NDSP Quad Cortex

Compared the Plini amps to Friedman and they are definitely different. Plini much more mid forward and lower gain.

Dude if you get bored I’d be curious how the Plini X Chorus sounds next to the native choruses. I really dig it on the plug, but wonder how close it is to something else already there. (Or if it’s a re-skin etc)

Funny that they keep saying TINA is modeling amplifiers when TINA is incapable of writing code as far as I can tell.

I guess it's "unparalleled", as they love to say, in measuring them with precision. But once those measurements happen, amp model development is still constrained by the developer bandwidth.

Well they’re using that to consistently and quickly use ML to generate captures, that then get rolled into a single model, right? They’re not doing component modeling.

does the BE model have the structure and voicing switches? should get very close, maybe adjusting MV and accounting for tapers

I'm home for a few days but Troy has my QC so I'll give all this a spin when i'm back again in the middle of August.

What free plugin should I get?

I have the Plini, Petrucci and Rabea plugins along with Fortin and maybe a couple others..

Plini would be my suggestion at this point.

I do not own the Gorgira

The Plini has some really good clean and lead tones. I feel like the Gojira is just a prototypical 5153 high gainer. (Not bad, but not terribly unique either)

woah that's heavy for Pete , that sounds great . man those riffs are tight

It sounds good, different from what I think of the others especially in spatial mode. More like a dimension chorus maybe? Didn’t Do a direct comparison though.

It does but still sounds different, maybe like BE boosted by a Klon but lower gain.

Yeah it seems pretty unique to me on the plug. Has its own character. I wonder what they based it on.

Now this is the future of modellers that I like to see, paywalls. Everyone should be taking notes and spinning their wheels on how to charge more for content!

(btw I'm joking I dont actually mind NDSP's implementation of plugins. If they blended it in with the regular amp models I'd be flaming them but the fact its off to the side is the best way to do it.)

If they were smart, they would let you unlock each block à la cart. Micro transactions is where the money is.

Maybe if you watch enough candy crush ads you can also unlock it

Has anyone loaded all Plini amps and effects into a patch in their correct order? Does it all fit including the three amps in series or parallel?

IK Multimedia has been doing this for years .... especially with Amplitube and Tonex ...... Two Notes Genome started doing this several months ago and Kemper said at its release that this is going to be done with the Kemper Player .... and almost a decade ago, L6 tried it briefly with the HD Packs.

Nowadays ...... luckily ..... I cant see Fractal or L6 ever going down this route.

Awesome, thanks! I only own Plini but the QC is getting tempting now!

 

[the swede]

So when they say “part component, part profiling”. What does that really mean? Anyone know?
For example, L6 is pretty transparent about the modeling process, how they do component modeling and what it means.

The presets from Plini are already in there. All I had to do was go Plugin > Plini > Default preset and the signal chain is already set up for you, only the presets only load in one amp at a time, whichever amp that preset uses, so I only had to add the other two manually beside it.

Il say this If i happen to watch something on YouTube or browse for something there is always a NDSP add or Video about COR 3.0, thats a lot of paid marketing OTH i never see anything of the kind from FAS or Line6 when they have updates

Just thought I'd compare again:

BE is in the "mid gain" structure position, C45 off, vintage voicing. Just sort of eyeballed settings and that alone was pretty damn close.
