![]() ![]() ![]() Bias is a lot more fun to play around with building out rigs, since it's more visually intuitive. The stock sounds need more playing with the mics to get right. OwnHammer has a free IR pack of a M/B Slant 4x12 with V30s, and that’s way more impulses than you’ll ever need unless you really want something specific. Amplitube by default includes a room mic and simulates the recording in a space as well as directly on the cabinet. In this video we will compare AmpliTube 5 vs Guitar Rig 6: this comparison is focus just about sound and feel, verifying together which one of the two better. The time wasting part of the process is often to get good cab impulses and actually settle on one. Have confidence in your ears and don’t hesitate to turn the knobs. To me it means a decent OD pedal simulation, a good amp and a good cab, and start with similar settings as well. LePou plugins work fine as well.Īside from that, you should start by trying to set up a simulation the same way you’d set up a real amp. I demoed Vintage Amp Room from Softube for a while and I wasnt impressed. I love the cleans and crunch in Amplitube 3. For clean, crunch, fuzz, etc the IK Multimedia stuff is the best out there IMO. If you’re into high gain amps, for free you can get either of the two Ignite Amps sims: the Anvil and the Emissary. For high gain metal sounds, the Softube Metal Amp Room does one metal sound very good. Its noise gate is set to be very clean as well, so it’s not very musical and I prefer using a plugin like GGate in front of it to tweak the gate a bit more. While the dynamics are lacking I like Peavey’s ReValver for gain tones. They also have two OD pedal sims for free, which are nice. I do really like the bias amps but they are let down by their amp sims. These really have so many options to choose from its untrue (especially Bias FX2 + Bias Amp 2). Bias and GR6 both went for large quantity of amps. I find that AmpliTube 4 has decent models but you can’t load IRs in it, which is beyond annoying as some of the stock cabs sound like cardboard to my ears.Īs far as the paying options go, Mercuriall are my favourite. Most others went in different directions. To me, Helix and BIAS suffer from the same problem: sounds good when you listen to it, feels awful when you actually play through it. Same goes with BIAS from Positive Grid, a company that seems more interested in being bought out than actually make sense out of their product line. If you’re contemplating what virtual rig to use, here are some things to consider. I went through the Helix Native demo more than a few times hoping it would be better, but nope. All the Amp adjustments would be much easier to work on if they were a part of the Amp. I never have liked anything from Line6, especially the distorted/crunch tones. The Cabinets are over in Bias Amp 2 and can alter the sound Drastically. ![]()
