Hey!!! I’ve played it for you Celmo, to thank you for the GAM. It’s an improvisation I’ve just done. It’s not well recorded, not well mixed, but my feelings are clearly saying THANKS for the GAM!!! Enjoy the frenzy of this crazy moment with me. Yahooooooo!!!

My joy about the GAM it’s not something subjective! It really gives you fantastic sounds as you can hear.

BTW, here I’ve used nothing but the GAM, then a little delay and finally an EQ. I didn’t clean the sound at all.

The fact I’m so resolute about what I say here, is that I have been looking THIS very sound for so long time and never got it out of very expensive outboard gear,which I’ve never could buy anyway, I rather played those amp in the shops saying bay bay by the end... but I finally have it, or rather THEM, cos the GAM reproduces many different kind of amps!

For guitar players having a Creamware System, it’s a MUST to have the GAM! Good luck so friends…

Definitely getting a little crazy here Nestor! Is good.

The first thing that came straight to my ear though was that the guitar sounds as though there is some kind of flanging effect on it, sort of like a phase thang. I'm not sure if it is intentional though as it might be the preset or maybe the delay? Anyway I'm about to find out all exactly what this thing is all about.

Yes, it definitely is good to let go some cathartic feelings out of oneself, which invigorates my feelings of looking for the good in life.

The phasing “something” you can hear is due to the fact I’m using double tracking, and so this. It’s a very nice FX you can achieve by double tracking and it’s very subtle, I’m even surprised you found it out, cos is very soft. You have to move one of the stereo tracks a frame or two farther than the first fixed one, and then this subtle and nice FX is created.

Anyway, without the GAM, I wouldn’t be in this lovely crazy state of mind! The sound of this little mysterious thing drives me into the feelings of improvisations and this is what I like most to do, as a Fusion musician.

You can download a demo here, in the Z, or get the stereo free version of the Blusman, which is more and less similar. Good luck!

So it was intentional then! Well that's good.

I've received the GAM in the mail and I've just sent a mail back to Celmo to let him know I got it ok.

It will be interesting to see what sounds I can get out of this thing. I'm not a guitarist. I'm a bass player (the username "might" just give it away

), but I can see it will be a useful device to have on standby.

But now it is time to zzzzzzz. Will have to play with it later.

Cheers!

I am not a guitar player myself; I’m too, a bass player. I nevertheless like to play guitar, I love it… so much! I would use it mostly for leading melodies and solos, rhythmic guitars and special effects as well.

As a bass player I’ve used the GAM with success too, it gives you deep, nice punchy basses. Of course, don’t use the guitar presets cos they are not suited for your, you should rather go trying till you find what you want and then you cal always save your presets for bass, with the name bass at the beginning, so they come all together for a fast access search. I have recreated some nice kind of Fender Jazz Bass sounds, deep and dark, some funky slapping wonders and some rather unusual distorted leading songs, which are not very common for bass guitar.

Try it on drums too, it gives them a very warm feeling, not to say with your Synths, it hot them up. The compressor is among the best if you are looking for warmness. Enjoy!

I'm having some Finnish Vodka right now.. and you're playing??? It's hard to tell which is better!

Anyway, great playing, nice outs, great riffs.

Nestor · Post by **Nestor** » Mon Aug 19, 2002 11:35 am

I’d love to get a couple of those Finnish Vodkas with you Ken, right where you are! You know? In some countries they drink it with some salt dried codfish, so they don’t get drunk with too much alcohol, it’s a fantastic combination. Strong taste both food and drink… But I still preffer the GAM
