I tested continuity between all the ground connections and everything seems fine. I'm testing this with a fuzz pedal and know the power supply is good because it doesn't hum when going in straight from the interface. What does make a difference is touching the enclosure, so there seems an issue with my wiring. Doesn't make any difference if the ground is lifted or not. It attenuates the level and the impedance knob makes an audible difference. I think the wiring is correct and the damn thing works. Now I've built half a dozen or so guitar pedals from kits and a few other bits and bobs, but I don't have a solid grasp of electronics and I can't read a schematic to save my life. I had to make a couple of changes because 1) I don't want an XLR input and 2) I really didn't want to spend that much on a transformer.
Some are darker than others and have their place and some have some crazy high end sizzle that would go well in busy, heavy mix.So I've built a reamp box based on the Jensen schematic below. So far, there are plenty that work for me. It could be my ears, the eq, my guitar or just not what I'm looking for. Having said that, if I try and it and I don't like it, it's not the creator's fault if it is a faithful re-creation. We act in blind faith that the poster's capture sounds true to the source. It sounds great to me.Įdit: I know it takes a lot of work especially when it takes multiple times to sound right.
BUILD A REAMP BOX FREE
My favorite kemper Morgan ac20 profile was the free one. The only situation where you dont need a re-amp box is if you are running a digital.
BUILD A REAMP BOX PROFESSIONAL
There are a lot of professional kemper profile makers and for good reason, people have different tastes. Its very easy to set up a guitar tone you like when recording. The same can said with IRs, cabs and speakers. ****ing glorious.Ĭlick to expand.I wouldn't say there are that many bad profiles.(outside of the ones that didn't copy properly) As with modelers, captures are eq and guitar dependent. Simply devine playing through my actual 35 year old Marshall this evening(1st owner) I'm ashamed i forgot. Imma gonna hold out on what I'm hearing in the room. If it doesnt get there? I'll drop some analog clips. (some IK presets are offensive to the amps I own) I'm willing to hold out, as we're all essentially Beta testers. I'm missing some mid knock, (my bag) and the sweet high end I crave. I understand why you guys are missing the low end. The last new amp I bought was in the 80's. Although trained ears(my expectation) usually know it, before they press record. I'm wondering if room modes can be affecting some of the high gain guys bass response? Bass is the 1st to go. (As quality monitors do) I used a 57 to minimize room reflections. I'm curious if the freq sweep in the beginning was checking both amp response, and room modes. If sharing profiles can only be done on ToneNet and only for free, and no possibility to charge for it, then the Michael Britts of this world understandeably won't make an effort to make the best possible profiles with it.Īnyone else having a capture thats not remotely like the amp? (I've only tried 1) Any corrections you've made are welcome. A reamp box is designed to take a line level signal and make it mimic an instrument. You can use a di backwards as a reamp box, but it isnt technically right. Your interface already has that built in. The danger with Tonex is that the users' outboard gear can be wrong (especially the connection Interface Out to Amp In) and as a result too many bad/mediocre profiles will be shared which would cause a bad rep for the software. If you get an external di, all it will do is change your instrument signal into a mic signal. Of course with an updated Kemper box, noone would wanna use the old profiles and they'd have to start it all from zero, making the new box less attractive and the old one obsolete. Their dilemma is that the biggest selling point is the availability of profiles for their box and that it's a good platform for people with gear and know-how to make a business selling them, so they will make huge efforts doing the best possible. Kemper keep telling that their profiling amp is as good as it gets and no new version will come out. Click to expand.which kind of makes sense as the audio converters in your interface and the processing power of your computer will both be superior than a >10 year old box.
