Hi folks, I know I'm not known as a very musical person but I'm actually working on a theme for that Homestuck contest!! And since the only program I have any idea how to use without stumbling around randomly is Famitracker I am currently trying to work with that. A minor with occasional segues into C major (which are pretty much the same thing), supposed to sound like a guitar duel. So, here's the problem: I'm trying to get the instrument I'm using for the lead line to sound more kinda gritty and distorted. (sort of like a messy electric guitar), but I can't figure out how! I've tried screwing around with the instrument settings to no avail and I'm really curious how to do this! My guess is it involves a noise track but otherwise I'm confused. |
| I know I'm not the first choice for heroics...and y'all've tried to kill me more than once. And, I don't fancy a single one of you at all. But... Actually, all that sounds pretty convincing. I wonder if Danger Mouse is on. | |

try messing around with the sound effects. no guarantee that that'll work, im not too used to famitracker. that said, the sound for a distorted electric guitar is more like a saw wave with noise elements. unfortunately, famitracker doesnt allow anything like that :\ |

Your best bet is to mess around with the hi-pitch and duty/noise properties. The thing that'll probably work best is a vibrato (like putting the setting on max then minimum) to get a flangery, gritty sound. It might also be wise to add some pitch bend at the start of playing a section as that's what most electric guitars have. Also, if you want strumming, use the arpeggio setting. |
