Winfried Knobloch "Röhrentechnik ganz modern" Pflaum Verlag München ISBN 3-7905-0660-5. IIRC around 20 years ago a former friend released some notes about this topic in the VDT-Magazin, IIRC he at least has given a talk at a Tonmeistertagung about it. Anyway, I experienced that recording an e. guitar from an elCheapo transistor amp with an elCheapo microphone at low volumes (when living in a rental apartment) always sounds better, than tube amp and speaker emulations, just the Hughes & Kettner tube preamp was amazing, when connecting the guitar directly to the mixer. Guitarix and all proprietary simulations sometimes can be used, but usually even a Boss CS-3 or Boss OD-2, a parametric EQ provided by the mixer and e.g. a SPX90II early reflection already beats Zoom, Guitarix and friends. YMMV! Why are Marshall stacks not replaced by Zoom, Guitarix and friends directly connected to the PA? _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
