Jason here from Fender. Nothing was changed in the amp model for this firmware update. The ONLY difference is the user selectable SIC options for the IR block. This obviously had a dramatic impact on the results. TM Pro will keep getting better with future updates. Great video Jon!

@thomaskuschel89 27 күн бұрын

Thank you, great comparison. Isolated and definitly in the mix I probably would not be able to judge in a blind test which amp is which modeller or the real amp. Soundwise the top modellers are so close that it does not matter anymore which one you pick. It comes more down to usability, number of amps & effects, tweakability and such. I do not need hundrets of different amps in a modeller as long as I can get a good high gain sound and a clean sound. In my opinion the TMP offers both for me and the usability (without a PC) is far superior to the other modellers.

@Team512 27 күн бұрын

I’d be interested in which modeler is the most accurate in a live setting playing through the same cabinet and full range speaker with the same IR. As a gigging guitar player this is more meaningful and telling of how well a modeler can recreate actual amp tones. Great work as always John. Appreciate all of your vids and the work that goes into creating them. Cheers!

@BecomingProductions 27 күн бұрын

That made a massive difference to the TMP alright and now sounds really close. If I was splitting hairs I'd still say it sounds a little less accurate that the QC and Fractal but its so close it doesnt really make a huge difference. All 3 sounded great and those riffs as always were awesome!!

@Turboy65 27 күн бұрын

I've been a Fractal user for years...and a tube amp users for many more years. Anybody who thinks a modern modeller doesn't stack up to the real tube amp, when you take the time to tweak it to match, has his head up his butt,. Yes, they've reached the point where you really can't tell the difference. Particularly iin a recording. Live, there can be some differences in how they feel and how they sound in the room, particularly if you use FRFR speakers. But once we're talking about a recorded sound, YOU ARE THERE.

@heut4384 27 күн бұрын

Yes, I completely agree. I've been dealing with Tube and State Valves amps on every stage, gigg, and recording from the 80s - Current. During the earlier years, we knew, analog can't just touch our REAL amps - especially, RECORDING. Today, they are a lot beyond what I didn't expected. Lol. I had been messing my Fractal in the last 11 months, and man....I can't even hear which is a real amp anymore. Actually, my modeler's alot better than my amp these days. 😅

@Civic. 26 күн бұрын

To be fair this was already the case even before Fractal. The fact is massive bands were using Digitech modelling live and the main reason they stopped was reliability issues not tone. As someone who has always had both tube amps and digital stuff and someone who could actually 100% ABX audio tests before I damaged my hearing, I've been reading ignorant comments from people about modelling for 20 years. Sure many companies did themselves no favours with their presets they shipped with devices. And man this also brings to my mind the amount of ignorant Blackstar hate over the years that made most people overlook the great TVP and Silverline amps. But the reality is there are so many great classic modelling devices and modelling amps and solid state amps that people mostly overlook and there is still so much modelling ignorance in comments I read online. Peavey and Digitech were some but not the only ones who were on it before Fractal came in and transformed a lot of opinions but even now Blackstar modelling is seriously underrated and it's even been interesting to see the opinions about the TMP evolve since release. Here we have in these comments Jason from Fender informing us that this Peavey model is actually unchanged in this update and the only difference now is the impulse curve updates. It's an amazing bit of info when we consider comments and comparisons made up until now and how opinions have suddenly shifted based on false perceptions.

@MichaelLenz1 26 күн бұрын

Not agree. I hear differences using my small iphone speaker. Ampsims are close enough but definitely not the same. I prefer sizzle and rop end variations of a real amp

@Civic. 26 күн бұрын

@@MichaelLenz1 🤣🤣🤣 What a joke. No you can't. 100% you wouldn't be able to pick a tube amp from an amp sim from recordings in an ABX test. Even the best golden ears have failed. And if you think that the difference is sizzle or top end then I'm sure you have no idea what you are talking about.

@MichaelLenz1 26 күн бұрын

@UbiquitousLightOfficial 22 күн бұрын

Interesting session. I really preferred the amp even if only ever so slightly. It has a congested grit in the very high mid range that the axe and QC seem to suppress by comparison. The TMP sounds the closest in that regard but maybe has slightly too much presence. Your demos are great and all the hardware is nice at this point.

There is high-end detail in the real amp and AxeFX that is missing from the QC and TMP. Could be the way they are EQ’d on the QC and TMP. The worse offender for high-end detail loss is the QC. Highs sound rolled off and muffled. There is also less note separation. TMP falls somewhere between the QC and the AxeFX.

All of these sound great, and as a Quad Cortex man myself, I'll always have a little bit of a bias in favor of it lol.

It's great to hear Fender finally nail the EVH thing though, was a shame how bad it was previously.

The helix changes the input impedance based on the first block in your chain (or emulates the input impedance, don't know). This has caused differences when routing back in through usb on my side before, although that was quite some time ago. You never know what they are doing in their signal routing that you might be messing up with a great idea 😉. Anyway, sounds at the output is what matters in the end.

Now is better for sure. Amp sims are still more midrangey than real amp, but not as in previous demo. But. It would be fair to compare amp sims to combination of amp and cab together, not by using Ir on the real amp. While ir should be captured from this particular cab without mic position change. The point here is that the cab and speaker have dynamic characteristics too.

Fractal is definately the king here, QC is a great 2nd (not far off from Fractal) and TMP is slowly getting there, not there yet imo

Fender kills the QC, it sounds thin in comparison. Fractal is still the king.

Why is it that Fender can't get the EVH amp right? At no point ever will you turn an EVH Stealth Presence knob to almost 100%

Read Jon’s comment about presence knob at 100% to match the difference between his 50w and the 100w version which is what is modeled. Presence knob at 100% in this case is correct.
