EVH5445 Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Hello, I would like to know if any of you knows what combination of effects would simulate a 12 string. I have a digitech rp 50. Any help would be appreciated!:- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoConMan Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 I dunno, I'm not a big effects guy. Chorus and digital delay maybe? I already have a couple twelve strings, so.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepblue Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Delay with a slight repeat & a Chorus pedal sounds just about right....an octave pedal as well perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundergod Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Octave (up), delay set for less than one repetition (feedback) and at the shortest time you can set it; chorus. For this particular sound I would place the delay first. The chorus second and the octaver 3rd... the octave generator should be set at half the level of the real sound, the delay at the same level and the chorus at your taste.

Swmcv2007 Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 For recording I do it Jimmy Page-style and record two separate parts an octave away from each other. If your timing is right it will sound just like a 12 string. By doing this you can do unison bends and even change a few notes to give the part some depth. You can also edit each octave individually and put them on separate sides for a 12 string chorus effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffster Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 The cheapest way is to buy a special pick like this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/JELLIFISH-GUITAR-PICK-simply-REVOLUTIONARY-jellyfish_W0QQitemZ390030240179QQcmdZViewItemQQptZGuitar_Accessories?hash=item390030240179&_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_HEWC Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 ehx pog or micro pog... lets you set either a +1 or -1 octave or both... which gives you a twelve or eighteen string guitar.. I have the pedal.. messed around with it and tried various settings... comes pretty close to the actual thing and you can also get some organ sounds from it....
