Any ideas how to recreate this guitar effect from Korg?

This was an effect called the 'hyper resonator' in the old AX300G guitar multi fx from Korg.

Does anyone have any ideas how it could be approximated using DSP? It's classed under modulation, and i can only assume it's some kind of envelope-triggered resonant filter.

alternatively, to avoid re-inventing the wheel, does anyone know of a plugin that does something similar? that would be good to know also.

demo of the effect is from 2:28 - 3:00 in the video

Hi folks, i was asking the other day about a 'matched pair' of behringer c-2 mics as a possible glyn johns setup...

sorry to be back again so soon, but i just noticed i could actually get a pair of c-1's instead

any advice for my miserly ears on these?

i think i'd be happier with a bit more low end in all honesty.... though of course i'm nt expecting 'miracles' :)

what are the basic ingredients for a successful release in 2026?

Let's assume I'm able to produce a decent set of tracks to a releasable standard.

Apart from just publishing them to all major streaming platforms, what other ingredients make for a successful release?

Personally, if I like a band or artist's music, I don't much give a hoot what they look like, whether or not they have a website, videos, YouTube shorts, interviews, etc. -- I just care about the music, and if it's good, I will add it to my collection.

However, obviously, if the artists and bands I do enjoy hadn't done more than just put their music up on streaming platforms, chances are I would never have heard of them, hence my question:

What are the basic essentials in this day and age, apart from just producing good music, to gain a fanbase, a following, and a 'presence'?

It's an open-ended question; obviously, I have some idea, and I could just ask chatGPT and get the assimilated, accepted wisdom... However, I'm just interested to hear real people's opinions and experiences.

has anyone used them?

i'm interested in trying a Glyn Johns style setup for recording drums, and realized I don't have any two mics that are similar enough to use as overheads in that context.

they're insanely cheap to buy.

anyone here know much about caravan hitches?

never had this trouble before. hitch went on easy enough. that's a farm jack lifting up the back of the land rover. yes, the lever on the hitch is fully released, it simply doesn't open wide enough. no amount of force or persuasion (including the sledge hammer) will budge it. i can only assume the ball is too big for the hitch. looks like it will remain with the ball in the hitch forever more, because i've just unbolted it and left it hanging there.

I make music in different syles, quite broadly differing styles if the truth be told... dub/reggae, rock/psychedelic-space rock, electronic, folk/singer-songwriter...

generally accepted wisdom is that diluting the styles does not make either the algorithm or people in general happy!

Question: is it better to release under a distinct artist 'branding' for each style, or is it more important to have one consistent artist 'brand', albeit one that releases music in differing styles?

as a debut aritst or band, is it a good idea to just release one good song?

is it not better to release 2 or 3, so listeners can get a broader sense of the musical style?

just bought a new black n decker drill. was interested to notice that, in reverse, the trigger is restricted so it has very little torque, i.e., you can easily stop it with your hand.

is this some kind of safety feature? never come across this before.

have been given a list of doom from the CRVT on my 04 mk2 Caddy van.

basically all fair points, and will be getting them sorted, but i have a problem with two items:

both under 'braking equipment: mechanical condition and operation':

  1. front brakes left/right tight
  2. rear left brake tight / cable look damaged also

I just took the van to a mechanic to have a look at some of the other items, and he's going to be doing some welding and replacing brake pipes for me. While it was up on the lifter, i investigated the wheels/brakes

I can see what might be meant by 'tight' in the rear left wheel: basically, it doesn't spin totally freely.. it spins a bit then stops. And as far as cable damaged... i'm thinking he can't possibly mean the tiny bit of rubber that's come off from it being in the metal clamp it's supposed to supported by.... thinking it's more likely that the cable seems loose where it goes into the brake drum. i've now investigated that, and the rear shoes needed replacing -- the handbrake lever inside was sticking, causing the cable to appear loose. In, the process, i've also discovered that the reason the wheel doesn't spin freely is to do with the bearing, it's just a tiny bit 'gummy'. I imagine the grease inside has probably dried out a bit over time. there;s certainly no play in the bearing, it's just a tiny little bit of drag. Surely if it was bad, then it would have showed up on the tracking test? that showed 0m deflection per km! [actually, it should have a little deflection, no?]

now, as for the fronts... i have no idea what he's on about! the wheels spin freely, so it;s not the calipers binding or anything, calipers seem fine, van passed braking test; 382/337KGF

Sorry for rambling on, but -- particularly regarding the fronts, how am i supposed to explain that there's nothing wrong and the brakes are not 'tight' as described?!

Just wondered if anyone else has ever had a car or van fail on 'tight' brakes, that aren't actually binding or sticking?!

got to replace some brake pipes on my mk2 caddy van. AFAIK, the original pipes are steel, but i can't find them as a replacement part -- all i'm seeing is copper pipe that you buy in a coil.

is that the done thing, i.e. replace with copper, cut and bent to shape as required?

just back from local test centre -- commercial, mk2 04 caddy van, showing signs of age now i guess. so i have a rust hole in the door sill, a small hole in the left rear of chassis, and a large hole in right side of chassis behind the rear brake booster mounting bracket.

immediate solution that jumps to mind is welded plates.

is that going to be acceptable for a re-test?

On another thread discussing whether fade-outs at the end of songs are 'lazy', I made the glib (and inaccurate) statement that a 'certain band' never used fade-outs. Another commenter attempted to set me straight by saying that nearly all their songs have fade-outs....

So, in the interests of 'science', I thought I would share my findings here 😄

I'm new to all this, so will just describe what i've done:

- dragged a clip onto the timeline in edit view

- opened fusion panel and applied magic bg remover

- drew a 'keep' section on the clip, then hit process frames forward

- allowed it to process the frames.

what's confusing me is that although i see the bg removed in fusion panel, it's not reflected in the edit panel.

i've tried disk-cache render in fusion, but that hasn't helped.

what am i supposed to do to get the fusion processing to show up in edit panel... and hence to be able to deliver/render the processed video?

feeling like a bit of an idiot at this point!

Resolve studio 19, windows 10 pc. working with mp4 video

-- also worth mentioning, i put edge detection fliter on the clip in fusion before the bg remover -- that shows up in the edit view, but not the bg removal.
