Description

So usually you run the v1_1_1.wav through an amp and capture the tonal character. Well this time it's run through the body of a Nylon String Classical guitar! WTF? How??? Easy (not easy) just stick a Dayton Audio Exciter to the sound board of the guitar and mic up the result! **Experimental Proof of Concept. The Exciter is silent on its own, it produces sound by vibrating whatever it's attached to (usually flat panel speakers), so in this case the Acoustic Guitar body becomes the speaker. Mic it up and capture the results. Train NAM to taste. *Notes: 1/ This is a cheap ass busted old classical guitar, not a Martin, so expect the sound of a cheap ass busted old classical. 2/ The guitar was mic'ed in a regular, non treated, noisy room, with an omni measurement mic, not a Neumann in Abbey Road. 3/ I only ballparked the mic placement (did I mention it was an untreated noisy room and a cheap omni mic?) 4/ Things like placement of the exciter on the guitar, tuning, string tension, dampening, etc are all variables. 5/ Other things I know I forgot. 6/ The captures marked "Mixed" had the original test file mixed back in at very low levels before training in an attempt to clean up the highs a bit. 7/ Oh yeah, that pic is AI, not a real thing. Just to get the point across. Discussion here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/neuralampmodeler/posts/6131715903543848/
