Anybody with Strat as part of their name must be cool.Your playing is great on this! I can't believe that's not and amp.How did you get that sound? Check out my latest song called Blues in Bm

Hey IB, Thanks. I played around tweaking the settings in GB '08 until I got what I was looking for. The main effects that seemed to get me to my tone were the AUmatrix reverb, treble reduction, compressor and the visual EQ also I used a soft tremolo simulation to get a rotating Lesile effect, gives it that "wet" sound. I try to simulate the tone I get from my Fender Blues Deluxe amp and I think I came pretty close. The best part about it is I can play well into the night and not wake my wife and son. Thanks again.

Thanks M, Mark, yes I was a little skeptical about the "magic band thing" but you can tweak it all you want, and it saves you some time. I just wish it came with more arrangements. Thanks again Stratcat Check out my latest song called Fender Bender

Thanks , Jim, dont be afraid to experiment with the"Magic" feature even though it sounds a bit hokey. It great to jam against, if only it came with more arrangements. Thanks, Stratcat Check out my latest song called Fender Bender

The New New Checkerboard Stratcat! So is it the New or the New-New Checkerboard Lounge these days, or have they torn it down for UIC (or IUD) gentrification? I used to go there throught the 80s, people knew how to treat an outsider there, despite my lack of a tan. Beat the hell out of the kid-tourist places like Kingston Mines and B.L.U.E.S. What I mean is that this sounds real, brings it all back. (you might have read this already but just in case) Check out my latest song called Yours and Mine

On Chicago style but this sounds pretty authentic to me. That's some real sweet playing from you too and great sound for a direct in recording. You always seem to remain true to the blues.
