HEAD TO HEAD - The Amp Simulator Shootout Project

Nice videos Benoni! Thanks for posting them. I think I can hear some aliasing. That might indicate they were uploaded to YouTube at 48kHz instead of 44.1kHz.

I'll have to check the output of the video program, dont remember what I left it set at. I do so many video projects, i usually just set it and forget it.

It depends on if I can find some quality samples
Um i can try, but no guarantee on when or if I will get it done. Any model in particular? The Nitro?

the Nitro and Quickrod would be cool. i'm guessing the quickrod is more or less a hot rodded jcm800, should be pretty easy i think. not sure what the Nitro is like. beefier for sure. they had some decent clips at their website.

how are you going about making these presets? i would like to help make presets in the future.

Great work...and a lot of work I'm sure to take this on!! Awesome!

"...unequivocal, incontrovertible, explicit..." uhhhh...what? Guess I'll have to keep a dictionary window open when I watch these

An Ibanez RG7620, a Schecter Hellraiser 7 Diamond Series (soon I'll get a Jeff Loomis Sig) and another guitar that shall remain nameless , but, is becoming my experimental guitar.

And talking around parents is easy, you tell them that you will never need another guitar after you buy *this* guitar, it has all the best features and suits your needs exactly . They don't need to know that you will do the exact same thing the following year .

what year is your 7620?? for some reason i sold mine last year (2002). i sold it for more than what i paid for it new. they have become quite the collectors piece since ibanez revamped their line and have NOTHING of that quality in that price range. now i am kind of wanting a 7 again and regret selling it. it is a great guitar!! my other collector is my 98 ibanez jpm p4 camo (petrucci model), cant sell it though!!!

i taught in a music store for years and got some cool guitars at great prices!!

The RG is a 1999 model, I think?? I got it for only $900 AUD. Quite moderately priced seeing as it was loaded w/ EMG707s. That guitar is the best 7 I have ever played, hands down, and I've tried a LOT of them. Better than the Schecter Hellraiser and Loomis models - though they are very good. The only reason I stopped playing on it is because the alloy for the frets wore down extremely fast and need replacing, a fret dress wouldn't be enuff. I don't know anyone who is able to do the job and it wouldn't be cheap . One thing is for certain it'll never be sold, because, if I ever find someone who can replace those frets it's going back into action immediately .

Those JPM models are something special I really wanted one, especially the P1, but, they were out of my price range. You lucky son of a gun .
