Some of the best effects on electric guitar throughout the instrument's relatively short history have been time based. That is, the process of replicating the original signal, delaying it in time, then modulating its pitch, and finally combining it with the original signal. That process is where flanging, chorus and delay come from, that is the focus oif the Waves Guitar Tonere plug-in.

In the words of the plug-in's designer Tony Maserati, "The GTi was created with all the different guitar players I've admired in mind. I tried to find settings that would be a starting place for getting their sound, from the ˜Clean™ in-your-face sound of, say, Elliott Smith to the wide chorus-y spread of The Police's Andy Summers using the 'Clean Chorus' setting. On the 'Heavy' setting, a bit of level and EQ help your already crunched guitar sound scream through any thick instrumentation you've got. ˜Thick Rhythm' lets you to subtly or substantially make your rhythm guitar sound livelier; it also works great on Wurlis and Horns. The 'Soft Flange' setting is just that; it adds interesting and subtly audible filtering to legato notes or sustained electric guitars. My intention was to make these effects usable in a wide variety of applications. The wild and crazy FX are out there; you already got 'em if you need 'em!"
