Sounds really good !! I am currently playing with another machine learning code from GuitarML (also open source). I am actually doing some neural model from a component based circuit simulation (SPICE) instead of doing an amp capture. So it is like going from schematics to neural net plugin, and it only takes about 1h to do the whole process. Quite amazing. GuitarML Proteus plugin also allows capturing the effect of a single knob (gain or tone for example) by doing 5 captures with increasing settings. Pretty cool stuff and it sounds really good.
I'm so grateful for this software, my favorite amp is super unreliable but I love it's tone more than any other amp in the world and my friend across the world captured theirs for me so I could have my favorite tone again 😁 the only thing that could make it better is a hardware unit as you mentioned to play it through a cab. My friend does it with their interface into a power amp into a cab but a dedicated hardware unit would be even better
I think everyone likes accurate recreations, with all the knobs and bells and whistles, of real amps but NAM really does a fantastic job. I don't think you need to sift through a ton of profiles (even though there are a ton of them!) to get a great usable tone that can be quickly taylored to your taste via some eq, pedals, cab loader of choice, etc. One thing that I think might be a cool update would be an eq section that is, as a whole, based on preset eq curves of various amps, not necessarily the captured amp, as it seems to be static frequencies atm....just some wishful thinking! lol Really enjoying it so far.
I've got very mixed feelings about the whole capture/profile thing. I've played around with the Proteus a bit, and just recently this. They can sound really amazing, for sure. And a quick way to get a good tone, providing it was a good capture (I'm not sure of the whole capture process and how dependent it is on the competence of someone dialing in a sound). But at the end of the day, I still prefer modeling...of the WHOLE amp. Something like a Boogie Mark series, with all its push-pull switches, or the MK V with all the toggles for different modes...I want access to all that for making my own sounds as well.
+1 on the Mark V Mesa. Still the most versatile, right-in-your-face access to every sound under the sun. Switching to EL34's was incredible in that amp.
I prefer deep modeling of our machines, and that, on professional audio hardware. That said, there was a time when this would have been a godsend for me, and I hope it opens doors for many. Cheers legends, D
Being open source though, I _imagine_ the potential exists to do an extensive capture of one amp and develop the code necessary to extrapolate the small steps between each setting combination - ultimately building an extremely accurate blend of profiling and modelling. Of course it helps if you amp, like mine, has only a gain and a tone control - meaning the number of combinations is far more limited than on some amps with more complex combinations.
Yes, very interesting. I've been watching videos on it for a couple weeks. A way to load the NAM Captures into a Modeler, like an HX Stomp, where the volume, treble, mids, bass, gain, etc., can be adjusted in a Preset is the way to go. Menu diving and auditioning audio files is a buzz kill.
I've been part of the NAM since early days and I think NAM generally nails the overall sound. Where I think there is something missing is the in-between stuff such as sag and compression of when you first hit a note etc.
Then you are probably using models that has only been profiled with a small amount of epochs like 100 to 200. I make models that has all the sag, compression, frequency response of the original sound by training it with a lot more epochs and more variation of sounds in the training file.
The Kemper was first demo'd to Studios to profile a recorded amp set up, and possibly for the Artist to reproduce live, saving freight their recorded tone. NAM is good for the first part of this and perhaps someone will develop a rasberry standalone box or some ways to IR is into Fractal etc. Exciting future with AI amp profiling for sure
Hi Leon I just installed it yesterday. So to see your video today was awesome. also I was running a line 6 hd500 with a James Tyler variax-F89 sound's great but a few months back my nephew got a Axe Fx 3 so he gave me his Axe Fx 2 with mfc 101 controller big step up so I started to watch you for a little InSite on how to get started with it all and I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the help I've gotten from your videos Johnny
I'm sure the interface will get prettier but for now I'm hearing with my ears and not my eyes :) I've been running it in Ableton Live, so I can load several on separate tracks, select, compare and or blend them, seems pretty good. The only gripe I have is there seems to been a squillion files available already, finding good ones is a bit of a chore. Any suggestions? I hope/assume the interface will eventually have a drop down of favorites and recently used, which will speed up the work flow.
