  • Francisco does a deep A/B comparison between the Fortin Nameless amplifier and the Fortin Nameless plugin. Fortin Nameless 14 day trial: neuraldsp.com/...
    The setup for this is below, allowing for simultaneous recording of an A track & B track using both the Fortin Nameless plugin & amplifier.
    Guitar - UA Apollo Twin (Input 1) - Ableton Live - Fortin Nameless Plugin
    UA Apollo Twin (Output 3) - Fortin Nameless amplifier - Reactive Loadbox - UA Apollo Twin (Input 2)

    Videos like this that explains how the amp reacts to certain actions on it is %100 appreciated. As an example, i didn't knew the response of the mid bass and treble knob would vary depending on where the other tone stack knobs are. Please make more videos like this that explains the amp more in-depth if any more information like this exists.

    The live amp flubs a bit more but the most important obstacle to get the convincing live tone is the real cab in my opinion. Sadly nobody tries to do something in that regard. The IR tech is almost 20 years old now and it sounds way too static

    People need to realise that trying to sound the same as a real amp doesn't have any purpose. they just have to find a tone that fits your song and use it whether it is a real amp or a plug-in. But we can't also deny but Neurall DSP stuff sounds almost identical to the rear amp and this guy knows what he's doing. Almost all the comparisons that compared real amps to plug-ins they compare with the built-in cab simulator of the plugins to a real miced amp of a different cab in a different room. This guy knows how to make a great comparison and deserves the praice.

    • @louper3002
      @louper3002 5 дней назад

    Listening on monitor speakers - real gear has more bottom end but it depends on the mic type, position, and IMO can be emulated as well if you have high quality IRs.
