    Re: Joining the impulse response gang (Two Notes C.A.B. M review)

    Interesting to see the take of a guy we've heard some great miked sounds from. Thanks for the review!

    At the end of the day it is true that for the person doing the playing, nothing quite compares to a real mic on a real cab. To the listener after the fact, they probably won't be able to tell the difference at all.

    But the technology is at the point now where you can get pretty damn close in both sound and feel, and that's frightening and enlightening all at once. I'm still struggling to accept that the AX8 I recently bought sounds and feels as good as it does, and almost went for the new Captor X instead.

    @TwilightOdyssey did you check out the Captor X at all before pulling the trigger?

      Yup, one of the raison d’etre for the CAB M is for FoH use.
      Why don't you take your little Cobra Kais and get outta here?!

        Thanks for the kind words!

        True! When I told a friend of mine what I was doing, he didn’t even know guitar amps used tubes!!

        I did, but the two main differences - auto doubling and load - were things I don’t require.
