Members Neilrocks25 Posted September 23, 2010 Members Share Posted September 23, 2010 OK I need to get may ass back to Japan soon, so I may have to sell My AXE-FX. Disclaimer. this breaks my heart as I really really like it (axe-Fx) a lot, but I miss my wife and son so much I have to get back to see them.I am still hoping I wont have to sell it. So what's the best Amp Modelling software to tide me over till I get another amp and hopefully another Axe-FX I am looking at AmpliTubeGuitar RigReValver What else? Oh I prefer mid gain JCM800 like tones...Also I hate line-{censored}s crappy software it has to be a lot better than that.

Members Shine Posted September 23, 2010 Members Share Posted September 23, 2010 Jamvox good stuff, sounds much better than the Line 6 pod and revalver i had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LordOVchaoS Posted September 23, 2010 Members Share Posted September 23, 2010 Save money. Download everything from AcmeBarGig and Poulin. Better than all hardware modelers, except the Axe IMO. Most of the AcmeBarGig amps are AMAZING! For the most part I just use Poulin's cab impulse loader.

It allows you to change components if memory serves me correctly. Actually I think all 3 have demo's. Just give them a try or you can look for the free ones that don't come bundled together neatly.

Members Brandenburg Posted September 23, 2010 Members Share Posted September 23, 2010 I like Amplitube 3.. I used to use Guitar Rig 4 but two nights ago I installed amplitube 3 and was blown away by some of the sounds i was getting.. This is now my goto amp modelerI have revaler but haven't messed with it much. I need to reformat my PC soon and when I get things back to normal I will give it a serious try too. I believe revaler is the most tweakable software modeler out there which is both a good thing and bad thing IMO.. You might spend so much time tweaking the software you spend very little time playing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TomCTC Posted September 23, 2010 Members Share Posted September 23, 2010 I use a combination Guitar Rig 4, Amplitube 3, Softube Vintage/Metal amp room and the amp sims included with Logic Pro 9. They're all great, they fit in different mixes and have different applications. I ilke GR4 for just jamming around though, the effects on it are fantastic. Most of my tracks end up with the Softube models and my AC30 miced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really, if you're looking for a software modeler all the bases are covered. They sound and feel great too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tele62 Posted September 24, 2010 Members Share Posted September 24, 2010 Amplitube III is way better than anything else I've tried (other than Vintage Amp Room). Revalver is great as well. There's a really fantastic freeware modeller called the AcmeBarGig 'Shred Suite', give it a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're all great, they fit in different mixes and have different applications.This is pretty sound, but as a fellow user you may be interested to know that I use Amplitube 3 at home if I ever leave my Axe at the studio (not very often, but occasionally happens).Obviously none of these plug-ins comes close to the plastic creaminess of the , but Amplitube is my preferred software plug-in out of the ones I've tried (includes GR4, Revalver, Softube Vintage/Metal and the Logic 9 amp sims). I prefer the way it can be made to sound and I prefer the interface. JMHO, YMMV etc, etc.Sorry to hear you have to sell the Axe, but nice to see you have your priorities right. Good luck mate.

Members rushtallica Posted September 24, 2010 Members Share Posted September 24, 2010 I like the cheaper version of Revalver (HP), actually running into a tubescreamer before the card, though I only like the 6505/+ models. I also like the free one that starts with TX followed by some numbers that's based on an Engl preamp. I run a graphic eq before that one sometimes. I'm admittedly not very good at putting things together with the favorite cabs/impulses most people use and don't like the results much from anything I've tried other than the Revalver and TX ones.

(You don`t like Line6, but the bean runs on a PSU)FWIW, my ancient original Pod actually sounds decent with a ts-9 in front.It gets a clearer tighter signal, and it really helps.I hope you get to see your family soon, Neil.

Members ke2 Posted September 24, 2010 Members Share Posted September 24, 2010 GSP1101 doesn't have a wall wart. No, I guess most of the HW modellers with warts are the desktop ones. The Johnson J-station is the best sounding one I`ve heard of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members FastRedPonyCar Posted September 24, 2010 Members Share Posted September 24, 2010 I've got an old Korg G1 distortion processor from the mid 90's that still surprisingly works quite well that I could send you to use till you're back on your feet with gear. That or a DOD tech 8 processor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
