Re: oud simulator?

I guess it would be hard to simulate the depth and density of acoustics,

especially with a digital medium.

But darn it, someone should try! It would be so much more convenient.

I guess the electric oud is the best way to go - but a little costly if it's not

your main instrument.

I`m quite convinced no pedal will do the job. Maybe if you go midi guitar you might

find something, don`t know about the Roland VG88 either.

There are pedals manipulating pitch bends but don`t sound like the sliding notes on

a fretless oud.

 

Using a standard el gtr the closest I can think of would be a clever combination of slide,

maybe ebow, EQ to simulate gut strings  ;-), a little compression and some smart reverb

or short delay to simulate the oud body.

 

The recipe doesn`t sound very convinving though.  :_)

Yes I have their catalog - but was hoping not to spend the $1500 right now.

Would be great to have a simple mod for guitar! Thanks...
