Title: pedal steel voice

Hi,
I am interested in the Pedal Steel Guitar, and wondered if anyone had settings or advice on how to get a realistic voice. I have a PSR S910.
Thanks

Try the Aloha Guitar and turn the "Harmony/Echo" button effect on. Then when you slap the key hard you will hear a SLIDE. If you try to use the wheel to bend the notes, I don't think this works well.

I currently use on my S950 the S.A. "PedalSteel" with the "Harmony/Echo" button effect on. I use this one because I prefer to create my own BENDS using the Wheel.

Here is a recording of my using the PedalSteel sound on the Chorus of the song, which the song begins with as an example.

Thanks DrakeM. Sounds very realistic. Like your rendition of the song.
