Amp Or Not 3 Metal Edition (Poll)

[LLL]

I'll occasionally throw up a clip and see if you can guess if it's a real amp or software amp.

Remember, every clip will have some kind of production on it (read: studio sauce)... so it's "mix ready".

I'll eventually reveal the answer.

Amp Or Not 3 Metal Edition (Megadeth - Holy Wars):

And it was Positive Grid's BIAS plugin; using their Boogie Mk 2c++ preset!

Just computer speakers on this listen, but sounded real!

Too late to blast it as loud as I want, but it is sounding like a real amp to me.

NegativeEase you gotta vote man!

Good point! I did -I'll follow up in the studio tomorrow and see if I feel the same, I held up in bed with my leg in a brace and ice right now.

​​​​​​​Since it's only miniscus surgery, I can walk a bit tomorrow.

My bad. I forgot due to the surgery you might not be using your preferred equipment. You can have a pass at my expense if you think differently when you can get there. Do not rush the walking!

Haha. thanks man! I think if I built more IRs myself -I'd pick up on this stuff better!

If that's a real amp it's running a bunch of clip diodes. I say that is NOT a real tube amp!

You gotta vote to win the big prize!

I think the left channel is an amp and the right is a modeler, or vice versa. I'm inclined to say left was amp as it might be easier to get feedback, unless he used a modeler and cranked his monitors to get the feedback. I don't think both left and right channels are the same tech.

No mixing technologies in these clips. They're either real amp or software. If I did mixing, there would have to be a vote option for it.

It's 4th of July weekend, so I'll stretch this one out some.

And remember, don't lose any fingers in freak fireworks accidents!

 

[JamesPaul]

Even when Bros whine, "I need more time."

Well, ultimately that just gives you time for #4. I am confident this effort consumes your time, and thankful that you share/give us the opportunity to play along.

The answer is revealed...

More coming, just have to slap em up

 

[devastone]

If it is a real amp, I assume you will be running through your Two Note load and IRs?

 

[JamesPaul]

Another miss for me. I am 1 for 3.

Real amp could be mic'd up or using a load with speaker iRs (not necessarily the Two Notes)

 

[beaubrummels]

So what was the reason left and right sounded so different?

Not sure. Not even sure they sound all that different.

I did that clip years ago, and as usual for these quickies, I manually double things. Usually with the same amp; rarely not.
