Your OnlyFans profile says you like walking barefoot on a sandy beach, karaoke singing Carpenters deep cuts, and Riverdancing.

The things we do for love!

I was specifically listening for that as this is the first high-gain clip not obscured by any sort of backing track. I heard nothing on any sustained notes that sounded the least bit off.

Yeah that clip was just all goodness to me. Makes me want to play it. Real. Bad.

Ive always viewed it as a non musical distortion characteristic that seemed to hang over the core amp tone.

You could hear it in the past when notes rang out and faded or in between palm mutes - both more noticeable when mid-to-high gain tones were used.

Here is the existing Helix Soldano alongside several other modelers -



You tell me which one sounds most like the real amp. Some real squirrels from the actual amp for you as well Tim.

But yeah, this clip has limited dynamics - so there is that. But the existing HX SLO model is no pushover.

Helix won to my ears

Actually, yes. Massively IMO.

Actually, yes. Massively IMO.

Wasn't lying when i said it's one of the best SLO 100 models out there. NDSP's plugin comes close too.

 

[KingsXJJ]

Well now I’m getting really interested. This sounds great.

Yeah I do like the NDSP SLO, more than the Fractal Solo models tbh.

NDSP plugins are excellent despite their shitty ass business practices. The Mesa plugin is my go to whenever I feel like using a plugin instead of my amp

BAMBA?

Big ass Mesa Boogie amplifier?

Yes, the NDSP plugin is good. They did a great job - that one is circuit modeled.

Their Mesa plugin is TOP NOTCH imo too. Despite their business practices etc, whatever, I have a blast with that plugin

 

[KingsXJJ]

Does Mesa even work well with captures given their stubborn tweakiness?
