is boss katana the best amp until really high end stuff? looking to do metal and shoegaze

wraith elm
#

first the katana 100 lol

chilly delta
#

For metal, yes for physical amps... But I would say an interface like the scarlett solo and Neural DSP amp sims would be better for metal

wraith elm
#

5150, orange, several heads are around 600

chilly delta
#

What, where do you find a 5150 for 600

#

If that's true, then yeah grab a 5150

wraith elm
#

oh it was b stock, it's 750

#

Evh 5150 Iconic 80W Top BK

Switch to digital

#

Best solution

wraith elm
#

what if he plays on stage with a cab ?

#

it's A solution

I dont wanna be a guitarist whos heard different at different parts

I assumed that after the katana, amps between the range of 400-900 aren't going to be an upgrade from a katana and good metal amps start in the thousand dollar range. Hence why I was advocating for Neural DSP

#

Get a processor and plug it into foh speakers whats easier than that

#

Or an audio interface

wraith elm
#

I'm not good at the shoegaze part tho

chilly delta
#

Same

#

I'm a metal amp connoisseur tho

#

ENGL, EVH, Peavey, Soldano, Victory, Mesa/Boogie, revv, randall, rivera, hughes & kettner, PRS, diezel, wizard, splawn, blackstar, fortin, laney, marshall, Friedman, orange, carvin, bogner, and bugera.

digital is a solution but I won't use a laptop as a rig

in the bedroom (which is the usual case yeah)

old wadi
#

The fxs there are just the same

wraith elm
#

nothing compared to a laptop

#

I use an axefx on stage

#

well, I use it everywhere obviously

old wadi
#

If i had that much of money i wouldnhire someone to play instead of me lol

wraith elm
#

if I had even more money I wouldn't even need to leave my bed

#

a stable computer + vst + a good interface + sorts of backups = not that cheap

#

the real power of vst is reamping inside the computer

old wadi
#

Do you pay for vsts

wraith elm
#

if I was to get one it would be the petrucci 😄

#

I have a pair of free ones but I never used them, I have an axefx

old wadi
wraith elm
#

it's the principle yeah

#

but live, I'll never try it

With tone studio. The default tones are meh

somber rover
#

defaults are pretty good tbh

#

but tone studio is def an upgrade

chilly delta
somber rover
#

its still very versatile even withotu tone studio

chilly delta
#

Hence why I prefer the lt25 for metal. Although I haven't had the opportunity to mess around with tone studio

wraith elm

we still don't know which usage @vale burrow asks for
