OPINIONS? Fuzz pedal and tube amp REAMP'ed with 2notes Captor X ...cab impulses

[everdrone]

I would LOVE LOVE to just mic up my amp&cab for my demos

...but it costs too much...I make demos in my quiet apartment...

I use cabinet impulses and amp simulators (amp analog pedals as wells amp software)

I would love to get better tones and fuzz pedal tones. 

Should I get the TWO NOTES CAPTOR X???  any opinions are appreciated thanks

here is a demo of it with fuzz pedals and a tube amp, sounds good imho

That load/reamp box looks killer! 
In my opinion, when an amp is loud enough to feedback is where you get the real magic as the amp and guitar are interacting with each other both electrically and acousticly. 
I'm lucky that I can turn up my amp for recording but if I'm working late at night I'll use an amp simulator but with a real fuzz or distortion pedal in front.

The whole cabinet/amp sim thing is hotly debated, I definitely fall in the "real amp" camp. However, convenience is king and a lot of people don't have a choice.

thanks ya there is no way to get the feedback magic of the real amp

that would sound great for sludge/doom

I think I will buy it, thanks   ...I dig that you use an amp sim with real fuzz pedal, I do that too...many new amp sim improvements since I was doing it awhile back:

Sounding good!  What did you use for the guitar sounds?

thanks friend

I plugged my BLACK ARTS PHARAOH pedal into my TECH 21 OXFORD modeler pedal and used RECABINET impulses

Sabbath type clip - DOOM METAL - war pigs inspired, CaptorX, Thunderverb 50, rick bass, Gibson LP

bro this is heavy as fuck

[everdrone]

Awesome!  DOOM ON \M/

cleans are low volume on this amp, I never could get the cleans to work in my prior doom band but maybe nowdays may be possible with the cheaper switcher pedals to trigger the attenuator and amp channel at the same time. 

...for this clip im using the rat and sf300 and a pog to add filth.

got a digitech freqout to produce teh feedback when using my Captor X,  sounds similar to real feedback at MONSTER volumes

Sounds pretty close can you get it to do immediate like in a break?

[everdrone]

cool thanks my guitar already can feedback alot uncontrollably if I crank all the gain all the volume and the pharaoh fuzz up really high...but ya the pedal has that setting too for instantaneous feedback but I think it would get close no cigar for its emulation of that, would sound musical harmonic and not huge amounts of noise

[everdrone]

this dude explains it pretty good as far as drone doom type stuff goes for this pedal, cant get uncontrollable feedback like in a break really: https://youtu.be/IlOU96m_QHM

So I've done some demo quality recording using my mesa V Twin Preamp (clean side is a tube preamp) into a Mooer Radar cab sim pedal. It sounds pretty fucking great and takes pedals quite well. I don't like it as much as a "real" amp setup. My most common current recording setup is kinda fucked up, in that I record live mic'd up using my Acoustic 230 and a 412, but I also take an uneffected DI signal. Then reamp into a small combo (been using my 15 watt crate practice amp from the late 90s) cranked to 11, the DI captures all the feedback (on the guitar side at least) and the reamp allows me to control all my effects, especially time based stuff, more easily than by stomping. I think it has to do with how clean I like my changes to be and how little I like editing. I find it easier to get it right without an edit and it sounds more authentic, because it's a guitar signal fed into an amp with switched pedals.... Albeit a bit different than normal.
