The story
Tracking electric guitars in a home studio can be a challenge as sometimes even micing an amp and pushing it to get feedback is out of the question due to family/neighbors. Guitar Rig is sometimes the only option but recording direct means no feedback. I wanted to make a way to always have the option to have that sound when I needed it, so I waited till the house was empty, mic’d up my Strat to my Super and turned it up to 11 1/2. The result is The Feedbacker. I can now add layers of screaming feedback to any guitar track I want and now, so can you.
The Feedbacker is 15 different instruments. The setting I call OG, is the one where almost every note comes from a different sample. All the other instruments use only one sample as it’s source so the sounds are much more consistent with each other. Any way you use it, it’s tons of fun and very useful. I hope you enjoy it!
P.S. Also, it responds pretty well to pitch mod so you can emulate whammy bar effects as well.

MY FEEDBACK OF THE FEEDBACKER
I was looking for a Unique Ambient Sound to layer above the Drum Loop that I was working with today, so I decided to make a quick trip here to PIANOBOOK and check-out some of the New Instruments. I found "THE FEEDBACKER" and thought. "Wow, that's an interesting idea for a musical instrument" so, I downloaded it.
It didn't take me long to realize what a GREAT New Instrument this is and how many unique sounds that are designed into it. The "WAVEY 5TH" is simply exceptional and it was exactly what I was looking for. It's Gritty and Edgy with a Smooth Tone that sits beautifully in my track.
I play Guitar and I like to use Feedback in my projects but it can be very hard to control and to use Musically. THANK YOU Michael Blake for this Fantastic Instrument !!!! You did a GREAT JOB “Taming the Wild Feedback Animal” and turning it into a Beautiful Instrument. I’m looking forward to sharing this with my Writing Teams.
Simple Interface, Easy To Use and Works Well with KONTAKT 7 and CUBASE 12.
