Yeah but without the metal gate they drag a bit, I’ll play around with it more but cool it’s right there at the bottom

If people only knew what was involved in all the testing and tweaking 🤣, glad some notice it

You can also buy it

@@ampspedalspickups not kidding when I say they only provided me with prices for either monthly or yearly. But being human is hard sometimes, Ill look into it again later, Thanks for the response.

You’d have to really love the UI and Fender branding to pick this over a quad cortex (which is the same price in the US). It’s a fair bit cheaper here in Australia which is nice. At the same time anyone who has it in their hands probably wouldn’t complain. It’s great, it’s just pricey and has a lot of room to improve compared to the other boys out there. Almost inevitable with any new unit

Noones touching fractal on sounds, but everyone’s pretty much trumping them on UI. Keen to see what this new rumoured fractal thing is!

@@ampspedalspickupsTrumping? Really? Can we please keep politics out of this

@@drewwebsteraudio just trying to make amp sims great again, complete coincidence

@@ampspedalspickups😂

@@ampspedalspickups I agree when there's a need to create or edit presets on the device itself. 99% will do it via the editor though. Thanks god there's the performance page where you can can integrate ANY given knob of ANY given component on one page. Strike of a genius!

Good idea I’ll chuck it on the list 💪

It works great but I’m not quitting my day job to become a drummer 🤣🤣🤣

Nah, I used an AI stem splitting thing. I was trying to think of the simplest drum beat I could possibly handle, and I still managed to find a way to dumb it down.

Recording drum midi like it’s the year 3024 🤣

I didn’t really show paraddidle off too much but I’ve got a ton of custom songs loaded… decent fun even without the daw side of things

Such a legend

Join discord will probably make it easier to go back and forth. Try the gm midi map inside okw pop punk, could help most of the way. I’ve been using my own midi map conversion method in reaper, I can share it with you in discord. Will probably do a video on it soon but I just want to use it for a couple months to make sure it’s rock solid

Yeah it would be great to have something to generate vocal ideas ontop of jam tracks that we make. I think that kind of thing will come with time, jam mates kind of thing

Eh, once you know what you're doing it takes like 10 seconds to use the plugin "as it was designed", worth the minor time investment.

Yeah, all the tech is impressive and I genuinely think fractal has the most accurate modelling with absolutely everything you could ever want, but something about the warts and all approach means it can take more time to get stuff going… and if you try and do things directly on the unit then yikes. I’ve been watching some vids on the quad cortex and tonemaster pro and they’re dead easy to dial in. I’m certain the modelling is nowhere near as good as fractal but if it gets you going in no time and sounds good enough then there’s enough merit there…. And yeah the fractal pricing in Australia is crazy

Yeah when I see people putting together pedalboards with preamp and fx pedals I just think of the logistical nightmare vs having an FM3/FM9 or Helix etc... costs, effort and redundancies stack up... rather just a single modeller at that point.

Not a bad idea! Any amp sims you own or want to see?

@@ampspedalspickups I own (wink wink) pretty much all the plugins, haha. Maybe try with ML sound AMPED, STL plugins, TH-U, Amplitube, Tonocracy, Mercuriall etc and if you'd like to add anything more. Reason I didn't mention specifics is because I'm not aware (yet) about which plugins you own or will be possible for you. Therefore I just gave the manufacturers names assuming you might be owning some or the other plugins from them. Basically, I need crunch/rhythm/high gain sounds. I think making a video showing the very very basics like, taking a guitar cable, plugging it into your interface, showing where you set your input gain, high-z input, connecting interface to computer, specs of computer like processor + ram configuration, then starting the DAW, routing, buffer size, sample size settings, loading the plugins, setting the input gain and also if you use any trim plugins before the amp sim. I think when Ed S's' video came, you made a video explaining the input gain. So in my opinion you have really understood what Ed meant. Therefore you're the only youtuber yet that I'm asking to make this video. Also the sounds that you are getting from all these plugins in your videos is simply what I desire to achieve. I'm sure many people out there will benefit from the video if you get time to make it. Looking forward to it. Thanks for everything my friend.

Just had a look at the manual Maximum input level @+4 dBu, Gain 0 dB: +13 dBu At the +4 setting on 0 gain you'll have 13dbu of headroom so it's exactly like mine (which says +13dbu). So yeah just follow the spreadsheet for RME and you're good to go! And yeah the line3/4 inputs are the "instrument" ones there. Forgot to say that what makes them instrument is they have the proper instrument impedance. If you use a line level it'll have a different/lower impedence and it'll be a darker sound, the higher the impedence the brighter it is generally. Either way Input3 is the way to go!

BMTH - Shadow Moses Man I could make that mix so much better if I did it again now, great song

@@ampspedalspickups agree, impulse is not optimal, but thanx all the whatever!)

​​@@ampspedalspickupsi made my own one, stoling it from Nickelback Long Road reference. and its best what I had. Cooked from box. I can share it with you

Some say we’re already there 🤣

Yeah they’re super close to each other, crazy good 🤘

Damn that sucks

I’m well versed in the topic I’ve got two videos about setting levels. Everything here was reamped at the same level and the other 3 can handle this gain and Tonex can’t. I’ve tried various specs and it’s all different versions of the same issue. It’s just a different version of the tech compared to the other 3 and the results are pretty different. If I tamed the gain down then Tonex would handle it a lot better

@@ampspedalspickups ah then there must still be issues. I've not used to tone X since Ed brought his video and I had similar results to your captures so I just put it down to that but there must be still something on there. It's a shame really as the tone X is good when you get good results. Great video though I'd never heard of the tonocracy so I'll be giving that a go. 🤘🏻

Yeah the captures are super high quality, very capable

Yeah I've had some "ok" hits with ToneX, tends to be when I lower the gain down. Like even if I profile the same thing a few times it can be hit and miss. I'll be doing a video on "what I want to see from NAM" soon and the capturing side of things will be a lot of what we see from Tonocracy... Tonocracy gets a lot of things wrong (infant software so it gets a pass), but the one thing it does really well is the capturing side.

Yeah I can see it handling digital stuff a bit better and the gain coming out better… the real a,ps definitely have a rawness that it struggles with. Yeah Sydney here 🤜🤛

Go for it! I’d love to get a real savage mk2 at some point, great amps

@@ampspedalspickups Awesome kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ic2Hh6SBztyaZnU.htmlsi=7OXIbJKgvPBES6e0

🤣🤣🤣

They should take boosts and pedals really well. The underlying tech does a good job of probing the amp response. It’s obviously one setting at a time but within that the push and pull response of the amp is pretty good.

Never tried it it. Now I will. Thanks ☺️

Yeah quite a few nam players like genome around. I’ve got it but haven’t used it much honestly, will give it a proper spin

​@@ampspedalspickupsIn Genome you can change Tonestack types , which is very cool
