Ok buddies, if I would like to lengthen the sustain on clean, and thicken/widen the notes on the higher strings, what effects chain in Logic would you all recommend? I don’t have enough space to get any pedals yet except for the mirrorhouse and the KinKin gummy bear chorus pedal. So for now I’m using the DAW. Thanks!! I can track the higher end parts separately so that I don’t over amplify the lower end parts, if that will help get what I’m going for on the high end. :blobcatcoffee:

@ambergrey Overdriven sustains is easy-peasy, as distortion/overdrive has a baked-in level of compression. Clean sustain is a little tougher -- you're always going to be dealing with that initial transient spike of the pluck.

So probably looking at two compressors. Add a slow release one-knob like an LA2A and apply gain until you like the sustain. Then add a very fast compressor or limiter (probably VCA style) to tame the transient until it's no longer poking you in the eye.

Humble Bundle seems to have a bundle with some Cherry Audio virtual synths at the moment, including Quadra which you'll hear on a few Key 13 tracks, notably Primavera and Lateral Flow.

Also includes Mercury-4 which is a Roland Jupiter-4 emulation, and Dreamsynth.

The deal includes a whole bunch of sample packs too.

Not affiliated in any way but I use a lot of Cherry Audio stuff and this is a cheap price...!

@keefmarshall @etherdiver I have my eye on Double Scoop in the bundle, designed by Sonic Foundry alums Matt Yost and Jason Donnelly (DJ Puzzle). Interesting ROMpler design, lot of cool features

Working on tracks for the latest album, and we’re once again doing it completely different. Laura is laying down topline melodies before either of us write a single lyric. We’re letting the topline dictate where the song goes. Which is weird (for us).
