Please, no need to apologize, but I do really appreciate your good nature on trying to clarify your point so it wouldn't come out harsh. Thanks for taking the time man. I see a lot of people on the internet getting real nasty about such little things. And also, you have a very valid and useful point there and I'll try to learn from it. Sound and tone experiment can be a world on its own and it really would do good for me if I can dive more into it......What usually happens is that I'm always so anxious to start playin that I try to get a good tone quick so I can start jamming or practicing and not having to worry anymore about it. To be dialing parameters, saving shit, assigning data etc. on sounds that most of the time I hear kind of artificial just drives me crazy! Tone is immensely important to me but I usually like something not overproduced but raw with not much more than a good amp distortion and maybe an overdrive. But as we already said, this is a world for everyone and nothing is written in stone. Saludos!
Ya, I separate out my time between practice, jam time, Band rehearsals and live gigs, and just having fun- which includes experimenting with tones and the gear that makes it possible.
Here is a clip of me playing through the big rig. The 1st half is experimenting with clean tones, and the 2nd half was me experimenting w/ VH1 tone @1:45.
Here's another... I defy you to 'hear' any digital artifacts (W/D/W ftw for eliminating MOST of that unwanted stuff). My normal settings. fyi the reverb is an EMT plate in the H8000FW. The delay is the TC 2290. NO Distortion or Fuzz, or Overdrive. That's the amp's natural gain
