stompboxjon « Took my bass to a new level »
Published on 02/11/13 at 23:08The Ampeg SVX Plug In comes with 4 modules; tuner, amp, cabinet/mic, and stomp. There are also 6 mic models, 24 bass amp combinations and 8 analog modeled stomps. This is one of the best plug ins that I have ever worked with for my bass. They quality of the amps/models are amazing. This is a must have for anyone who is a producer and engineer for bass tracks.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
Installing these plug ins where pretty quick and easy the only issue is that I was experiencing some crashing with some of the amps and then Ampeg would not give much support on the issue because they said “They no longer make these plug in”. So be very wary of that, this had me very upset because I feel like they should have at least helped me trouble shoot. I was not sure if the person on the phone really knew what they were talking about or not. I eventually had to uninstall and reinstall everything to get it back to normal.
OVERALL OPINION
My favorite cabinets are the SVT-410H and the BA-500, these are the two that I use the most and I love the sound they create. These cabinets give me the best bass out of most any of the plug ins that I own or have even used.
IK Media also makes another plug in called “Metal Studio” which is also a great plug in, though it doesn’t feel like it has as many options as the SVX plug in does. The price of the Ampeg SVX was very reasonable when it first came out and that was the reason that I purchased it. I ended up falling in love with the sound it gave to my bass tracks, it really helped them stand out in the mix and sound full and rich as opposed to thin and dry. It really took me to another level!
