[QUOTE="CV355, post: 16145339, member: 181885"] I went through a "high gain" phase 10 years ago. The typical "max the gain, scoop the mids" amp-noob foolishness that sounds great alone but absolutely terrible in any mix. Then I started really enjoying the natural distortion at lower gain levels. Now, most of my amp sims are sitting at 3 or less. Really enjoying making sims close to Blackstar, Laney, and Orange. I miss my AxeFXII- was stupid of me to sell that thing. When djent was "the next big thing" and everyone wanted monstrous compression and attack for the chunkiest of chunk, I fell in love with some of the boutique amps and models that the 7 and 8 string guys were swearing by. That whole following sort of fizzled out over the last few years, and now it seems like the "next big thing" is modernization of classic amps and custom IR. Everything I play is through my PC and VST amp sims. [/QUOTE]
