As far as lower watt stuff roughly in the HiWatt camp, there is Reeves, which I have not tried and the Trinity amps one which I have. I thought it sounded great, but I wasn’t playing it side by side a vintage HiWatt stack.
Cheers, Geoff

When do they announce the complete list of updates. Just had a look and couldn’t find anything.
Cheers, Geoff

Wow. I had no idea this was such a thing. What makes it particularly egregious is many of these artistes have largely prereen/tween/teen fanbases that are subject to extreme social pressure to beling to the in crowd, stay current with the latest trends etc. To vacuum their pockets of all their cash with the multiple similar released strategy is just extremely distasteful to me. Did I mention I hate it? Cheers, Geoff

Have they released the full list of what’s in this update. Most of what was announced really doesn’t interest me much I have to say.
Cheers, Geoff

The cheap Klark Teknik (Behringer) works fine. 7K input Z. There's a Polsen and Triton that are 22K input Z. I bought that one too but I thought it imparted a slightly undesirable sound. But I cant discount that that might be psychological with just the dirty feeling of buying a Klark Teknik (BEhringer) product. Yeah. There is that. Cheers, Geoff

In other words kids are buying multiple copies of the same record. "Dammit... why didn't I think of that?" - Every Other Pop Star Alive Many of them are indeed doing the same thing. Billie Eilish recently took a swipe at the practice. I am with Billie on this. I hate it. You really need your fans to buy multiple copies of essentially the same record? How do you spell greed?

Well I went and ordered the Cathedral Pipes one. Because other than the KT one it was cheapest. I guess we’ll see when it gets here whether I think it’s an improvement over just using the pres I have. If not I will move it along.
Cheers, Geoff

Pretty sure all the Kush stuff is still in beta. I did have to do some weird stuff involving Rosetta to get my old Boz digital plugs up and running on my new Mac, but once I did that they work fine. That was a few months back though.

Well I played around with a bit. Kinda fun. Could get kinda flabby in the low end. With a Tele! I guess that's why they invented tone controls. The Tonebender is fun too, but I already have a Tonebender pedal, and I'm not much of a pedal guy.
So, I dunno. Will play with it a bit more in the next few days.
Cheers, Geoff

I see Warm now has one too.
I suppose I have survived for a couple decades plus with the low output mics I mentioned without having one of these things. I do find myself having to crank the gain quite a bit on the Daking on quiet sources and am considering selling my Syteks as I just haven’t used them in a long time. Wondered if one of these might help.
Cheers, Geoff

Well, it’s apparently based on a bass amp with a 15” speaker. Not sure this is gonna get me where I want to go.

Another vote for pushing speakers (with volume)to do a “thing”. This flashed me to the "speaker excursion" section of Slipperman's Guide to Distorted Guitars From Hell SUCH a good read if you've never Last time I looked for it I couldnt find it. Shoulda printed it out. Cheers, Geoff

So I would potentially be using this on an SM7 (no b) or an R84.
Is there any reason to choose the Cloud one over the less expensive Triton one or the even less expensive Cathedral Pipes one. Or perhaps others I am not aware of.
Thanks! Geoff

Gone down a pretty big guitar pedal binge here lately. Too many to list. Ah we got time. Do tell when you have time! Cheers, Geoff

Ok, my Jet. The top is a drum wrap. Also the little one watt Marshall head I picked up only has a 16 ohm out and my cabs are 8 ohm. Most things I have read suggest running it into my cab shouldn’t be a problem. Not ideal perhaps, but probably won’t blow it up. Thoughts? Cheers, Geoff

Up here we have neither. Maybe we’re not missing much? I really don’t know. I would think more competition would be a good thing overall. Plus you have Sweetwater, who I think will ship at least some items north of the border. Never tried.
Cheers, Geoff

I was pondering starting a what plugins are on sale thread but if it was to be comprehensive it would be a bajillion pages long and instantly out of date. There are a handful of things I am still somewhat interested in and I try to remember to check their sites every couple of weeks. I don’t really know how else to do it. I will mention Pulsar stuff is on sale for less than they were last month because they advertise here and help support the site.
Cheers, Geoff

Yeah it does. I picked up their 609 plug maybe a month and a half ago on sale for about what the bundle listed above is going for.
Cheers, Geoff

Mystery solved
I can’t believe I remembered posting about these given how long ago it was. Cheers, Geoff

Well looks like a Valco amp sim is imminent. From Kazrog. The teaser showed a little amp with a V on the front. Dunno if it is a specific model or not. Release in about a week. Will update when I know more.
Cheers Geoff
