Let's Play "Guess the Amp"

feylya · 03-09-2005 9:50pm #1

OK folks, here's a 30 second long mp3 of a guitar, drums, bass and synth. What I want you to do is guess what amp this is coming from or at least, post your opinion on the tone.

Johnny Storm · 03-09-2005 9:57pm

My guess: Mega Bogie

0utshined · 03-09-2005 10:07pm

A Microcube on the R-Fier setting?

Edit: or a Carvin

Ravelleman · 03-09-2005 11:27pm

Microcube.

novarock · 04-09-2005 12:38am

i want it to be a microcube.....because I have one.

dimerocks · 04-09-2005 12:52am

marshall mode4 is a very bad guess

feylya · 04-09-2005 1:04am

And another one...

I should probably also add that the challenge could be slightly misleading...

Giblet · 04-09-2005 1:28am

I dunno about the amp, but the distortion sounds like a pedal or an amp modeller.

Custom22 · 04-09-2005 9:34am

Some sort of computer amp software. Sounds terrible though.

EDIT * Whatever it is*

kazaam · 04-09-2005 10:35am

sounds like a metal zone pedal, whatever the amp is i dunno, sumtin that sounds as horrible as an MT-2?

jcoote · 04-09-2005 11:50am

sounds like a metal zone and maybe a different kinda amp..soldano or carvin or somethin

dimerocks · 04-09-2005 9:52pm

fender cyber twin!!!tell us

Quattroste · 04-09-2005 10:02pm

I couldn't even listen to that crap for the full 30 seconds!

Could be anything cos I haven't a clue!

jcoote · 04-09-2005 10:03pm

yeah fey tell us

feylya · 04-09-2005 10:13pm

No...not yet. I want to get a couple of other suggestions. Some of you have good ears though. And personally, I quite liked the first clip :eek:

Giblet · 04-09-2005 10:15pm

What?! The first clip sounds muck!

jcoote · 04-09-2005 10:15pm

yeah i liked the clip too ...has anyone got it yet

feylya · 04-09-2005 10:29pm

I have an odd taste in tones. Some people call it ****e.

I won't say J. I'll leave it til maybe Wednesday evening til I tell everyone.

jcoote · 04-09-2005 10:31pm

wednesday evening u totally random bastard...i'm right there wit u fey i like kinda tin can tones sometimes aswell

feylya · 04-09-2005 10:34pm

Mmm, random. Gotta love St Anger...

jcoote · 04-09-2005 10:35pm

feylya · 04-09-2005 10:36pm

jcoote · 04-09-2005 10:37pm

feylya · 04-09-2005 10:39pm

Nope. That's not a band

jcoote · 04-09-2005 10:40pm

oh right fair enough i won't ask what the

is for...u know what just listened again that sounds like a keeley ds-1...i'll change my mt-2 guess to a ds-1

novarock · 04-09-2005 10:44pm

feylya · 04-09-2005 10:44pm

jcoote · 04-09-2005 10:53pm

ha ha well spotted

...is it a mix of dist pedal and amp or just an amp

feylya · 04-09-2005 10:55pm

Ah, I can't be telling you that. I will say however, check my second post in this thread. You're all gonna hate me when I tell you the answer.

jcoote · 04-09-2005 10:57pm

misleading eh??? i dunno i'm ****ed now

feylya · 04-09-2005 11:00pm

Keep guessing. I'm actually not looking for a name, especially since it doesn't have one.

jcoote · 04-09-2005 11:01pm

what doesn't have a name the piece of equipment ????

feylya · 04-09-2005 11:02pm

Yes.

novarock · 04-09-2005 11:10pm

Is it computer based?? Im guessing at a VST plug-in.

sei046 · 04-09-2005 11:12pm

just about 2 say that. its prob a vst guitar. U can get them tones wit a decent one. and thats why his second post is so important. THERE IS NO AMP!

jcoote · 04-09-2005 11:13pm

yeah has to be along them lines voxengo software or somethin...are we close oh wise one

feylya · 04-09-2005 11:15pm

jcoote · 04-09-2005 11:15pm

happy days...wednesday night??...well done lads

A bonus point to anyone who tells me what the software is called. It does have a name.

And technially, Custom22 got it first.

jcoote · 04-09-2005 11:18pm

is it voxengo as i said above

Giblet · 04-09-2005 11:18pm

Pfft I knew it wasn't an amp, custom22 just said computer when I said amp modeler (which technically is a computer:D) It hasn't got anything to do with this crowd has it?

feylya · 04-09-2005 11:22pm

Nope, not Voxengo. Never heard of them.

Giblet, "amp modeler" wasn't specific enough. And it isn't amt either.

novarock · 04-09-2005 11:23pm

clone ensemble.

Giblet · 04-09-2005 11:25pm