I'm actually very interested in this, mainly as a recording tool. I reamp all my projects so I'm always writing and recording direct for my guitar and bass tracks. I generally like to write with an amp sim similar to the one I plan to use so I give a more authentic preformance but this could allow me to use captures of my actual amps instead.
Got the NAM last night. At least I think I did and it's not github malware. My first experience of playing captures. It's really good! And free (apart from needing a DAW and computer)
The bedroom player has never had so many ways to distract themself from learning songs, at least this one stops more gadgets going into landfill in 10 years time, re hardware, a usbc device that can plug into phones and the software run on phone is the way to go.
be mindlful that you have yo use the accurate loadbox or amp/dibox/cab combo to get the proper impedance curve of the amp. torpedo is no good, suhr is fine, amt 120 and st rock are fine
crikey, at this point whats the point of a real amp other then for live purpose.. maybe ? this is stupendous. it is literally impossible to tell that is a plugin. cheers
Man, your capture of the Mark IV is AMAZING! the best capture that I downloaded so far! Thank you very much and ... send us more if possible! 😅 Great job! Ps: There's an old video of you comparing the sound of a MB Rectifier with 6L6s and EL34s. That EL34 sound is amazing! The best recto sound I've heard! It would be awesome if you could capture that.
There's tons of pedals that have been captured and can be used by putting a 2nd instance of NAM (in your DAW) with the pedal file before your NAM with the amp capture file.
Whoa! That's actually impressive. I own an Orange OMEC Teleport interface pedal, so in theory what you're implying is that I could load into a gig with that, my midi footswitch, an old unibody Macbook Pro and run it into either a Pedal Baby, FRFR, or IEM & front of house?!! Playing with ANY hypothetically authentic sounding amp capture?!! For legit pennies on the dollar compared to a Kemper, Fractal, or Helix?! Oh my good gravy! Muy Hed Jus Asploded! LMAO! 🤓
As cool as stuff like this and Tonex are, I hope we see more actual modeling plugins instead of captures. I want to see companies do what Fractal has done with the FAS models instead of flipping through a pack of different Marshall or 5150 snapshots.
Well, the capturing thing seems to be the new frontier for all those involved with modelers and similar stuff. I've tried just yesterday some tones with my 10 years old Kemper and it's still up to the task. I've got a Tonex in the meanwhile ...why? Technology is evolving day by day and if something comes out doing that very same thing but with a modern technology producing even a slightly better result than the previous tools then we can only be happy. This plugin goes in the very same direction and the limit is now the sky. All that said, a proper tweaking of tones will still be left for a while to those owning a hardware machine like Fractal, Kemper or QC ....with the next step of profiling/modelling just those tweaked tones to be then shared, paid or free, with the community. At the end of the day we all "work" with snapshots of sounds that we have heard on certain songs and that we want to make ours while playing so if one can get something the closest possible to those snapshots that we have in our head why not ? Yes, things are definitely changing for musicians ...for the best I guess🙂
echoing some other comments, i really prefer component modelling to tune in the sounds i'm after, it feels more rewarding as well, to make a comparison to synth plugins, it's like having a 'preset player' which you have to scroll through/buy profiles/presets instead of having all the settings at your disposal to craft something of your own, nothing wrong with either approach, i just prefer the latter always great to see new developments in any case
The big thing that interests me in regards to IK's hardware approach to emulation ala the AXE I/O USB interface line? Basically can be pretty much summed up in two words: "input impedance" ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I really dig amp sims, but I also really dig the physically tactile "feeling" of pushing an amp's input with a chain of traditional "front of amp" analog pedals, and within my attempts I've come to realize that not all digital interface "Hi-Z" inputs are created equal. Typically I've noticed that Jfet based interface preamps, or when using say an 18 volt fet based preamp or boost pedal? That seems to help mitigate some of the overall input clipping headroom issues with some recording interfaces, but it's hit and miss at best depending on the unit itself. I'm somewhat intrigued by the "Z-tone" impedance adjustment and Jfet input voicing feature on the IK AXE I/O units, and while I haven't yet personally demoed one yet? I think IK is technically trying to address a core issue that's led to my prior personal biases towards embracing digital amp software. One mostly spawned from many attempts at making gain related analog dirt pedals and digital amp sims convincingly play well together? Ya dig? I Dunno. Maybe it's just me? Much like Fuzz pedals can sometimes be the overall end all equalizer when judging a "good" amp? Regardless if it's tube or solid state? I sometimes feel like perhaps the home digital recording interface market has only just recently begun catching up to the true overall potentials of amp software within the terms of comparable input impedance reactivity. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I really hope that whole nerdy gear rant made sense to someone! LMAO! Anyway... Great content as always Leon! G'day and Cheers mate! ✌🤟🖖
Hey! Long time watcher here. Welcome to the community! 🤘 As a fellow Mesa MKIV and Quad preamp owner I have done a few captures on my channel, it would be cool to compare with yours. Great video 👍
It being used live is the primary thing I'd like to see working. I guess it could be done with an interface, laptop, and something like Gig Performer. Anyways, I've been using it a few weeks now and have more captures than I know what to do with. I just run it in Studio One with some other plugins and get to have all kinds of funs.
