NAM: Neural Amp Modeler

[Sascha Franck]

but you have a defined end-point on real potentiometers, so with experience, you can dial them in blindly.

Ahem... while I do get the point (and I even expected it to be raised), how often exactly did you actually move any amp's tone stack knobs to their end points? I can safely say how often I'm doing so (and all the amp controls on my pedal board are WYSIWYG, treated 100% as in the analog world), namely: never. This is like having an answer for a non-existing problem.

The pedal which I had in mind having the same distance between footswitches is the Ampero HoTone Stage II.

Even given your picture (the toppers are blurrying things a bit, too), there's somewhat noticeably more space between the Ampero switches (and fwiw, I actually find the Ampero switches to be almost too close to each other already - the distance on, say, the GT-1000 is as small as I wanted to deal with). And yes, in this case there's no "what's a centimeter among friends?" thing, even just a centimeter can actually make or break it).

"even just a centimeter can actually make or break it"

That's what she said

(I've heard it on good authority )

Finding the right size shoes is certainly always a challenge!

Huh.. that's pretty interesting, but zero info (as expected) about what the tech actually is.
My guess is that it's probably RTNeural based.

No clue unless Dave comes out with more info; curious what folks make of this (how it sounds / feels).

I think this scaling is misleading - if the ampero II is actually 2.2". The DH pedal is about 2.1", which is effectively the same and appears to be the same as the morningstar spacing. I no longer have a QC but I think it's definitely a little wider spacing.

and appears to be the same as the morningstar spacing.

There's a good reason I never bought a Morningstar, even if they could serve quite some purposes. Can you guess which reason?

So @lol, you entered this forum to leave tons of reactions to my postings without even posting a single word yourself? Gotta say that's making you look like a really smart dude. I'm sure we can all learn something from you.

I promise to do *everything* to speed up that process! Deal?

Awesome! It's great to see another satisfied owner of a NAM Player.
What's your setup like? Have you updated to latest firmware yet?

Can the Dimehead be used as an audio interface as well? If yes whats the spec (48k / 24bit etc)? I can't see a manual for it is there one out there?

No, simply use it with your existing audio interface.
With such low latency it's fantastic if you've got your interface set for direct monitoring.

I'm doing a capture pedal comparison so just seeing if it had that feature. Is there a manual for this? Kinda hard to see all the effects it has. I can't see much on the site besides a FAQ. I watched their video but the new firmware seems to have brought in new stuff, hard to stay ontop of it as an outsider to owning one.

Latest firmware shows quite a good bit of detail.
I'm fairly sure the website is getting updated v.soon, but it hasn't been pushed yet.

The "FAQ" is as close as it gets , but I agree they should definitely get some documentation out. Fortunately it's a pretty simple device to use

 

[Dom Mcsweeney]

The effects it has are:

- tremelo,
- delay (with added modulation - so, think vibey/chorus/flange etc)
- reverb (60 second IR Loader - has some included (really nice) and... *basically load up anything you like, it's a massive world of fun .. you can load IRs of literally whatever your imagination can think of)

*for example you could use one of many free reverbs IRs (there are tons), or pay for a pack of reverbs IRs, or you could make an IR out of any of your favourite reverb plugins, or hardware units, or just record an impulse through a long plastic tube... or clap your hand or pop a balloon in an echoey room, or you could make an IR of any reverb or delay effect pedal or from some other modeler... and it can then be imported as a .wav file and ... upto 60 seconds of decay time.

Hi @ArteraDSP, is it true you are woking on a possible hardware pedal version?
