You're getting deeper and deeper Renaud,
Thx Mud' , Unknown has 5 stereo layers of guitar on some parts , naturally doubled that makes 10 tracks on the guitar alone , but with the right profiles and post EQ presets on my DAW that was easy to mix, thx to glorious KPA clarity and usage of P90.
And yeah, not a single synth or VST on these tracks , all pads are ionosphere 
Hi, I've been super busy recording some tracks with my singer Lee Rice and we're still working the vocals out.
Anyway all instruments went thru KPA & I made large use of the ionosphere verbs on these atmospheric tracks ( choirs tones and pads )
Supro profiles ( rigex ones ) also got lots of usage here.
Enjoy !
All of these are inexpensive instruments , under 300€ : the hofner is a good asian make (2nd hand) and not the original , but the feel & tone is there. The folk was a trade with a sub 250€ non piezzo vintage yamaha folk.
I used amp compression only (from the amp profile param) , and a slight tad of chorus on my track, but I had to play it right not to sound piezzo plastic.
I have to buy Bert acoustic pack to explore new tones on my folk, I'm pretty sure that bert's experience in making his acoustic profiles is invaluable .
but you're right , to make the hofner sound 60's it's more of a playing style and choice of profile, I remember muting the strings with my left hand while playing the bass.
I use the Kemper mainly because of it's spdif out.
My folk also has an internal fishman , so it's pretty plug and play for me , very convenient, no need to mike. I used to hate piezo tones heard on records & live , but it turned out really great on my KPA.
I use most only console preamp like you do ( UAD , neve , chandler and baldringer profiles ) for folk , voices , bass
slight compression and great verbs , noise gate all these come from KPA.
A demo of my folk tone with the balringer here ( comp, verb, natural doubling )
regarding the bass, we have similar tastes I guess, I bought the Hofner for it's Air & 60's Gainsbourg tones 
. I can confirm that using the right bass gives you that vintage feel & tone , but note that I also use wound strings.
set the level on the boost as low as possible and adjust clean & dist sense , save the input preset and store it for next time you plug the boost
remember that input settings can be saved on a rig , or locked for all rigs.
you could also use the dist loop stomp and adjust the internal setting once you've put the suhh into a record send loop
Sweet stuff man, my kif'
I highly suggest Baldringer Acoustic profiles from official rig pack 4 for recording a folk.
C'est celle que j'ai acheté d'occase , une 6i6 , excellente carte , même s'il faut une alim externe.
J'ai aussi utilisé une quad capture de roland en spdiff (sans alim donc plus transportable ) , c'était très bien.
Nice one, my kids introduced me to this excellent track , it's so well written in japanese style
c'est ça, carte son obligatoire, SPDIF de préférence , une carte d'occase fait très bien le boulot
I like the mood , sounds a bit like our great french mellow band 'Air'
Mixing acoustics vs electric bass is not an easy task , I'm struggling myself with my latest project , the jazz bass is too full, I have to revert to the hofner & wound round strings.
Great Mix & Very fine tone on that lead , I guess it's lester ?
Well done, that was fun , I dig the leads
a new PU neck position with
aggressive and scratchy sound
Neck PU & aggressive are opposite to me , when I need an aggressive and scratchy sound I always use a bridge PU & most often a p90 that really shine there with ultimate brightness vs an Humbucker.
You could also use middle position of the lester with 50 % volume of the bridge PU and 100 % volume neck, that will add a tad of twang.
Third solution is a split of the neck PU if the PU has 4 wires.
@G String , yes it's more about complex FXs with several pages of settings like verb & delay.
I personally use it for a rotovibe sim , with or without an exp pedal
check the thread here with rig & clips
extract : A short notice about the rotary, you can achieve a simple but beautiful 'rotovibe' with a speed control.
Just activate : Ring Modulator then adjust settings to Pedal off / MIX 47% / Manual 5.1 for a slow roto or 5.3 for a speed one, 5.2 is great too.
Why can't you distinguish a Vintage Chorus from an Air Chorus? The effect type gets displayed on the left hand side within the effect module. The same applies for a "kind of verb".
you're right, my bad ... What would be nice is being able to distinguish two different spring reverb settings for instance ( on same rig )
Or something else : you tweak a great delay from a preset , save it , forget it ... then load it later and wonder from what delay preset is was based on ?
(and everybody else involved) you should explain why this is.
For instance : I have a rig with 4 verb preset ( I switch to only one at a time ) , I lost track of the kind of verb it is , I'd like to know which does what
Same for a rig with 2 chorus flavors , one is air the other vintage , but I cannot identify them easily
I cannot reproduce such behavior
I also encountered some distortion / clipping while setting some super wet iono verbs , I had to lower main volume as the verb was building too much signal on swells.
Hi , here is a track we have been working on for a few weeks, Lee did all the music & folk guitar , as well as lyrics , singing & mix.
I did the electrics with a fair use of Leslie & ebow.
Enjoy
I underscored the melody in this clip with a new rig ("Angel Voices") with the Ionosphere reverb
excellent choice, I dig the choirs too, I'm bound to test some harmonized lines + choirs next
First noodle with the Formant reverb. I like it!
sounds sweet Sam , you balanced the guitar vs the pad nicely, I guess it's the key to get these verbs sounding great & interesting.
