Autoswell effect

Hello,

I find that the Autoswell effect works well with clean sound, but when there's a lot of effects after, it does'nt work well.

The sound ransack.

So i find that's difficult to create synth effect with it.

I seem that more strings are played hard and and more the violin effect is present. It' s quit unpleasant.

It looks like a sort of gate.

I expected autoswell was a violin effect, but it's not really.

What do you think about ?

Try putting it as the last effect. If you want delay tails to continue after the swell has been reduced you’ll need it to be before the delays. Same with reverb.

Try reducing the swell time parameter if you want it to come in quicker. If you’re not getting the results you want, you could also try using a volume/expression pedal to get the swells to come in the way you want them to.

I'll try. Thanks.

if it goes before anything which affects the dynamic range such as a compressor or amp with moderate gain or compression, these will counteract the autoswell.

Depending on what you have going on, the placement might need to be before, or after.
