That is MY point entirely. Hell, everyone here knows that you and some of the other better-outfitted vets have hardware and software falling out of every crack. But while we progress at varying levels, we have to make due with what we have.
Every third (worthwhile) question here is answered with some HIGH BUDGET response:
- "Hire a real guitarist"
- "Get a real string section"
- "You'll need a real preamp for that"
- "You can't make music with that! You need PRO Tools HD...." Blah blah blah...
To give a future-looking answer without addressing the immediate need is like telling a hungry man to plant a garden so that ONE DAY he'll have food.
And given that you have nearly all the plugins, why not offer your opinion on which of THEM bests serves the OP's purpose?
I'm really not getting the HH forum sometimes.... |
Although, I totally agree with Tony, PeeWee is spot on with this response.
The time has already come where pre-amps can be avoided via USB. Now don't get me wrong, most sound like sh$t! But never the less the tecnology is here. There are many plugs that add saturartion, distortion, eq, harmonics, etc..... Compressors have been modeled to the point where they are 90% there.......why is it such a strech of the imagination for techology to advance with the ability to capture the character of a pre and put it in a plug?
Blah Blah Blah the OP asked a question and as crazy as it sounded to some of you, it was not a crazy question at all becuase software vendors are already offering just what the OP asked.
