Diggin' VKFX On Guitar Tracks!

I realize that the VKFX series was optimized for keyboards however they also sound great on guitar tracks. Very analog sounding! They're a great deal!

Peace!

    Yeah, there are some presets that come with the rack that have some real character, and/or can add a lot of really unexpected and unique character ( there are a lot of presets). It's great to hear how the rack works with the whole group of the effects working in concert.

    I also like the one-off effects in the ProChannel. All in all it's really nice.

    Two internal 2TB SSDs laptop stuffed with Larry's deals and awesome tools. Studio One is the cat's meow as a DAW now that I've migrated off of Sonar. Using BandLab Cakewalk just to grab old files when migrating songs.

    I make some videos. This one shows how to do a physical loopback on the RME UCX to get many more equalizer nodes.

    VKFX morphed an organ part into sync w/ the rhythm guitar.  Worked great the other way, turning an organ more like guitar.

    Yeah, these FX are destined for a Rhodes CakeAlexS!  I use the GSi MrRay73 Mark II and these FX really make the sound come alive!

    Peace!

    I love the VKFX Preamp,Comp,and Chorus for my clean guitar sound. It has my clean sounding the best it ever has. And I have GR5, AT3, TH2, Podfarm. But the VKFX nailed it supremely!!

    And just load up the Rhodes in DimPro and add some VKFX, whoa!!!

    That suite is killer!!