what the world needs right now is an arm-based plugin loader pedal for people to use these types of stuff live. and not just an amp-type plugin, it can be anything the user want it to load. but nobody will ever make it happen...
I've seen a few videos with this - I think, it looks and sounds super promising. However, I no longer own an amp, and there is little point in capturing my AxeFX - Except maybe, if I make a recording, and I want to preserve the sound for years to come.
I've been experimenting with NAM since you told me about it Leon and although it needs to be able to work far more efficiently with less of a load on the CPU, the sound quality I am hearing surpasses what I'm used to from amp modeling at any level. I tested ToneX as well and found NAM to be superior in terms of quality. I'm pushing for stereo operation (as usual) and I also would love a stereo hardware pedal to host NAM. I agree with you that the UI needs to be designed so you can more easily locate the profile you need without endless scrolling / auditioning. Perhaps some powerful AI filtering system that uses prompts to find the perfect profile. There are some obvious superior profile makers out there and that can help to find what you're looking for much faster. The UI part of it is a creative opportunity and creative problem for someone to come up with a solution for.
Yeah the next layer for AI assisted modeling is the organization level stuff. A modeler that learns your tonal preferences the more you use it anyone?!
@@LeonTodd Yes! I can't wait to be served up my favorite amp tones with the EQ set just right, haha! As guitar players, we've never been so spoiled and demanding. 😅
SOUNDS GREAT! Really good! Open source is so interesting.. There is a lot of open source programmers.. people are good! Great stuff.. Thank you sir.. You always have great and interesting stuff! Very cool.. That would sound great in a 7 string too if you ask me! I saw an open source modeler at the German place that sells the Harley Benton guitars.. It was open source too.. You had to buy the hardware, but it would load open source files and even synths and all kinds of midi stuff, etc.. I thought it was a good idea at least, but I'm not sure it will ever take off. They, the hardware company I'm speaking of that I can't remember the name of allowed all of their code to be released so anyone could write for it.. I've not seen it lately, so it might already be gone. It was about the size of the Line 6 small modeler.. I can't wait to hear the ToneX video.. What a great amp modeler and the price is great! Thanks brother!
Hi everyone! I need some help if you can! I Installed Neural Amp Modeler in my laptop (Windows) already. As I'm a tube amp guy, I want to learn how to setup those software/files?? What is next? Where and how can I get amps/pedals/cabs?? I starts read and try to understand this new tools. Any advice will be super helpful Thank you.
i was never a fan of "capture" methods for the simple reason that they don't "behave" like the real thing as for example a mark series amp would behave when you change the pre-gain eq. that's only done with component based modeling. also capture is a dead end as far as all the other stuff a rig has like effects pedals etc the only thing i ever used in that method is tonematching guitars with FAS like an acoustic guitar to then use the IR over an electric di signal for "emulating" the real acoustic. i think the whole deal is over hyped and i dont see many artists using this stuff and kemper users keep diminishing. i will agree though that this thing seems very capable and the closest i've heard to the target. also being free is a great thing. i for one wouldnt pay much for that sort of method
It might be useful for some to have a lightweight piece of software composited with some of our favorite pieces of stage hardware. Wonder how this will sound and respond in a live performance environment where nuance is the name of the game for some. Nice video.
