Not! Yet another amp sim...

[_niko_]

Hi,
The title says it all. This is still in an early stage, basically I am just looking for some feedback as to what really sucks and what sucks a little less about it

It's an emulation of a three channel tube guitar amp and has all the features you love:
1) it's an alpha
2) it doesn't have a gui
3) it eats cpu for breakfast


Sarcasm aside, I'd appreciate some feedback. Here you go:

Thanks!

*EDIT* version has been updated...

What really sucks:
mono in
when gain is at 0, it makes a funny burbling sound and denormals like nobody's business.
Harsh on the high end
Everything sounds a bit Radio Shack

what sucks a little less:
good for lofi speaker effects

Niko, you rule! Is this Tubebaby 2.0? Downloading now, will test tomorrow.

Hmmm. Not a lot of good there yet, it seems.

I suppose, but there aren't a lot of lofi speaker effects around, so this might fill that niche.

Thanks for the feedback and for taking the time
Obviously "good for lofi speaker effects" is not really what I was after, so I'll try to improve it...
I've updated the archive with a new version that fixes the denormal bug with gain at zero, and also changed the sound a bit and removed the speaker mix param (for now), also the cpu usage should be a little lower. So more feedback would definately be appreciated...

Cool, Niko, I'll try it tonight. I'll miss the burbling sound, it was rather funny.

[Will Turner]

Thanks Niko ! Nice Work .

Can we still get the original alpha, so we can sample the burbling sound? Just kidding, I'll give it a try tonight.

[shamann]

Damn, I should have sampled it.

Good,good another amp.Thank you very much, In Ultra Ch. this plug sound me what I like...
And I like "no gui", it's perfect for job in Traction(IMO of course)

[_niko_]

Oh, thanks for the bump and the feedback, rather unexpected after 3 months

I've changed quite a bit in the meantime, so now that you motivated me again, there might be a new version coming in a few weeks...

cheers,

Niko

Awsome - try and make the stereo image a bit better though, also there are enough lo gain amps and stuff around, add a 4th channel for METAL!!! (think 5150/VH4)

[zmora]

Niko, if you thought about Gui, one version without , please.In Traction it's more comfortable working without any funcy "pictures".

[zmora]

No!!!!No fountains, palms and Niagara!!!
It should be simple, light for CPU and sounds "normal" at last.
Without funcy hardwares simulations eg.4x12, US ,British etc.
Do you all know Cream Machine of Hughes&Kettner?
Three knobs are enought for good result.
Simple the Best !!!!
