Hey there everyone!
This little dude right here is aimed at the AMT owners and at the folks that are curious about how I get my tone for the lessons here:
Hope I inspired you guys having one, to explore it and get super tones, so please let me know if you'd like to know more

Nice vid Cosmin.
It's informative and sounds good. You've encouraged me to turn some knobs 
. Btw do you use shiba drive with preamp?

It sounds great! Does this pedal work good recording by line?

The SS20 includes a cabinet emulator, so you can record direct with it. It's just a simple filter though, so it's not going to fool anyone into thinking it's a real cabinet, but that's part of the charm of the SS20...you get a lot of the tube sound.
Thanks for the video Cosmin. I like your customized Gain Crunch knob
.p.s. I've always liked the Johnny Cash version

I've just discovered a wonderful setup for CCR or other vintage rock.
Volume 4 Bass 4 Middle 7 Treble 6 Crunch gain 3
Best works with Vox ac-30 or marshal plexi impulses.

Mate, what's all the deal with these impulses?
I don't know anything about them..

Uh. It is a cabinet emulation plugins. Instead of using a cabsim out you plug in output. And with lecab you can load various variants of mic and cabinets.You just get more flexible tone

Ohhh! Very interesting - how do you use them actually?
Posted by: Jouve Feb 20 2013, 01:27 PM
Uh. I'm not good at that but... 
Cabinet impulse responce is a small file recorded in a studio with an actual cabinet - it is the exact sound captured by mic.
So I put the preamp in the begining(Output hole), then the signal goes to my soundcard- and then to the reaper. In the reaper i load this vst over my guitar recording track http://lepouplugins.blogspot.ru/2010/12/lecab2-vst-for-windows.html .
Then open that impulses wav in the lecab - for example this ones http://tonevampire.blogspot.de/p/what-is-tonevampire.html .
And record.
There are loads of high quality IR in the internet. Some of them are free and some aren't.
This is a good forum to read about it: http://www.guitarampmodeling.com/viewforum.php?f=32
BTW amplitube revalver and other modeling software uses the same technology sometimes that also works.

I imagined it would be a VST of some sort - very interesting indeed Thanks a lot mate! Say - when will you post some new AMT recordings?
