Cello sounds from a bass?

Sorry, wasn’t sure where to put this.

Did I see somewhere that the Dwarf can play samples? Is it possible to trigger them by playing a bass guitar?

I have a G&L Fallout shortscale bass tuned in 5ths. It’s modified to have a fitth string. It might get a sixth. lol

Anyway, currently I’m using a EHX: Tri-Parallel Mixer with a Mel9 :arrow_right: Intelligent Harmony Machine one one channel. A S9 in another, and a Fuzzhugger: Doom Bloom in another. It gets cool pseudo-cello & orchestral sounds.

Is there any way to do this with the Dwarf?

I do like slightly off-kilter but beautiful. I’m not exactly striving for the perfect Wednesday Addams cello sound but, I don’t want it to sound like a Toys “Я” Us synthesized cello either. :laughing:

Separate from any sample triggering, you might want to start by finding a cello IR and load it with one of the several IR loaders available.

If I remember correctly, Guthrie Govan used a violin IR and a volume pedal to play some Paganini-like arpeggios live on electric guitar in recent years :smile:
