I have NOT REALIZED that the OP 'need to focus on the recordings, not the gear' (He his is probably more experienced than you because he owns a few real nice amps, but you not). . . nor that one of his postings make him look 'even more stupid' as you said.
Possible even your website makes you look stupid (and me, I took time to visted it) because you've stated every TFK valve you have swapped. Is this a kind of unique selling proposition for a project place with generic equipment? . . . Maybe you should focus on recording in regard to the time factor of 2700 postings. . . That finally forces me to realize a haughty a$$ cramp with shades who stands for another example that shows that people from the third rank often have the largest big mouth<>content discrepancy and rude communication ethics -in contrast to many big player who are enjoyable, well-meaning and informative in such topics . . Some of the characteristics that possibly contributes a part to persistent success. Meanwhile, encroaching snappy upstarts with a behavior problem that is not justified by their talent are the swin flu of the biz. As always IMO after 20h without sleep
To Katoo:
About every 3 years I've a closer look to the virtual amp market. Just to know if something new was developed that has a kind of real amp response and tone. Probably it's me but I am only able to dial in a real amp. Sometimes I am using a Pod XT for clean'ish picking or single notes when I am to lazy to switch on a real amp (and have to wait for the right amount of electrons). But for a round distorting I have not found any modeller that is able to deliver it without a metallish top end, graininess or an always the same sounding basic sound (like the sansamp, which is analog) Starting this thread asking for opinions and sharing experiences is fair enough. Now I know not much more . . even as a hardcore amp user I am pretty open so I'll give ampfarm a try on some future occasion. So thanks to you and to the posters who risc their reputation here  and give a constructive input. |
What the hell are you talking about man? I started out as a Rock Producer, miking Mesa and Marshall Cabs and miking real drums. I still produce rock artists, not as much as I used to, because I found my niche and clients, get with the times man.
I even had a rock band 2 years ago and was ready to sign on Roadrunner Records, I wouldn't say the same about you. Last but not least, all the songs we did were recorded by me, with a Diezel VH4, Tama Drums, Peavey bass into Ampeg bass cab... Yeah ok, amp simulation my ass. Don't diss when you don't know.
I sold my own Rock gear (Roland TD12 Drums, Tama drums, Marshall DSL half stack) because I don't make that music anymore, and I enjoy producing RNB/Pop/Electro a lot more. Kept my 2 guitars though.
