Re: RE: RE:Fernandes guy at NAMM



never got it or played it or even thought much about it. Probably if I
wanted something really analog synth-like, I would actually first think to
use an analog synth before trying to make a guitar sound like one. I'm 
funny
that way. 

What I was talking about is that "guitar string waveform" is usually not an
option on yer regular waveform selector knob. Now if I actually possessed 
an
analog synth, or was possessed by one, it would probably occur to me 
shortly
after the possibilities for triangles became a bit barren that using a
"guitar string waveform" in place of the oscillator section might be pretty
damn cool. Lots of nifty harmonics in those strings. And if I did do that,
it would next occur to me that using a sustaining device on the guitar
string to take away the remarkably predictable guitar string envelope would
be darned handy, allowing me to replace it with the good ol' ADSR. Add some
LFO's, some filters, and some weird effects, loop it up, and as the kids
say, it would be wikked.....
