I’d love to hear some fresh clips Johnkenn. I’ve liked the ones you’ve posted before, but I have felt like there was a commonality to the sound. Just rolled through some edge of breakup amps (ok I guess some are way more than EOB)...some have verb some not...just wanted to try and get the sound of the amps. Ignore the playing 1 - Tweed Deluxe Les Paul 2 - Friedman HBE Les Paul 3 - Deluxe Tweed Tele (Tried to match the song) 4 - Deluxe Tweed Tele 5 - Morgan AC-20 6 - Vibro Verb Tele 7 - Vibro Verb Strat 8 - AC30 with Treble Booster https%3A//soundcloud.com/user-761067382/axe-eob%3Fsi%3D4914b00eb1124d539bfeaaf66baf089d%26utm_source%3Dclipboard%26utm_medium%3Dtext%26utm_campaign%3Dsocial_sharing

Hey thanks for posting those Johnkenn. And quit slagging your playing, it's good! The tones do sound pretty great to me. I kinda feel the same way I have about the AxeFX. To me (totally subjective) it has a bit of a house sound, but it's a good house sound and not nearly as same-y as something like a Kemper or lots of other sims. I'm sure it (AxeFX) is super fun to play and it is undoubtedly a very capable recording platform. I'd love to mess with one some time.

Yeah - I’d much rather own all the amps…but that’s not in the cards unless I get a beard and tat sleeve and become the go-to mixer guy lol. It’s definitely fun to play with if for no other reason than it’s just so convenient.

Not that a beard and tat sleeve is all you need to make you a good mixer…

There’s a big variety of amp choices in the Fractal Audio Units. And parameters like bright cap values can be finely adjusted.
It has a large library of IRs, shot by Fractal and other 3rd parties. The IR library plays a big role in avoiding having everything sound the same. Fractal started to redo their IR libraries and present them as Dynacabs, where you can virtually move a mic around to traverse their new IRs.

I'll try to remember to listen again at the studio, but these tones are really good.

John, your playing is fine, so that's literally a non issue, I don't know what you're talking about.
Now that said, I do feel and I quote Ragan "I’ve liked the ones you’ve posted before, but I have felt like there was a commonality to the sound."
I believe that quote also pertains to the new clips you just posted.
I'm not sure you need to purchase all the amps, but still they sound similar, and there is a certain flatness to the sound. Now truth be told, does it matter in the scene of things, I doubt it. Lately nothing seems to matter much, except only to us.

I'm going to have to find a solution within my house to continue to record my amps with my mics and pres. My son loves Harry Potter - maybe he can sleep under the stairs If you have a stairwell, run some xlrs and power and have at it! This might have been addressed already in this thread, but do you have a closet in this room?

This might have been addressed already in this thread, but do you have a closet in this room? I've got my cab and mics in a separate room to my studio space - so for the time being (the next 18 months) I'm good for recording with a cab and mics. In 18 months time I'll have to revisit this issue as my son will need all his room back as his university masters degree will have finished and he'll be living back at home full time. Maybe by then they'll be a digital solution I'll find tolerable.
