Thanks for the love guys! Make sure you check out the tips on the high gain amp! I really wanted to shed some light on just how versatile it is using the tight knob!

Thanks for this. I've had your plug in for a few months, and being a more senior aged guitarist, who has inevitably reached the point of confusion with technology, this is a real help.

The amount of love and info you put out about your plugin is so awesome. I was blown away by the amount of presets that you made and included compared to other neural dsp plugins then i found your youtube and saw how much time you put into showing the ins and outs of it which made it an easy buy. Thanks for the video!

Let me jupt say that I am a Petrucci fan but I end up getting your plugin because of the synth and ambient presets. Well worth it at 50% off.

@grooveduke Ай бұрын

Can somebody help me with the following issue: everytime I play on the high gain amp I have to put the gate almost at 70% when I play palm mute to get it without hiss. This makes it impossible to get feedback or good pinch harmonics . Tried it on like 4 guitars....still no succes. Help would really be appreciated.

So happy you got to put this plug-in out man! I picked it up finally earlier today... I've previously just had the Plini/Wong plugins. I have been playing with it only a few hours but I wanted to say first of congratulations (fan of yours since 2016 when I took your Musicism course) and second HOLY F did you bring the presets!!! I have had so much fun with the synth especially and I'm still finding my way around. I like the addition of the Freeze feature on the verb too man, that will be a cool extra and also I find those to be a nice practice tool as well. I've barely scratched the surface but saw you posted this today and wanted to say again, thank you for all the work that went into making this, it's badass!

Dude, this was an awesome deep-dive/explanation/clarification. I was one of those folks wondering about the noise on the high gain amp, and after seeing this and adjusting my own approach a bit accordingly, it's so enjoyable. The plugin was great to begin with - the clean and pushed tones are absolutely stellar. But having a different perspective on the gain use here really gave me a better understanding of how to use the amp as a metal head who's sort of always just dimed an OD with the drive zeroed ahead of a high gain head haha. This video cleared up a bunch of misconceptions I had on the user-end, so thanks a ton, man. Glad to see you doing well, and cheers to future happiness, health, and success. And that EBMM looks stellar...

I've been playing around with this plugin all morning after buying it last night (with minutes to spare before the sale ended). Since I'm a Victory Amp and a QC user, and given that I play a Strat most of the time, I figured it would be right up my street. I wasn't wrong. Endless possibilities. I love the clean and medium gain channels. I haven't even scratched the surface of the high gain channel yet, but everything in the plugin is so usable. Great job, Rabea and the Neural team!

@EuphoricRaccoon Жыл бұрын

Yours is the best plugin for me mate. You just need to tweak it a little more than the others that come more out-of-the-box- ready. But I've achieved the best clean tones, ambient tones, slightly overdriven, breakup and high gain with this. I set it so I get Fender cleans and Marshall distortions. The fuzz with Octaver is to die for. The compressor is godsend. I'm not even mentioning the synth because that's just a cherry on top. Everything else is just THAT solid.

Rabea, thank you soooo much for working to produce this, ‘does it all’ plugin. I also have the Nolly and Petrucci offerings and frankly, now have far too many choices, lol. There simply isn’t enough hours in anyone’s lifetime to explore every permutation of what you have created here. One point that may sound daft to all you pros out there; I don’t (yet) have the Quad Cortex and wanted to know, do I need this in order to get the best out of an additional expression pedal like the EV-1 or is there another way to link this type of pedal into the plugins?

The plug-in is absolutely killer. I enjoy playing with it a lot from clean to bluesy to high-gain sounds. I'm not completely sold on the new guitar I have to admit. Hoping there will be other finishes and styles. It's the matte finish with the bright maple and gold hardware that doesn't quite hit my taste. It doesn't look as premium as the Sabre in my opinion. The maple would look great if it was darker, like the roasted maple neck. I'm also not entirely sure whether I prefer the Bare Knuckles over the Ernie Ball pickups in the Sabre. The Sabre is already a very versatile guitar. One thing I trust Rabea blindly is that the neck will feel absolutely amazing. I love the neck on my Chapman ML2 Bea Standard so much.

@StanSinitsky Жыл бұрын

I love your plugin, man. Tbh honest noise was the reason I got it, 'cause all these heavily distorted massive tones blended with fuzz, octaver, and synth drive is something I was looking for. Now I can achieve the sound I was looking for with one plugin instead of three, and that's really cool. It's a great tool for ambient tones, walls of sound, and sound design. We really have lots and lots and lots of plugins that do tight "djenty" thing like Nameless, Omega, Nolly, Abasi, Cali, Gojira, and so on. But we don't have much Victory Kraken ampsims with fully functional synth that you can blend in however you like. I think that at this point we need more unique ampsims that do their own thing and do that well instead of another 5150 recreation. I personally want to see more stuff like Plini (beautiful cleans), Cory Wong (low gain blues/funk tones), Tim Henson (multivoicer), and your plugin. That said, great job on designing this thing!

Hey Rabea, there's a little bug on your archetype (which I couldn't replicate with Gojira/Nolly/Plini/Petrucci) and I tried telling Neural DSP but it went nowhere. When I use gradient tempo increase over let's say 8 bars in my project the CPU usage goes through the roof to the point where even a really good system can't keep up with an almost empty project. It's as if it's recalculating the algorithm with every tiny BPM increase. Initially I thought maybe it's the reverb/delay that's causing this problem but disabling them makes no difference. Maybe it's a DAW issue (I use Reaper), but as I mentioned earlier it's not a problem with other Neural plugins. So, if you ever get a chance let them know. Thanks! Edit: just remembered when I was figuring this out I used 2 plugins to imitate a stereo setup, and a way to slightly circumvent this problem was to use VST3 plugin on one of those and VST2 on another. Hopefully this info will help narrow it down.

It’s a sample delay based on the TC mimic. It literally shifts a mono signal into the stereo field, by adding a sample delay, which can be controlled by the dial there. 6.0ms is what it’s default is. It’s a pretty Cool effect.

Got it last Tuesday. What a great plugin. But I'm having problems recording with logic. The sound in the DAW isn't the same as standalone. It feels very different, even on the clean channel, it seems it has more gain, than on the standalone version (using the same presets). Feels more muddy. I'm I the only one with this issue? Is there any trick? I have buffer at 128/256 and low latency mode active. I open the plugin and choose mono to stereo, to be able to hear the delay and reverb. Using universal audio Apollo twin x. Thank you for all you wonderful work. You are a great inspiration my friend :)
