Some jo... I mean IK seems to be saying next week. I'm not holding my breath (no offense to IK)

Thanks, again

.

Next week would be nice.

I am gonna watch this, I hope it does have a nice and FAIR copy protection system, a personal licence key like reaper would be the best, as I may be interested in this new model of custom shop...

It will be C/R with up to 5 auths (or that is how it's been for a while) and currently if you clean install on the same HD, you just use one of the C/R's you've already used.

You're really going to love this one...

...SOLDANO!

a. Nice that it's not compressed/limited to hell!

b. I think I also enjoyed the very obvious ringing springs too (something I've learned you CANNOT avoid with trem guitars.....blocked or not!)

That is hardly ideal, but it could be worst...

I will really keep looking for news on Amplitube.

Thanks.

Hmm. Colour me interested in the Soldano model. Get some VHT/Fryette stuff and I'm yours forever!

The 1x12 Open Modern cab is based on a VHT Pitbull.

We have a new sound example up...
...T•Rex Replica!

I'm still waiting on those Music Man models.

now this sounds really nice - the Soldano clip sounds awful though - only braindead zombies listen to crap like that...

Yeah, not the sound that comes to mind when you think "Soldano". Would be nice hear some lead playing.

See, this is what confuses me. I listen to that soldano track and think "interesting" but it's not quite what I personally would try to achieve. HOWEVER, when it comes to playing in a mix, I'm certain it's "that sound" to some degree.

*sigh* after all these years I'm just more and more confused about what is that great tone and what isn't. I've posted a ton of clips and have received very little feedback so it's hard to know what I'm doing right and what I'm doing wrong.

I like all the tracks I've heard so far other than how squashed some of the tracks are (unless there is a limiter in 3.5 it makes it obvious that outboard gear was used.....hmmmmmm maybe t-racks???)

Totally agreed.
Sounds more like a Peavey Valveking 112 to me ...

Here's some real Soldano tone :

especially the closing solos

(probably with a little boost from a Klon at times, for convenience mostly)
Also check out '90s era Knopfler, Clapton, Gary Moore, Lukather ...
Very different tones and players, but the Soldanos can be heard clearly - think JMP Marshall with a shot of Mesa MkII mixed in, ideal for fat, singing lead lines and, with the guitar volume rolled down, capable of decent crunch- and clean tones, though these sure weren't the reason behind most Soldano purchases.

Ymmv,
susiwong

PS: Not judging the AT Soldano right now, only the soundclip

Amplitube next models? What will they be?
