They deliver all you would expect from an amp sim line. I could expound on all of the advancements in technology that have made this possible, but that again would pale into insignificance the moment you fire these up for yourselves and hear the tone nirvana that is delivered by these amp models! I had considered doing a video review showing through some settings, different models, features etc and decided that it would better serve this review to simply urge you to try it for yourself! After all, you cannot demonstrate through a video exactly how these amps respond to your own playing style. The responsiveness and playability of the Waves SuperModel series is something that you have to hear and play for yourself to believe. The reason I was caught off guard was in part due to my experience with the ageing GTR3, which offers a great selection of amps and pedals but never really felt like I was playing through an amp.īut mostly, it was because the instant I hit a string with the default setting in the Waves Archon model, I was surrounded by this beautiful clear tone that (up to this point) I had only been able to obtain from a physical amp! It felt like I was in the room with a real amplifier! Finally the holy grail of smooth satisfying clean tone was available at my fingertips, and I can honestly say I was more than a little surprised. If you’re okay with coloring your guitar recordings, saturation can answer many top-end issues without having to resort to frequency fishing and extreme forms of subtractive EQ.From the moment I downloaded and plugged in a guitar (In this instance a cherry red 1998 Godin LGxT) I was completely hooked. A dynamic resonance suppressor like Oeksound’s Soothe will provide you with a transparent solution, but saturation may work to solve the problem as well.Ī multiband saturator like FabFilter’s Saturn will allow you to specifically target harsh frequencies, but nothing is stopping you from using a broadband saturator like Softube Tape. Saturation is often used to beef up kick drums, 808s, vocals, and guitars, but it can also be used to tame high-end harshness, which is a widespread electric guitar issue. You can collapse a stereo reverb into mono by using the stock utility device found in your digital audio workstation (DAW).Ĭheck out “4 of the Best Reverb Plugins on the Market” for an assortment of highly recommended reverb plugins.
Send signal from your stereo guitar to a mono reverb panned to the center of your stereo image. In this situation, you’ve used up the space on the sides of your mix, but there’s still space up the middle.
What if you’ve double tracked your electric guitar and created a stereo recording by panning the two recordings left and right. You can record your electric guitar directly into your audio interface and run the recording through an amp simulation suite like GTR3 or Guitar Rig these plugins will drastically expand your palette of sonic options. It’s alright if you only have access to one guitar or amp most casual guitar players are in the same boat. By tightly arranging multiple guitars, you can create the illusion of a single, massive guitar.

The reason your electric guitar doesn’t sound as thick and full as the guitars in your favorite rock songs is that you aren’t using enough of them. Layer Different Guitars TogetherĪchieving a massive wall of sound can be done by layering different guitars together. A guitar that sounds good on its own won’t necessarily sound the same when you place it amongst other instruments. Once you start applying processing to your guitar tracks, toggle off the solo button and listen to how your guitars interact with the rest of your mix. If you’re performing detailed audio repair, or comping guitar takes, it makes sense to solo your guitars.
