A truer pick on distorted and clean guitars
Distorted guitar notes now start a touch sharp and settle, as a hard-picked string does, and the clean electric guitar has a clearer pick attack with less hiss.
Two small changes to how the player's electric guitars sound. Both were picked in a blind listening test against the sound as it was.
Distorted and overdriven guitars
A string that's picked hard starts very slightly sharp and settles into its pitch over the next half second. The player's distorted and overdriven guitars now do the same: more on low strings and accented notes, less on soft ones. You'll hear it most on palm-muted riffs and on leads.
Clean electric guitar
A clean note used to start from a short burst of noise, so every note began a little differently, with some hiss on top. It now starts from the shape of a pick leaving the string, which gives a clearer attack and less hiss.
Acoustic guitars and bass sound as they did.
