    I just tried to purchase the UAD Lexicon 224 Digital Reverb from the UAD website. 
    I created an account and attempted to add the plugin to my cart.
    The UAD website says , "You must own a UAD-2 device to purchase this product", .. ..  Holy Cow!!! ?
    And to think, I was willing to pay the $199.00  asking price for their plugin.

    That was divine intervention telling me that I didn't need it,... and also my wallet saying,  El cheapo, I told you to get that Apollo Audio Interface.

    Yes...UAD Plugins have to have hardware, as they are hardware based,
    meaning that they run on hardware DSP and not off of your CPU, which
    saves you some CPU load.

    Don't you regret or not yet ?

    I definitely regret...but way more than I really needed.
    If I were doing this for living, I could have more easily 
    justified it...but I'm ok...

    But, for someone who IS making a living at this, to me,
    it's a very worthwhile investment IMO

    Larry , i was playing with the AT orange today and to my surprise , Tiny terror and dual terror set to tiny , same settings same cabinet + mic ect ....sounds way different ... did ya ever tried those in real life ?

    Different Amps should sound different....even if they are both Orange.  Different Preamp
    and Power sections...Tiny is 15 Watt and Dual is a 30 Watt, but is selectable between 30/15 and
    7 Watt...

    Hey Larry,


    I'm finding it mighty hard to locate a $29.99 deal on this site.    ?  WAVES it's not!

     

    If you have a $50 voucher, then you can get the Neve Preamp for $39...
    That's as close as you'll ever get to $29 deal at UAD...but their plugins 
    are quite exceptional so...there's that...

    Speak Left guyr or Right guy , don't know who's Chappy Larry ...sorry ahahah 

    Chapman (Chappy) is on the left...I can't remember the other
    guys name. Chapman is the man behind Chapman Guitars!
     I have a Chapman ML-2 (Original) not the new, cheap
    ones, which is up for sale on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace.

    Looks like great deal - I broke down and ordered one.
    The only thing that I think that is really missing is that it doesn't include a foot switch but at this price that's a forgivable omission.

    I ordered one too....It will be here tomorrow!  I hope that it
    sounds half as good as it does in the videos!

    I just sold my Bogner Alchemist 212 a few days ago....and I need
    something less "heavy" and still gig-able should the need ever arise
    again, and also something that I can practice with in my Bedroom.
    Since the band broke up I've been offing all my equipment, other
    than my PRS CE24, and I had a lot of EXPENSIVE pedals...I also
    have a complete Light Show that I'll off once I've sold out all
    my Pedals, which are all up for sale on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace.
    I won't be doing a "band" thing again.  I'm too old to invest my time
    and money into something that others just won't take seriously.
    I invested 6 years of my time, and THOUSANDS of dollars into my last
    band, only to have everyone flake out just when we were getting to the
    point of "making it" locally...we had just played Harpo's, and The Machine
    Shop was our last gig.

    I figure that, with my PRS Electric, and my PRS Acoustic,
    I'm set for recording whatever I need to here at home, and I can
    mic this amp if it lives up to the videos.

    I did the 3 Pay thing, so can pay over 3 months...

    And the Chandler or AT orange , how do you find those ? 

    I'm not particularly fond of PA Amp Sims...I prefer the AT4 ones...
    not that hey aren't OK... I just find them at bit "lacking" IMO

    Larry , talking about some Bassman tones ,how do you find the PA one versus the AT Fenders ?

    I think they both are "on par"...not exceptional.  I personally give the edge to Amplitube Fender

    You can easily stay within $200 range and get Fender or Epiphone acoustic guitar that will play and sound excellent.

    This track has been recorded with me Epiphone DR-200CE Na (CE = cutaway electric, NA = Natural finish).

    https://www.bandlab.com/soundwise/alisa-miller-augustin-21818?revId=b684723f-e61a-e811-80c3-00155d60d108

    Minimal processing applied.

    If it doesn't sound acceptably good, I don't know what does.

    I agree with this.  There are some Fender and Epiphone Guitars in the 2 to 3 hundred
    dollar range that sound excellent for the money...are they great guitars?  No, not great,
    but exceptional entry level guitars that sound like guitars costing much more!  Also, as was
    stated, the Yamaha's in the price range also are very nice...

    Remember, as Yoda says:

    "There is no try....only do....or do not"

    Thanks Lars.  Problem is, I can't play at all, so no guitar speaks to me.  :(

    Just use your ears and strum the strings...ONE will stand out.  You don't
    have to be a Guitar Player to know what SOUNDS good to you!  Some
    Will sound thin and tinty...some will sound dull and lifeless....but ONE
    is going to say to you "this sounds GOOD to me".  It really is that easy!

  13. Yamaha's are nice acoustics...but, for about the same money
    used you can get a better guitar, that is, unless you want new...

    When it comes to acoustics, I HAVE to be able to put my hands
    (and ears) on it.  I usually go to Guitar Center, sit in the Acoustic
    Room, and then play the guitars in the price range I'm looking for.
    Once I've found one that "speaks" to me, then I go on the hunt for
    the best deal possible for that guitar.

    As I stated in the other thread, as a RULE, I never buy something that
    I haven't played.  Buying that PRS Angelus AE50e was the first time
    I've EVER bought something "unheard", but I did watch some videos
    to be able to at least "hear" what it sounded like.  So I took a chance,
    and it paid off.  Sadly, that's usually not the case, because an Acoustic
    has to "speak" to you, and you'll KNOW when it does!

    Go to Guitar Center and TRY the Guitars, to at least get an idea of
    WHAT speaks to you!  THEN make a purchase!  That's the best advice
    I can give you!
