Electronic engineering sucks

[@zerstaerker]

@@SurecDs-dw7uo Electronics without the 'engineering' part on the other hand can be a lot of fun. Important is a basic understanding of signal flow. Once you understood what the most basic signal voltages and processors in a modular synth do, you kinda get a feeling for that stuff. Electronic components like ICs, transistors, pots, switches, resistors, capacitors are like modules in a modular synth, they just do certain tasks and processing of incoming electric voltages on a lower level and you there's plenty of instructions on how to combine them according to what you wanna do out there on the internet. Even without some kind of electronics degree or deeper understanding of the circuits you'll evolve into getting a better understanding of what the components do so you can tweak or replace them to taste or combine them in other ways. Big rabbithole. I will now force myself to stop the infodumping on you. :D

All of these things are amazing considering what we had 20 years ago having said that i just love the thump and "feel" of a tube amp through a 4x12 cab its indescribable but if you know you know

[@81giorikas]

Yeah but again, this is not what these things are supposed to do. So you and I shouldn't compare. It is different. Coming from a guy that yesterday used two 4x12 and two 1x12 combos running together with multiple routing and effects I get what you're saying. How the hell am I suppose to drag all that to a gig, even if it was in a bigger space which probably will not... Volume aside I have to downsize and find a way to send a signal to the board which will be good and consistent no matter what...that is what these units compare with. That is why Joe Satriani used a tech21 plugin for the latest album and he had every or most hi end amps in his studio it was pretty amazing for him to actually acknowledge that. Many purists would deny to even use that.

[@marianstephan4676]

i never got the use of that. i had to use ear protection because of the volume, micing it sounds way worse than going direct and shit's heavy. i had tons of boutique tube amps and different 412 cabs and now i'm playing a hx stomp/nano cortex board. never looked back.

[@81giorikas]

@@marianstephan4676 It is what it is. As far as inspiration goes, for me it does not compare. I like my bubble of guitar sound bouncing around 3d in the studio. I throw delays and choruses and the dry guitar cabs and it will never ever compare. It also does not compare when you have a loud band, unless you are running twin SRXs with subs you do not have a wall of sound with an hx stomp whereas with a tube amp or solid state and cab you have. Micing does not sound worse it can even sound way better for two reasons. One, you have the micing position changed in real time and second, you do not have blend shit in the IR departments. IRs are long eqs. Multi point. Nothing more nothing less. They are not dynamic and even faking impedance curves via software is not the same feeling or magnet interaction with the speaker. You need real current to have real negative feedback for your amp. But even if you say you don't need that a lot of times these multi point eqs come with power amp curves or room reverb curves eq'ed in. That is what they do. Now, micing a guitar cab always can have problems with close micing with a dynamic mic to avoid the band noise etc and getting insane low end due to proximity. You have to eq out some stuff. IRs don't have that problem but, room reverb is then played in another room and that causes a lot of times phase cancellations and empties the sound in some areas. Which is why a lot of times guitar modelling dudes live tend to get lost in the mix and overcompansate with honky mids...it is what it is. You can hear the alice in chains sound guy analyzing it in tone talk. So guitar cab micing? Needs experience and some work on the fly. Many players don't have the patience or experience to do so. Yeah modelling stuff is great for that. But is it the same or as inspiring as a guitar amp even live? For some it may be. For me it is not. Never ever. I kind of don't like it because I don't hear what I play as easily. I also don't want in ears. If these solutions work for some, more power! I'll try to carry as little as amps effects etc live and it will still be a burden vs modelling but as long as I can I will to be honest. It's about the experience and joy. If it was my money to live with I'd go live as cheap and as efficient in weight as possible. That is why every major band carries lightweight axe-fx racks vs multiple tube amps and cabs.

I think, over the years, this might actually happen. If Line 6 brings out their next modeler, they'd be very wise to allow for NAM blocks, maybe with their own proprietary capturing tech which can be trained instantly on their unit. They would crush the competition.

[@fuzzaldryn9626]

The modulation delay so far flying a little bit under the review radar, albeit it is pretty tweakable and powerful. By setting the delay time short you can get some decent chorus sounds or by setting it even shorter and adding more feedback, flanger sounds. If you apply some high pass and low pass filtering you can make the delay really sit well in your mix without interfering to much with your original signal. So, to me it is a little bit more than just a nice to have gimmick but an actual full replacement of an external delay pedal.

[@PippPriss]

If you can sacrifice the delay, it can also be turned into a Chorus/Flanger, because you can set the time super low up to 6ms and set LFO Depth 🙂And it also has the capability to split the signal before the IR loader, so you can run both into a poweramp+cab and into FoH simultaneously!

[@PippPriss]

I am not Ola, but DIMEHEAD all the way - reason is neither Kemper Player, ToneX nor Nano Cortex can put out one signal with IR, another without. With DIMEHEAD, you can do both simultaneously.
