dadainparis « very good for an amp simulator »
Published on 04/13/12 at 18:45The isntallation is no particular problem. I had the latest version on the site of IK. Setup is simple. The software recognizes my controller well pm (nanokontrol2), unlike other (Revalver MKIII.V example). At first I had a bad sound with cuts ... but now that's an outdated sound card (I tascam us144mkII 5 years) and not suited to this type of traitement.J I changed the map .. Now it's going much better 
The manual is clear.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
My config:
quad core i7 3.4
14GO ram
SSDs
MOTU Ultralite mk3
Performance can not be quantified because I have a big config (SSD / RAM / Proc). The software uses to break everything 5% cpu with the largest sample. Attempts should be on an average machine range to see the actual performance.
The software had trouble with my tascam. With the motu is much better.
The configuration is stable.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 10 days. I have an eleven rack, and mkIII.V ReValver AmpliTube now. I was looking for a more flexible solution (with controllable by midi learn function) and the portable rack for stage and recording.
Eleven is a great product, but at ReValver dynamic range and are now both are equally warm and clean sound (zmplitude ReValver does better than the view of the heat).
For optimal sound on the other hand must have a card with analogue / digital performance and HI-Z input with a good preamp.
An advantage of amplitude versus eleven or ReValver is the positioning of microphones and speaker microphones atmosphere.
The convolution is good, but this is only an image of a fixed system (power amp + cabinet + if micro + micro environment are frozen during the recording of the noise footprint). So all that is IR is good but it should really have a lot of impressions for all possible positions that can be done with amplitude.
Another advantage is the possibility of tendon ducts effects / amps (instrument input that goes into two different amps for example), what can not configure with eleven or ReValver to live.
The value for money is okay.
With experience, I would do this choice (good sound card + + amplitude controls noon). But there two years ago, Eleven was a better solution, not anymore
