| - | ===== Caustic Instruments ===== | ||
| - | Here are some notes about instruments I like to use in Caustic. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Guitar ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | For a nice distorted guitar sound I use the PCMSynth with the Dist Guitar preset. | ||

| - | ==== OC-2 ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | One of my favorite sounds is the Boss OC-3 Guitar pedal. I don't reproduce the sound of that pedal very well but you can create a similar thick sound by adding a second PCMSynth with the Dist Guitar preset and then reduce the octave knob in the pitch section by one octave. Play the same notes as the guitar machine to get a thicker sound from the two playing together. | ||

| - | There *might* be an easier way to do this that I just haven't discovered yet but there is no "octaver" pedal in Caustic. | ||

| - | ==== Deep Bass ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | I like the deep bass I get from using the FMSynth with the PH E Bass preset. I got some pointers from other posters in a thread in the Caustic forum and did the following to get an even deeper bass sound. | ||
| - | |||
| - | - Started with an FMSynth with the PH E Bass preset. | ||
| - | - I went to the effects module and added a Multi-Filter. | ||
| - | - I set the filter type to Low Shelf (the default). | ||
| - | - I swept the Freq knob just above the lowest setting. | ||
| - | - I set the Reso to zero. | ||
| - | - I boosted the gain to taste. | ||

| - | ==== Piano ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | I'm not entirely happy with it but my favorite piano sound so far is an FMSynth with the PH EPiano preset. | ||
