hi guys!what's your opinion about guitar amps simulation in quantum fx?
i think those amps are great...

They are so, so...(not bad, but not really good).
There are better ones out for free:
FreeAmpSE
SimulAnalog
Cortex

Personally, I love 'em. But then I'm not a guitarist - I just occasionally use synth patches similar to guitars on some dub tracks, where it's not essential that I sound exactly like a guitar. Possibly if you were a perfectionist, you'd go for some other plugins.

And I also admit that I sometimes need to process things twice with QFX to get the real dirty sound, but it works for me. I particularly like the reverb on the guitar amps - it's a shite reverb for general use (I wouldn't touch it with a very long bargepole for anything else) but it sounds great as a cabinet spring reverb when mixed in with the other FX. The QFX reverb sounds better on my synth guitar-dub channels than any of my h/w units or any convolution impulses I've tried. It's probably because it's so bad that it works...if that makes sense. After all - cabinet springs aren't exactly the cleanest most spacious reverbs to start with, eh?

Quantum FX V2, now in final testing, has a tasty new guitar amp that beats our old efforts hands-down. Don't worry K, the old one with the shite reverb is still there :)

Existing customers will get their free upgrades soon.

:oops:

I'll make shiny skins for V2 which will be more than slight customisation... after all quantum-fx has gotten me into GUI design

so Dave, does this mean we get a high quality verb with V2??? I thought that was the greatest (and only) real weakness with V1

cheers,
mully
