early drum synthesizers.

ParticipantSome examples, ranging from the straightforward, to the bizarre. ‘Percussive’ covers a huge range of possible effects, including those derived by ‘cheating’ to get an envelope shape. In all of these types of presets, the envelope or trigger SENSITIVITY, and compressor THRESHOLD settings, are going to be mission-critical. Tweak them in very small increments. Adapt them to your own playing technique and input levels.

Participantbrock, Thanks VERY much! Lots of things to try. I’ll report back on how it goes.

ParticipantFWIW, so far I’ve tried and like the Harmodulator an RingMod for drum tones. Prefer using the “Sine” on the RingMod. Still have more to go….
