I am currently working on a soundtrack and bought a software sampler for this
project. They
(IK Multimedia) also make AmpliTube and it was convincing enough when I tried
it. So I use
that when I don't want to disturb anyone, as I am working at home. It actually
is very
convenient! The real amp that I have is a 64 bandmaster. Those blonde piggybacks
are not
offered as models, but good Deluxe, Twin and AC30 sounds - I use all three
occasionally.
Not only for guitar, but also for Wurlitzer and reverb feeds. Also I love the
50s tweeds very
much for a broader spectrum of amp sounds. The built-in reverb is barely ok, but
I use my
outboard kendrick whenever approbiate. The tremolo is cool. Those quality amp
models are
the greatest workflow pusher since the invention of the audio sequencer - for
me. But for a
REAL surfsound I am glad I have my Bandmaster, a ribbon mike, and good condenser
mike.
