Unlike other ASIO solutions, it allows multiple apps to use the sound device at the same time. I am not sure how it compares to other ASIO solutions in terms of latency though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's way too much fun! Yep, I also got Satch for the Rockman. Instant great memories. The distortion sound is the Boston sound of course, but can be adapted a lot with other gear. My Rockman gear is also in dire need of TLC. ? The one in AT5 should last forever. ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Rockman had broken solder joints on the headphone out jacks. I resoldered those and it fired right up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are your guys' favorites and must-have Amplitude packs? I'm trying to prioritize... First, play with what you have in there. Just the starting included gear is already quite good. Try to figure out what sounds you are missing or would like to have better than what's already there for your playing style. For example if crunch sounds are not to your liking, maybe the orange pack would be a good addition. If it's the cleans or slightly clean that your looking for maybe the Fender packs would be great for you. Personal favorites of mine are the Fender and Orange packs for guitar and SVX for bass. And probably because I haven't tried the others yet! ? But I want them all!!!! ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a guitar player, and only own AT4 MAX because IK decided to give it to me for free in the Total Studio MAX bundle last year. My AT4 MAX gear all came across to AT5 CS just fine, and I do like the new interface better! I have even tried some guitar amps on a few virtual guitars plugins, and they sound cool, but I have no idea how to play them like a real guitarist... ? Hi abacab, I also purchased the Total Studio Max bundle last year. I later decided to get an Axe IO Solo so bought it as a bundle with AT5 so my incremental cost for AT5 SE was about $50. My current favorite bass amp sim is the Aguilar 750 from AT5 (NY Bass). The Axe IO Solo has worked out to be one of the best studio purchases I've made. Guitars and basses play and sound better through it. A nice bonus was windows sound sources keep playing even after I load Reaper. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Fender 2 better than 1, the Mesa Boogie amps are awesome, both SVX bundles rock for bass, I like the Marshall amps in Slash. I haven't delved in to Satch, Brian May or Dimebag yet because I just picked them up. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Red Special stomp is a pretty cool pickup sim and it's nice to have a treble boost. Also, not a huge fan of Slash but love the MXR Chorus in that collection.

DeeringAmps Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 4 hours ago, bluzdog said: like the Marshall amps in Slash The Silver Jubilee and the 2203 are fine amps. The Jubilee was one I had to "beat" when I built my collaborator his amps. He loved his Jube! I had a 2210, great amp, never had a 2203. 1 hour ago, Magic Russ said: not a huge fan of Slash tone or style? t 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grem Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Not a huge Slash fan either, (I do like SCOM and WTTJ, great lead playing on both) But I do like his collection! Mesa Boogie collection is my fav out of all of them. Not sure why but I still gravitate towards the Amplitube Clean amp!! I will pass a secret on to everyone here, AT Tube Comp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Boileau Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Actually, liking Slash or not does not really have that much relevance here. ? What is important in regards to AT is if you like or not Slash's sound and think you can use it or not in your music! But I know, that's what you guys mean... ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