i tried it and it sounds goof for chord play but in solo notes it doesnt sound so good so i still prefer neural dsp pluggin instead of tone capture technology i tried some good IR's aswell and some reverb rffects but no luck with solo notes
It doesn't get better then NAM when it comes to solo guitars. There is no way in the world neural dsp is better for soloing than NAM. You're not doing something right, that's for sure.
GuitarML has a similar open source software to NAM, and he has also done a video on building it into a home made physical pedal using Raspberry Pi: ruclips.net/video/dFMsWW0uC7w/видео.html
I’m disappointed, where’s your O face and clickbait title? 😂 That’s cool you had a good experience. Mine was not so great, just super buggy and after 5 minutes of constantly being asked for microphone permission and also having the latency keep resetting to an unplayable 512 samples, I realized I didn’t have the time or patience to deal with something open source. I think it’s a very cool project and commend Steve, but I’d just rather pay for something that works and doesn’t need to bypass my computers security features since it’s not validated. Call me crazy, but convenience is something I’m willing to pay for 🤷♂️🥳
If you are searching for the O-Face and the clickbait title, MY VIDEO HAS YOU COVERED! 😛 But in all seriousness, we are all guilty of the Ghost-BJ at times. And yes, NAM is a super tinker-y plugin, the learning curve is hard to overcome - but once you're there, there's no turning back. I am so fed up with ToneX, since there is no visual representation on how my model training is going. Frustrating to waste an hour just to find out it sounds muffled and 0% like the actual ReAmping-Chain. NAM offers this - after spending time to get to know it. That, to me, is real convenience. But this is no knock on you - different strokes for different folks, all good.

@Arsafes so I guess it's your captures featured on the 'default' nam pack. Thought so. Will def check em out
Highly recommend the Wizard boosted with the Mudkiller pedal capture for this. Savage tone.
hi. what kind of impulse did you use?
I think everyone likes accurate recreations, with all the knobs and bells and whistles, of real amps but NAM really does a fantastic job. I don't think you need to sift through a ton of profiles (even though there are a ton of them!) to get a great usable tone that can be quickly taylored to your taste via some eq, pedals, cab loader of choice, etc. One thing that I think might be a cool update would be an eq section that is, as a whole, based on preset eq curves of various amps, not necessarily the captured amp, as it seems to be static frequencies atm....just some wishful thinking! lol Really enjoying it so far.
I've got very mixed feelings about the whole capture/profile thing. I've played around with the Proteus a bit, and just recently this. They can sound really amazing, for sure.

+1 on the Mark V Mesa. Still the most versatile, right-in-your-face access to every sound under the sun. Switching to EL34's was incredible in that amp.
I prefer deep modeling of our machines, and that, on professional audio hardware. That said, there was a time when this would have been a godsend for me, and I hope it opens doors for many. Cheers legends, D

That would sound great in a 7 string too if you ask me!
I saw an open source modeler at the German place that sells the Harley Benton guitars.. It was open source too.. You had to buy the hardware, but it would load open source files and even synths and all kinds of midi stuff, etc.. I thought it was a good idea at least, but I'm not sure it will ever take off. They, the hardware company I'm speaking of that I can't remember the name of allowed all of their code to be released so anyone could write for it.. I've not seen it lately, so it might already be gone. It was about the size of the Line 6 small modeler..
I can't wait to hear the ToneX video.. What a great amp modeler and the price is great!
Thanks brother!
Hi everyone!
I need some help if you can!
I Installed Neural Amp Modeler in my laptop (Windows) already.
As I'm a tube amp guy, I want to learn how to setup those software/files??
What is next?
