Anyone tried Recabinet?

I dunno about this emulated U87, but the real thing has such high sensitivity it's wonderful. You can really bury the gain on it with a compressor/limiter to make it increase between low volume vamping and jazz mute strumming before limiting it for full volume rolloff cranked barrchording.

But I would choose two 57's, parallel wired, single preamp single channel for the main input. Aim one about 1" from the perceived edge of the cone at the last flex-roll, and one about 1" from the perceived edge of the voicecoil (which is easy with greenbacks - the golfball dustcap edge meets the voicecoil just about).

Does this program allow distance miking? Set the 57s on one channel, the second channel do the U87 on and gank the gain on input till it barely feedsback, then back off a hair.

Then pan between channels: the 57 will be meaty and bassy, the U87 is gonna be airy and echoey the way it should. You're trying to get room ambience and echo with it so when you put the U87 in the mix, it's not for clarity. It's for colour.

Geez-us, was that so difficult? That's almost exactly what I'm doing with the 57/U87 emulations (had you not been trolling you wouldn't have missed it); each is running on a separate track. There's not as huge an amount of distance emulations as I thought, but there' almost every imagineable cone/cap/grille combo, and distances ranging from .0-5 inches from what I'm seeing.

Running the 57s both on one channel reduces offphase linearity.

Replying with your alias is ghey.

Do you wish to drag Allah down to your imprurient level, mortal? I throw only the meat of truth to you, and your infidel reply is merely accusations of homosexuality?

[jhale667]

Ah, fuggit.

Whatever...


Here's why the clean tracks are worth keeping...

Sounds pretty clean for not being a JC120!

[jhale667]

Ya think?

Actually, the clean amps emulations were a tweed Bassman and a JC120...

What they need to do for this program next I'd say, is come up with a solution to remote the pedals switches so you could roll the volume but click off the chorus and/or reverbs.

Is there some sort of USB interface you could align with this thing, say, click "effect" then assign "footbutton 1" and enter or some shit?

[GAR]

M Audio comes to mind, I'll check to see what they do for these recording video games..

[jhale667]

The Line6 UX2 interface has two footswitch jacks, I'm sure you could do something of that nature with PODfarm. Not really an issue IMO, or my application, I guess.

My pedalboard's doing just fine in the Amp/Recabinet application too, probably because there's so little in front of my amp's input. And for the record, only 3 things in the FX loop.

[GAR]

I don't see nothing such as a "footswitch assigning" USB remoter, or something on M Audio. But it looks like Avid who bought out Protools, also bought out M Audio!

They had good affordable hardware solutions, so I guess look elsewhere for that.

[jhale667]

Wouldn't need it from M-Audio or Digidesign or whoever; If need be you can get foot controllers for Guitar Rig, Amplitube, etc., as well as whatever Line 6 is offering.
I however, don't need it for this. Any channel or effect switching done on the fly will be done with my pedalboard w/the Boogie and Recabinet.

Kinda wishing I had a webcam, or something besides the stupid phone cam...starting to get some killer results with this.



Phone's mic mushes out, but once I get to the point where I can dump something to an MP3, I'll post it.

In the sub$200 range you have Canon Powershot, which i have, and the Sony version which my chick just got, I like mine better even though its 2 years older.

Both are okay, they come up recognized in Windows as a storage device you can download pix from on any pc with or without the software.

I'm still looking and haven't found, a remote footswitcher or board that will interface with the screen FX. I wasn't talking about interfacing other outboard pedals or effects.

I would be interested in using a dedicated software recording prog *IF* you could click on-off via a USB pedalboard. But for now I'm still toying with the idea of going with Cubase Studio5, for other-than-guitar related reasons mostly vocals and songwriting.

There was one guy who developed such a thing to interface with Protools at NAMM 06 but I haven't seen anything of it since.. I'd have to dig up my namm literature bags from that year and find his card and email.

Since it's been done, I know it is only a matter of demand before someone like Peavey or Mackie do something en masse.

That's why you should get Guitar Rig or Amplitube, from what you're describing - their footcontrollers are USB, and you can conrol the emulated wah, volume and effects...
