10 Biggest Lies in Audio (PDF Article)

I've heard some modelers I've liked okay (well, one) but I wouldn't say they're close to a real amp quite yet.

I dissagree.  I have a VOX Tonelab that sits right on the money in most instances.  I think they might have been able to do a little better with it's direct tones, but through a good clean amp (I'm using a JC80) I find id to be pretty solid.  Though, at that price it had better be...

Ah - I should clarify that I wasn't thinking of using them through amps when I made the above comment.

I've got some usable sounds out of modeler/amp combos as well - I'm just tired of the endless fiddling. It's such a refreshing joy to simply find the sound on the amp, record it and move on.

I guess, after a few years of endless experimenting with modelers, I'm going through an "anti-modeler" phase.

I played with the Vox in the store - and it didn't knock me out, but it was certainly better than the Line6 crapolla (we're talking standalone here), but I just couldn't imagine paying that much for a modeler. But this stuff is all very subjective - one man's garbage is another man's gold.

No.  I've been recording a project for about 9 months though, so whenever that's done I'll have something.

Sounds like it might not be going so well?

Actually, it sounds like Jeremiah's too busy working on other people's projects to do his own thing!  I DO know the feeling.  FWIW, I have a side project that I get around to occasionally (all instrumental acoustic guitar in various tunings) and, it originally was gonna be titled............................... Resolution 2001!!!!  How's that for drag'n ass?

 

Voodoo's got tit.
