Just wanted to say I've tried pretty much every Tubescreamer emulation out there and the Mokafix one is some way more faithful to my ears than the rest, although the others aren't unusable or anything. I don't own a TS-808 but I do have a hardware TS9DX which is very similar in TS9 mode, I really don't mind sticking Cream Tube in the chain rather than my hardware pedal. If you were going to keep working on Cream Tube, the extra modes from the TS9DX would be a nice addition to add some versatility, lets you use it on bass as well without cutting the bottom end.

Wait, another Sansamp clone? I thought the "noAmp" is already a Sansamp stompbox capable of handling bass sounds.Mokafix wrote:http://www.mokafix.com/bassrider.html
Unless, and this is what I have the impression, it was actually modeled after the GT2 (which even resembles the look), and you now work on a BassDriver DI clone.
If that is the case, it's definitely on my wishlist.

Mokafix,
thanks for the fantastic work you do - i stumbled by accident over your tube screamer sim and though i don't own a real one, to me it sounds just like a real pedal with exactly the behavior one would want from hardware and the demo sounds very convincing - almost indistinguishable. I'd say your sim has a tad less bass or "fullness" and a bit less "punch" to the attack, but is otherwise spot on - i didn't believe it was possible to get THAT close - no need to get a real TS after hearing this.
What i find most amazing is tat you keep improving the models all the time and don't stop at a point - what most bigger companies do - kudos for that!
Looking forward to the wahs as everything out there is harsh and grainy and not vocal enough, etc. etc. - and i'm sure your wah's will be fantastic.
In case you have a place for this in your busy schedule at some point - here's my small wish list - please, any one of these would make the world a better place, especially nr. 1
1. Uni-Vibe (Shin-Ei) - what's out there (Amplitube Hendrix and the vibe from that free sim pack i don't recall the name of don't sound right. The AT3 one is not bad though) To me this would be the single most fantastic effect if it were done by you and if it was on par with all the fantastic stuff you've put out. I suppose this is a very complicated effect to model? but it would be well worth it. I'll soon have an Ultra Vibe II (hopefully), but i'd still be very interested in this effect and would buy it without hesitation.
2. Tycobrahe octavia (Chicago Iron version or maybe an original?) or Octavio pedal (probably Dunlop reissue as originals are probably almost impossible to track down). Your Fender Blender sounds fantastic by the way - so thick and full. These other two, especially the Octavio are a very different flavor. I have the Dunlop Octavio, but would none the less buy an authentic recreation of it.
3. Tone bender - all of the MK's as variations
4. Treble Booster
5. Tim and Timmy
6. Fulldrive II
7. Anything that's vintage and 60's, early 70's - some colorsound overdrives, some maestro stuff - if it's as good as the previous releases - anything just sounds great! (i know, a bit slimy again, but it's true!
)
Keep up the great work!
All the best,
VintageCharlie

p.s. is the "Voks" setting on the wah a Vox McCoy, a v846 or a v847 Vox wah? - i very much hope it's one of the first two (crossing fingers)

Oh, and as far the requests for an amp sim suite go - i think there are pretty good options out there already - like Revalver (though many of the sims there are voiced too much on the bright side - but that can be easily solved by simply keeping the brightness knob low). BUT, i think what's the biggest problem with amp sims is - that's the cabs. Until now red wire are the best in my book. And i think to get a significant improvement in "amp sims" there has to be made a major step in some technologies to get the cabs sound right - these are the "bottle neck" to my ear, not the amp simulations.

Sorry for the avalanche of replies, but two more effects that would be fantastic is a tube/transistor version echoplex sim (i think the ones out there right now can't be really called sims) and a good leslie sim (maybe more variations of it - one that can go in front of an amp and one that works better after the amp and is maybe a more authentic sounding one). For now to my ear the MDA leslie sim sounds best - quite close to the SRV cold shot tune, but not there yet. AT3 advertised their leslie cab sim as a big feature, but to me it doesn't sound that great - maybe i haven't experimented enough with it, but i actually find the mda more authentic.
I'm about to order a Radial ProRMP just because of Mokafix's effects - to get these as a "real" stomp box to my tube amps.

Hi, thanks a lot for your interest, and sorry I couldn't find much time to reply lately.
I'll add your suggestions to the wish list.
Regarding cabs and leslie, they are very different from stomp boxes and amps, because they involve physical modeling.
In a cab impulse you got a blend of what is due to the cone, cab wooden box, room around it, and of cousre the mic.
Same for the leslie.
I also believe the cab is one thing that definitely requires much attention and is responsible for what you actually hear in the end; but making it genuine requires much work, and would benefit from more advanced testing conditions than what I have now. One day maybe...
and to compyfox : yes, the bassrider is a BDDI.

If you're taking requests for future projects, how about a virtual recreation of the classic Scholz Rockman?

As I sit here in my room infused with the sweet smell of heated oils of frangipani, I am going through all these amazing stompboxes and FX. I'm really looking forward to a good cab simulator. I understand it would be a big undertaking. Physical modeling is tough work, but I think that impulse-based solutions is good enough to my ears.
I know that Guitar Rig is a good solution for cabinets, but I prefer impulse-based cabinet simulators. There aren't too many, but Revalver is another good one.
But your stomp boxes, Wah and FX are the very best out there!

Mokafix, thanks for the quick reply! Is something like uni-vibe and the echoplex tape echo also extremely complicated or is it still within the domain that you usually work?
What about the leslie "sims" in pedal form that don't simulate the cab - would these be possible at some point or does it also involve some complex stuff?
I understand cabs are a whole different story and i think that for now the red wire impulses really do the job well, as far as current technology allows it at least.
In case you find time for this, please let us know what the Voks setting is - a v847 or v846 - i can't wait for this VST to get out
All the best,
VintageCharlie
