how I make my tracks groove - tremolo stacking
I finally got around to finishing this little tutorial on one of my newly discovered favorite techniques to adding a groovy, organic element out of plane simple chords. hopefully this inspires some of you to also play around with some tremolos 🦦

@Sebastian Jautschus Yeah, I that way of sideschaining especially the bass to the kick is pretty much obligatory for most electronic music. I think it's super easy to set up now and I actually sometimes also sidechain for instance some big guitar parts to the lead melody so they duck down a bit, when the melody is playing. Haven't recently bought the Fabfilter Pro-Q4 equalizer I've started experimenting with sidechaining via the EQ. It's quite cool and in that way I could just duck some frequencies of a track rather than the whole band. But I have to admit I'm also thinking I might overdo the whole thing a bit and I'm not sure all my reference tracks have gone through the same. But as long as it's fun, it's part of what keeps us going, right. BTW I haven't tried your tremolo trick yet, but I did use a lot of tremolo for a new track, that's heavily inspired by Hermanos Gutiérrez. I have the Strymon Flint pedal that they're also using. And what about our track? Do you feel like trying to add something to it, and then send it back for me to continue on?

@Sebastian Jautschus That track with the Flint and the whole Hermanos-sound isn't out yet, but will probably be in around a month. I did use the Flint for the Theme from 1:02 on this track, but otherwise I haven't usd the tremolo side of it on any other track. But the reverb is on a lot of my tracks, just pretty turned down. https://open.spotify.com/track/57cUwAAx3eZ3w4jAn9jfNv?si=e859b5d937a8478c Regarding tremolo I actually use it quite often in Logic Pro as an effect for having some guitar swells - or a high note on a pad - slowly turning from the right to the left channel, where you just set it to e.g. three bars and then the sounds will slowly fade from one side to the other and back. It seems to be an easier way than automating it.

Paul Davids Nucleo Pedal
I don't know about you guys, but I haven't really used pedals at all in my process yet (except the occasional looping session - but nothing quite as @Sebastian Henkelmann for example). but this pedal is really testing me 🥲 it sounds freaking incredible and has so many features that would lend themselves really well for live playing imo - like for example the freeze button. what do you guys think of it? is anybody else thinking of getting it? and what are your fav pedals atm if you use any?

@Sebastian Jautschus Regarding the Nucleo it's mostly just GAS, but it does seem really inspiring. I think I should be able to cover my reverb needs with my Strymon Flint, the Cloudburst and my Chase Bliss Mood MKII, but the shimmer-ish stuff on the Nucleo and all the stuff is just really intriguing. That said, I do tend to make almost all my reverb in Logic these days so it's easier to control and edit and automate. Regarding pedals I've also bought quite a few and usually if you buy them used, you can sell them again for the same rice later on. Probably not relevant for the brand new and sold out Nucleo.

@Sebastian Jautschus Yeah, I've been eying the Valhalla Vintage Verb for a long time too. Seems to be pretty much the best one for almost everything including vocals. Sure it sounds great on guitars too.

January relseases
Hi everyone, happy new year :) I thought I'd start a January release thread as I've seen some juicy guitarwaver releases this month. I had to drop off my bi-weekly schedule because university and work were throwing me off for a moment but I'm finally back. This song marks a milestone for me bc it's the first time I wrote a song in a time-signature completely new to me and managed to finish it to Spotify without months of overthinking. Anyone can guess what time-signature it is? :) https://open.spotify.com/track/6V3MgE6vMi9fITXBm6Hpz2?si=f858c0cc85c74876 It's also the first song where I live-streamed part of the songwriting on TikTok and it was a surprisingly pleasant experience I recommend trying out if you're curious. It felt like writing with a band a little bit because finally I was not sitting alone on my computer but had some social surrounding at least virtually. Might do that more often in the future. Make sure to drop your releases below so @Sebastian Jautschus can add them to his guitarwave playlist (and I started one as well ;) ) Hope everyone's good and looking forward to more active times in this beautiful community!

@Martin Eibisch thanks for bringing up my track, when I failed to do even the slightest self promotion. 🙏🏻. And glad you like the strings. As I’ve written before it’s a free plugin from Spitfire called LABS and it’s Cello Moods.

Red Hot Chili Pepper drummer feeling the music…
I know we are a group of gentle guitar instrumentalists, but you have to love how Chad Smith “feels” the music at will. Any RHCP fans feeling this? .https://www.instagram.com/reel/DQIEMzpEqwy/?igsh=d2N5bmZwYXJ3NTE3

@Joe Cabrera thanks Joe! There were my all time favorite band as a young kid and when learning bass, and I’ve listened to them so much.

October 17th releases
Hey wavers, who's releasing today? :) I wanted to share a little story about today's release. I wrote it on the day of the first ever guitarwavers hangout. Talking to some likeminded guitar-musicians was so refreshing and motivating to me that I had to write a new song on the same day and 'the cablethief' is the result. imo it's one of my best instrumentals so far. usually I'm not a person who's very proud of their works cause i can't stop criticising what could have been better but with this one (even though its definitely not perfect) I feel confident and proud, what a cool feeling. Definitely aiming for more of this in the future :) how are you guys feeling with your finished songs? Curious to hear some thoughts on this (probably also fit's into the creative process month topic ) https://open.spotify.com/track/1WgHMTOzCrGgVoTdn7g42U?si=b5a2df8ae9af412c

@Martin Eibisch thanks Martin. I will often generate an image with AI in MidJourney or Photoshop (I work with design as my job) and then the canvas video was done by uploading the image into Google’s AI Studio or somewhere else, where I still have free credits. I will sometimes also find a nice image on Unsplash.

@Joe Cabrera thanks you. I think I did most of it in Logic where I automated the various reverbs to increase a lot at certain points. I’ll send you some more details over later on.
