103- Dialing & Recording a Modeler (Beth)
Manage episode 355875381 series 2724103
There is no denying the ease of use of a modeler when recording. Sure there is an argument of simplicity when you put a mic in front of a speaker, hit record and let it be what it is… but there are downfalls of the analog situation too. Amps are bigger, have less options, more noise artifacts, and of course the elephant in the room… sheer loudness in order to get the tubes cooked and the speakers moving. Pedals have their issues too. Cables fail, powering issues, number of pedals, size of the enclosure, and of course buffering and impedance issues.
But why is a modeler such a good option? Can you record more than one track? What is re-amping? Does phase matter? Is phase really a math equation? How do you use modelers with an interface? Do you even need an interface? Can you fly with it? And… IR’s are they a tone game changer?
Well we will discuss this, and more on this group therapy session with Beth, on the Tweed Couch.