Where and how can I get amps/pedals/cabs?? I starts read and try to understand this new tools. Any advice will be super helpful Thank you.
i was never a fan of "capture" methods for the simple reason that they don't "behave" like the real thing as for example a mark series amp would behave when you change the pre-gain eq. that's only done with component based modeling. also capture is a dead end as far as all the other stuff a rig has like effects pedals etc the only thing i ever used in that method is tonematching guitars with FAS like an acoustic guitar to then use the IR over an electric di signal for "emulating" the real acoustic. i think the whole deal is over hyped and i dont see many artists using this stuff and kemper users keep diminishing.
i will agree though that this thing seems very capable and the closest i've heard to the target. also being free is a great thing. i for one wouldnt pay much for that sort of method
It might be useful for some to have a lightweight piece of software composited with some of our favorite pieces of stage hardware. Wonder how this will sound and respond in a live performance environment where nuance is the name of the game for some. Nice video.
That will be no problem. Well trained models have all the characteristics intact.
I cant find it inside my DAW (Garageband), just as a standalone. Any advice somebody?
Reboot your mac, sometimes it happens with plugins from “non official mac devs”
Awesome video dude =)
Thanks 😁
I think there should have also been a gain control?
Thank You!
A group of got together to create an easy place to find NAM models. It'll be called Tone Hunt and will release in a few days Hopefully.
Amazing content, my friend. Can you plz share the settings you used on your mark iv to make this capture? Thank u so much
Mid gain mode, bass 0, mid 1, treble 9, gain 5 , overdrive 10, fat off, bright on, GEQ in a rough V shape.
@@LeonTodd thank u so much. how about your IR? it's a mesa 4x12 to match the mark iv head?
Love NAM. Could do without the EQ section tho.
Can I ask what tuning you’re using on that guitar?
Cool you dig it Leon!
Very impressive hey
damn i cant find any modlers or ir for this. maybe there just showing on this group you mentioned.. lets see if im accepted to find out more
Try this - tonehunt.org/about
@@LeonTodd cheers!
Hello, can you capture an amp sim with this?
yes
where do you get the presets for this I have it installed and ....?
facebook page files
so when are you capturing the nice amps behind you? haha
Soon!
i tried it and it sounds goof for chord play but in solo notes it doesnt sound so good so i still prefer neural dsp pluggin instead of tone capture technology
i tried some good IR's aswell and some reverb rffects but no luck with solo notes
It doesn't get better then NAM when it comes to solo guitars. There is no way in the world neural dsp is better for soloing than NAM. You're not doing something right, that's for sure.
Please make Mark V and VII 🙏🙏
Kemper stocks just took a serious nose drive. 😂
GuitarML has a similar open source software to NAM, and he has also done a video on building it into a home made physical pedal using Raspberry Pi: ruclips.net/video/dFMsWW0uC7w/видео.html
Also on Raspberry Pi physical pedal for NAM: ruclips.net/video/2I_bxxzQs2s/видео.html
I’m disappointed, where’s your O face and clickbait title? 😂 That’s cool you had a good experience. Mine was not so great, just super buggy and after 5 minutes of constantly being asked for microphone permission and also having the latency keep resetting to an unplayable 512 samples, I realized I didn’t have the time or patience to deal with something open source. I think it’s a very cool project and commend Steve, but I’d just rather pay for something that works and doesn’t need to bypass my computers security features since it’s not validated. Call me crazy, but convenience is something I’m willing to pay for 🤷♂️🥳
To quote home Homer's Brain: Money can be exchanged for goods and services.
If you are searching for the O-Face and the clickbait title, MY VIDEO HAS YOU COVERED! 😛 But in all seriousness, we are all guilty of the Ghost-BJ at times.
And yes, NAM is a super tinker-y plugin, the learning curve is hard to overcome - but once you're there, there's no turning back.
I am so fed up with ToneX, since there is no visual representation on how my model training is going. Frustrating to waste an hour just to find out it sounds muffled and 0% like the actual ReAmping-Chain. NAM offers this - after spending time to get to know it. That, to me, is real convenience.
But this is no knock on you - different strokes for different folks, all good.
I don't see a reason to even try this (even though I tried). Line 6 helix does everything better. Period :D
Lol. You wish.
