Re: What's on your work bench?

Replaced my Artist Apricus6 stock humbuckers to Artec Filtertrons. The stock humbuckers were okay but a bit boring. These cheap Filtertrons sound better to me - more chime, less mud, better looking too. I was worried that they wouldn't fit my mounting rings but they did. It was my first time swappin...

Re: Gear That Everybody Seems To Love But You Don't

Vintage gear. Feels more like playing a precious, temperamental investment more than a musical instrument.

Re: Guitar related plugins

I spent some time today trying the Neural Amp Modeler. It's very CPU intensive - almost as twice as demanding as some of my NeuralDSP plugins (in Oversampling - High mode). You do get some nice tones but my NeuralDSP and Audio Assault plugins do that already for me.

Re: Guitar related plugins

RIP Kemper? :mental: Neural Amp Modeler <Shitty YouTube channel> That looks amazing as it is free and there is a sizeable community uploading guitar amp profiles for free . Not so good for somebody that likes to tweak their settings a lot but perfect for somebody that wants to load in a preset and ...

Meh. Archetype: Petrucci is pretty much this but with more features. It's cheaper but I wish they did something a lot different than what they have already.

Re: What are you gassing for?

The Elektron Model (Samples, Cycles) line are a simplified version of their main line (Digitakt, Digitone). I find both lines to be fairly intuitive. For Cycles and Digitone, Elektron purposefully set limitations in their FM synth engines so you can find musical sweetspots quicker and easier. Also E...

Re: The Cheap Guitars Thread

I own an Apricus 6 from Artist Guitars. An HH Tele with an ergonomic body. Plays great. Pickups are fine, medium output and maybe a bit bland? I've set it up with 12-52 strings in C# Standard. It's my go to guitar for everything high gain. I quite like their free trial policy. If you don't like the ...

Re: Forums have been slow, how about a 'In the mail' thread?

New synth day. I wasn't planning to get it but somebody listed this in mint condition at a really good price (that I couldn't refuse). This is an Elektron Digitone, which is a groovebox focused on FM synthesis. FM synthesizers have a reputation of being hard to program (but very versatile in creatin...
