Re: Help with Sitar effect by on 2007-02-27 15: The patch on the POD is just to get the most out of the sitar that is IN the Variax, it won't make a guitar sound like a sitar. Because I have the Variax I have not needed to program a sitar patch but I have used envelope filters (auto wah) to get sitar sounds out of a guitar in the past.

It's a patch that uses the Auto Swell & Reverse Delay to get the flavor-sitar always sounds like a backwards guitar to me. The patch and clip were done very quickly just to see if it was even worth looking further. I tried using the Auto Wah which has more of that sitar twang but, because there is no Mix parameter, i felt it was too overwhelming so i went back to the Auto Swell. There are a couple of Synth patches that might be of use also but, because they are mono, you can't drone with them.

One is the unique design of the bridge, which creates a buzzing sound, and the other is the presence of many additional sympathetic strings. In order to get this sound from an acoustic guitar, you would have to dramatically rebuild it from inside out.

If you try this method try to find a cheap used twelve string banjo. Sitar banjos sound awesome!
