Hello everyone - I'm interested in trying some PD objects that model common electric-guitar effects. I have a project I'm working on for which I'm currently sending MIDI out to an external effects processor, but I think it's crying out for an all-software, all-within-pd implementation. I've searched the list archives, and so far have found Yves Degoyon's page with wahwah~ and Disto~:

I'm just wondering if any other guitar players out there have been crafting their favorite effects for PD.
On a related note, has anybody used PD with an electric guitar and amp, in place of a hardware-based effects processor? (I currently use a POD 2.0 for my live effects) I'm curious to what extent people are using PD to replace hardware-based gear like this.
thanks! David Merrill

yes but not in a traditional type of thing (www.creazone.32k.org/doc/mis). There are many apps that can serve as multiFX processors for guitarists (check linux-sound.org, there's an entire section) but they all have drawbacks (like, a lot of them can't be tweaked in real-time). There are quite a few interesting LADSPA plugins available (multi-voice chorus, various distortions, maximizers, limiters, etc) so you could probably build something custom using the plugin~ extern (it's in the cvs).
I had a lot of fun with sooperlooper!
