Alritey then .... this is in the spirit of tone exploration so I'm not doing multiple takes ..... you get the first sucky thing that comes out.
But I did want to put up a few clips before I crashed 'cause I'm busy tomorrow .... so I took the first things I played while distracted 'cause I'm still listening myself to hear how I need to tweak the sounds.
The playing is godawful ...... and out of tune too ....... it's just a treat all the way around.
But it does give you an idea of how it sounds.
Since I'm learning this machine as we go, and I'm still in my earliest editing and it'll take a month or two of gigs before I have it just like I want it .... I think I'll post clips along the way.
Might be interesting to have a record of the progression of my tones.
Tonight is literally my first actual 'sit-down and work on it' time .... and you
can't use the factory presets .... they're terrible .... so your sounds will only be as good as you make them.
I'm finding these kinda dark sounding .... however I almost always have a bass-cut on a guitar modeler into the PA ..... but I do want some more sparkle so I'll have to fix that.
For these I have it in 'stomp' mode ..... which means I have a base sound and three footswitches that I can assign 3 of a zillion stompboxes to.
Tonight I set up two presets in 'stomp' mode. You can have 99.
The clip that's dirty all the way thru is based on a '68 Plexi with a TS808/delay/'verb.
I like how it has good note definition ..... lots of modelers 'mush' things together. But this has some presence to it.
I need less gain on the base sound I think though ..... I want more crunch and less gain at the front of that clip.
The clip that starts out clean is based on a Twin with some sorta distortion I liked and a delay and a chorus.
A good sustainy clean and a fairly realistic stompbox giving you distortion over a clean amp.
It's the RP360 direct into a Teac DR-05 ..... no EQ'ing
Any fx are in the RP360
And don't forget ..... this thing is only 150 bucks so it's less than a tenth the cost of a Kemper.
No way it's gonna do anything as well ........ but I think it has pretty high bang-for-the-buck value.
