Palm Muting Problems and Solutions

Post by shawnturner » Sat May 27, 2017 7:08 am

I've seen a lot of posts here about palm muting problems with the AT-200 and I've been experiencing the same thing for myself. I've seen a few solutions (including changing the way you play), but can I get a few of them gathered up here in one thread? I'd really like to be able to solve this issue because I love the versatility of this guitar but I need a cleaner sound for palm muting! Please Help. Thanks !
I didn't find the right solution from the internet.

Welcome shawnturner!
Palm muting falls in the grey area, between a pitch, and a percussive sound.
When palm muting, the digital interpreter of the system can't detect a strong enough, steady (analog) pitch, to modify (digitally), and therefore produces something, probably something strange.
Unfortunately (fortunately :wink:), the digital world still has some limitations.

I'll be sad, when a chip can reproduce the refined energy, and hit, of a good ol' fashioned 7 string, through a big ol' amp.

(BTW, I'm an analog kid)
