Van Hagar

For Van Hagar by Van Halen

I created this patch to simulate the range of tones used between "5150" and the "Balance" albums. This is a STEREO patch and you must use L and R speakers to get the most out of it. All of the pitch shifting occurs on the L channel and the delayed reverb is in the R channel. After researching his setup for these albums, this was a nice compromise between all of them. I understand there were subtle differences between them in the reverb or amount of micro-pitch shifting but this will definitely get you in the ballpark to play any of those albums. No snapshots yet. Just wide open Poundcake!
