Can you elaborate a little more? This sounds like a "sustainiac" killer solutioI've got eternal sustain at my bedroom-studio, at very low volume, by placing a small Bluetooth speaker between the guitar and my body (while sitting at the chair)
I have a Vibesware resonator and it is very coolI have one of these and it's amazing,
I have one of these and it's amazing, takes a bit to get used to but gives very natural sounding sustain, even when playing on headphones. The guy in the video is using AxeFX
I also have an EBow and the Gamechanger Plus pedal, those are great too but the Vibesware Resonator gives the closest thing to actual amp feedback.
With distorted tones, added bass = harmonics in the bass and midrange frequencies = mud. You won't be able to pull that out in the final mix.Has anyone tried crafting a preset with an artificially heavy sub bass freq to add energy? Use this for sustain while recording. Then in the final mix cut the lows back out.

I've one of these for several years now. Really cool device in that you can get feedback/sustain on more than one string at a time as well as you can move your guitar around to find different tones. IMO it's the closest thing to vol/amp feedback there is. I used it on the intro to Van Halen's Mean Streets to replicate the feedback Ed got on the recording. I was able to find the spot for the first but the second feedback eluded me. Wow, this was 4 years ago. Time fly's.

There's reverb Hold and delay Hold, but they're, as you say, looping. Sustain is a different animal.I understand the physics of how sustain works, but couldn't the Axe FX III conceivably have something that is effectively a micro-looper so it captures the note and then essentially loops it in some way to provide the sustain?
Yes. I have one of my guitars fitted with the sustainiac pickup, Its a great piece of kit.. I have also recently ordered the Gamechanger Plus Sustainer - That looks very cool and has been one of my "wish list" back even for the Axe II.... No sign yet tho..For feedback effects it could also potentially mix in the same note a few octaves higher which sounds an awful lot like feedback.
Make sense?
I realize this doesn’t help, but does the venue noted by the OP also require towels shoved into saxophones and trumpets?
You can create feedback loops in the Axe. Bloody hard to control, though. And potentially speaker-damaging.
I tried it once... ONCE!

I do wonder if it would be possible to have some sort of block which is placed after the amp block or in parallel, whereby you can some how link it backwards and vary the amount of the amp's out-putted signal back to the input - and vary it with a modifier like an expression pedal.... May be it's already possible with the send and return blocks... I might have a go at this..
Yeah this is what I would like to see, some sort of sustain block that acts like a sustainiac pickup.I understand the physics of how sustain works, but couldn't the Axe FX III conceivably have something that is effectively a micro-looper so it captures the note and then essentially loops it in some way to provide the sustain? It could potentially be enabled or disabled with an expression pedal - the pedal is pushed down and it keeps the note going.
For feedback effects it could also potentially mix in the same note a few octaves higher which sounds an awful lot like feedback.
Make sense?
How about the Digitech Freqout? Some very cool tones in there...
