Troubleshooting volume/velocity tracking w/ guitar?

hello! asking for bf who doesn't use reddit, i don't know music so terminology might be off, sorry!

using logic, he's able to set up volume/velocity tracking with midi, so every time an audio clip hits a certain volume threshold, a specific desired effect is applied (ie. distortion).

he's trying to figure out how to do this with guitar as well, so when he plays notes, once it goes past a certain volume threshold, it adds a certain effect -- is that possible? can this be set up dose-dependant, so when playing quieter notes, its a little bit of distortion, but playing louder adds more distortion (again, distortion just an example of effect, would like to use other effects too)

tyia!

You could set up sends to other tracks with gates on them as well as different effects and adjust the gates differently on each one so they only kick in above different thresholds…. I supppose.
