Choosing Amps and Recording Chains:

AMP MODEL:

Here you can select one of the amps we have modeled. They range from soft clean

sounds to mild distortion to the heaviest metal sounds you can get out of real tube

amplifiers.

WE HAVE NOT MODELED “2012 DIGITAL DISTORTION POST-MODERN MEGA-METAL”

SOUNDS. Instead we have focused on a handful real classy tube amps. If you like the

sound of less organic sounding plugins or digital preamps we recommend you use these.

RECORDING CHAIN:

Select a recording chain to determine the basic sound you will get.

The names of the chains are an indicator for which cabinets and microphones have been

used.

Note that the OVERSAMPLING & BUFFER SIZE settings directly affect the quality of the

sound of the recording chains. With very low settings the cabinets loose low end and

high end. We propose to use buffer sizes of 2048 or 4096 samples and 2x or 4x

Oversampling for rendering / bouncing and mixing for sure.

TIP:

We recommend you browse through a few presets first. Check which amps and

recording chains you tend to like the most. Then select a recording chain and an amp

model and tweak them to your liking. Or just use one of the presets and alter it until it

sounds perfect for your needs. Then store it under a new name so you can recall it easily.

Guitar Amps / Preamps: (details next page)

This is where you dial in the amount of distortion and the EQ setting of the preamp to

your taste. Crank ‘em up! Play them loud!

The different amp models have slightly different controls, but they are self-expainatory

as they behave just like any guitar amp. If you read until here we assume you are a guitar

player and have used an amp or preamp before... ;-)
