I've read in some sites that S-Gear is a great guitar amp emulator... I honestly never tried it or paid attention to it...
Do you know it? Is it that good? I'm curious. -------------------- My lessons

Sure, it's up there with Helix and TH3 and Amplitube. I don't know if I would call it "best" though . -------------------- Cyber-industrial music and video animations:

Thanks guys! There is a demo version so I'll try it later.
The "best" tittle at this thread was to attract your attention. -------------------- My lessons

I've always liked the Waves GTR one with models by Neil Citron and Paul Reed Smith:-

Id say get a demo of that as well! I demoed pretty much all of the amp sims over the years, and the updates. Each one has it's own strengths and it's own tone. A lot depends on the tone you are looking for. GUITAR RIG was my go to sim for quite some time before I found Overloud. I have a thread full of Guitar Rig Presets here as a result. Now I have a thread with each sim I've gotten really in to so there are presets you can download from my profile forum. You can't always tell how a sim sounds by the built in presets. Sooo many are PURE CRAP as was my experience with GUITAR RIG. I only like one preamp, the sansamp emulation. So I used it in pretty much every patch. In OVERLOUD I like the RANDALL heads like the V2.

I have GTR and really like it. The other one I used to really like but don't really see mentioned is Magix Vandal also great for Vintagey Gain sounds, not so good for the real High Gain stuff. Is it a new version of Waves GTR? I don't remember getting cool tones of mine in the past.. -------------------- My lessons

Also check out the demos for some of the amp specific plugins. For example there is a killer ENGL emulation that has a demo. It's incredible in terms of how versatile it is. It's got reverb/delay built in and even the stock patches are nice. Of course you can make your own to taste. It goes from sparkle clean to bluesy crunch to metal chug.
https://www.plugin-alliance.com/en/products...gl_e646_vs.html I did a couple of demos with it. I found it very responsive and very close to the real thing that I also tried. Your mileage may vary. This post has been edited by Todd Simpson: Oct 13 2017, 06:01 PM |

That's cool Todd! The POWERBALL II head sounds really good!
I wonder if anybody tried the Helix standalone software. -------------------- My lessons
