Axe fx 3 vs Tube amp

If you're afraid of soldering irons then continue buying hyped digital "mimic" tech. Biasing every year? Tube amps regularly last many decades before someone even needs to pull the chassis, and even then its because electrolytic capacitors in the power section shit the bed, which will also happen with axe fx. Why do you think anyone "needs" an endless array of amp models anyway? A simple pedalboard and 2 tube amps will give you more options than most will ever need tonally. You strike me as the kind of person that keeps the volume control on their guitars at 10 100% of the time.

It doesnt taste the same though. Every modeler on the market just "gets super close bro".

You gotta bias them every time you put in new tubes, if that last you decades then it's probably cause you don't play very often at all or practice smoke on the water once a year just to claim you've played before. why get a pedal board and 2 amps when you have everything in one with many amp models. how the fuck do 2 amps give you more options then having pretty much every amp. You're probably someone who believes in tone wood religiously and even more extremely than isis does to islam.

It does though, you will not hear insane differences between the models on the axe fx and a regular tube amp.

>why have 2 things that do everything you need tonally when you can have an endless array of shit that barely gets close
Are you just pretending to be retarded?

I agree, you wont hear insane differences, but I can still hear the differences when I'm playing through them, which is my point. An axe fx does not respond like a tube amp, nor can it ever sound exactly like one.

Pretends to be close? It sounds the same. the quarentine has really activated those dormant chromosomes hasn't it?

Yeah if you really value the exact sound of a tube amp and can bear with the maintenance then there's no choice but to get one. For me, I can't hear the difference.

>it sounds the same
It literally doesnt. I'm sorry your boss katana, bias, and shit ears cant let you see that

Nobody mentioned anything else other than the axe fx. Keep lying to yourself about what your ears hear. Go fap to your vinyl

I own vintage and modern tube amps, I also own hardware and software amp modelers. I use both for recording; tube for main tracks and digital for stacked tracks. It comes down to workflow for me. Its easy to dial up a virtual amp in 10 seconds and lay down a track when I need to, its all about the end product. I also appreciate the tone and pride of ownership of a real tube amp. Also, flexing on kids at gigs with my big swinging amp dick feels good too.

Boss katana isn't a modeler like the axe fx u mouth breathing cunt. It's a legit solid state amp

I'm saying you've never owned a tube amp and buy into the hype of all digital everything because you're ear is garbage. Go plug into a tube amp, play through, plug into an axe fx, play through it, and tell me they react and sound identical. Maybe you can get 99.999% there with headphones or studio monitors, but standing in the room with the amplifier itself is going to reveal a difference that is night and day.

Yeah I'd love to own just 1 tube amp to have it as a relic of old technology, must feel kinda neat.

No shit? I'm saying fanboys for one will fanboy for the other. Thanks for proving my point.

Yes, we've all went to a music superstore and played a tube amp before, quit flexing your spending cause of your midlife crisis. it sounds the same to me, your old boomer ego pretends you hear a day and night difference.

Exactly my point, tube snobs don't know shit about anything. Don't know the difference between the 2 types of technology. Self proving your own autism.

>tfw 30 is boomer
I'm sorry you're poor and your ear for tone is nonexistent

You will never get a transistor to react and sound exactly like a tube. I'm sorry that you're too stupid to understand this

tfw spendign 3k on a axe fx is poor. I'm sorry that your ears suck at hearing. Make sure you buy a tube amp with a tonewood casing, they sound better bro. paul reed smith said so.

Why are you calling people tube snobs when you're shilling a product meant to emulate them?

Because tube snobs shill tube amps

Wow proving my point again, you're not even trying to flex your autism anymore. Yeah this applies to slid state amps. Modelers emulate the tube response with software and impulse response.

And yet again, they can barely even get close.

Again, they sound almost identical

Because you have been playing for 5 years and have no idea what you're talking about

lol clearly you don't since you think solid state amps are the same as modelers

I dont, considering I build and modify amps in my spare time. I actually have knowledge on the subject. Which makes one of us

You're a faggot

Well the LARP must be strong with you since you believe those two are the same, or else you would'nt have used that video as an example. Did work on semiconductors and signal processing in uni. Sorry that self education has failed you.

Ur a nigger

For 1/8th of the price of this shit you could buy a good quality tube amplifier.

You absolutely could, the point of this is you can have many amps instead of one if you wanna play a different genre and what not. and it doesn't come with the tube maintenance

>literally an electrical engineer
Aside from ignoring my statements to insert your own and being completely ignorant, I'm glad you took a class at uni. You obviously needed a few more.
