Well, if you ask

- Dumble Overdrive

- Mesa Boogie Mark I

- Acoustic 165

- Jim Kelley

- Cornford Harlequin

I guess apart from the Boogie, there might be a snowball's chance in hell for any one of these to be done. Where would you get a Dumble Overdrive from anyway? You could model a Kitty Hawk Standard instead - a somewhat obscure German amp that's supposed to be a dead ringer for a dumble, and can still be had for around 1500 Euros used. Prices are rising, thpugh, as supposedly Billy Gibbons was seen using a pair of those on the ZZ Top european tour.

Hm, I suppose the Vox Valvetronix does a pretty convincing impression of the Dumble...

Rene, why don't you just release the damn thing, and add other models later. You wrote us about a year ago that it was "almost done"....

Cheers

Alex

I don't care for insane distortion that much. Just whack on crunch please! As much crunch as possible.. So much crunch that even a single note sounds crunchy!

Will be there.
So, Rene said four of them are already there, I guess we must decide about the last one....

My vote goes to ... Plexi

No, those are done.

You can chose 5 !

Alex, thats right, but it was a real pain to create the models and it took much time.
I needed to find an easier way.

So around, short before the new year,
I had this idea...
And YES it worked !!!
Did you listen to the new mp3 files ?

The amp now eats all other sims,
soft or hard, for breakfast and is asking for more.

ahhhh I didn't get it that way.....
In that case I would go for:
Plexi
Soldano SLO
JCM 800
Boogie Mark I
AC30

why you never really answer to the questions being asked?

JCM800 ?

If I comment each and every post, I never get done...

But I read, think and listen.

Thanks

However if you don't want to spend your time on something you don't like and/or it's maybe not so popular that's totally understandable.

Just my 2 cents
Let me first finish another few heavy amp models first,
than I do the cleaner ones.

The engine had changed too much, I need to modify it again for great clean/crunchy results.

OK, thanx Rene

@all other guitarheads here, esp. those with some experience on recording amps: I'm gonna start a new thread (in the Production techniques forum) to ask a few questions about a problem I have when recording my amp. So if you have some spare time take a look. Thanx

Here's my wishlist. 5 great amps perfectly simulated...what a dream! no other ampsim can do that yet.
Make it simple! few amps but the most real you can.

( In other words: I don't want to wait another year to see this thing finished :_(

Me not either...

The sound will be super real, the feel be great too.
The tone controls will be the same for each model,
but react and sound different for each amp.
Somehow it needs to be handeled from one gui.

If you want a certain amp tone,
dial it up, adjust it to your needs and play !
Simple but powerfull.

I think finnbio meant "why dont you release the ampsim?" you didnt answer the question.. you answered something completely different! the question is WHY? you got your basic models, they sound great. we've been waiting for it a year now. you finish the rest of them later where you'll be more comfortable as well. so why really?

http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic ... start=1560 hihi:

The modeling engine is brand new,
also the distortion engine got modified to hande a
50 times higher/denser drive than XmassTube.
I need to rethink the whole concept.
No problem.

demetrisag · Post by **demetrisag** » Tue Jan 17, 2006 12:04 pm

so when do you estimate? A year from now lets say?

Midiworks · Post by **Midiworks** » Tue Jan 17, 2006 12:24 pm

No, much, much sooner.

Everything happends for a reason.

We got flodded by much water here,
thats why I could not finish and release the amp as planed.
You got XmasTube instead.

A few days later I invented the new modeling engine.
Now I am happy that the flodding happend.

demetrisag · Post by **demetrisag** » Tue Jan 17, 2006 12:26 pm

6 months lets say?

Guitar players, The soundclick MP3 demo page got updated !
