In John’s words, it’s\u003C/p> \u003Cp class=\"quote\">\"absolutely amazing! I can get something modern or retro really fast and it’s really easy to tweak. Also, the chorus is absolutely iconic.”\u003C/p> \u003Cp>Another preset by JUN-6 V, 13 Strings 3, blesses our ears with a satisfyingly impatient ‘wah wah’ sound:\u003C/p> \u003Cp class=\"quote\">”Jun-6 V once again being an absolute rockstar.”\u003C/p> \u003Cp>He then uses Rev INTENSITY on this track, and we listen to the contrast between the dry and the wet mix. That section of the piece rapidly goes from a linear beam to a multi-dimensional wobble. John then plays it in the context of the whole song. In his words, this is a ‘mean little guy’ that comes to add a lot more story to the piece.\u003C/p> \u003Cp class=\"quote\">”I love to get creative with weird sounds.
