Linux guitar amplifier simulator

Hey guys,
I just installed Ubuntu with a RT kernel addon and I'm doing my first forays into the OS. I've been a long time windows user but I figured I'd change to linux for a new perspective. On windows, I run a line6 guitar port for my guitar amplification needs. Unfortunately, the Line6 Linux software project does not support the Guitar Port. Luckily, I have a Tascam US122 with a HighZ input that I can plug my guitar into. I was just wondering what software was available to me for guitar amp simulation? Is there a guide that explains what to do? So far, google hasn't very helpful, my searches lead me to a guitar that's actually being converted into a LINUX GUITAR. Anyways, thanks -Chris _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@... http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user |

I seem to recall a puredata patch or maybe it was an AMS patch for guitar distortion/amp simulation. Possibly the easiest way though is to use something like jack rack, and the CAPS cabinet plugins maybe with some TAP tubewarmth.. I am personally using a Behringer v-amp2 though, as it seemed a simpler solution to the Hi-Z input problems, and adds all the distortion and cab simulation I need.

Miller Puckette has a fairly elaborated Pd patch for playing a guitar: http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/Publications/pd07-reprint.dir/ It's not an amp simulation, though. And then Julius Smith will do a talk on guitar simulation at the LAC in two weeks: http://lac.linuxaudio.org/?page_id=21 (the paper will be there for download for LAC) Ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org__ _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@... http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user |

Hm, I don't know where, but you could ask Miller by mail - or visit the LAC2008 in Köln, where he'll be as well. ;) Ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org__ _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@... http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user |

First, get to know Jack: http://jackaudio.org. Install it and QJackCtl (linked to from the Jack page). Then install jack-rack (http://jack-rack.sourceforge.net/) and the CAPS LADSPA plugin package (http://quitte.de/dsp/caps.html). The CAPS site then tells you what plugins to load in jack-rack: http://quitte.de/dsp/caps.html#GimmeASetupAlready Using QJackCtl, connect the capture port your guitar is connected to to the jack-rack inputs and the jack-rack outputs to the playback ports corresponding to your hardware outputs. Then play the main riff to "Smoke on the Water" over and over again. There are other hosts you can use, but jack-rack is the simplest. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@... http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user |

I'd look into wineasio + Native Instruments Guitar Rig 3.
I know that it's not free and that is expensive... but I think that at this time is the best amp simulation available and runs very well on linux. So think about it as if you were buying a POD but with much better sound. For the hi-z issue, people with cards that only have line inputs can get a DI-box for 20-30 bucks that will do the job.

The point aboubt "much better sound" is highly arguable, and POD will work with any operating system or even without computer at all. IMHO, if you choose to pay for the sound, it's better to pay for a hardware device. Regards, Dmitry. P.S. My choice of guitar sound device (portable and suitable for a small room) is PODxt. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@... http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user |

What is "better" depends on the music you want to play, any software that is stable and capable of providing the sound you want to hear is level in such a competition. I do very well with CAPS-plugins in AMS: http://lapoc.de/demos/ams-guitrack-killwaveshort.ogg http://lapoc.de/demos/ams-guitrack-tschoepeled02.ogg http://lapoc.de/demos/caps-walzersturm02-0312-2007.ogg > IMHO, if you choose to pay for the sound, it's better to pay for a > hardware device. I absolutely back that: for 300E you get a hardware recording amp that beats *any* softwaresolution. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHtbhM1Aecwva1SWMRAn/pAJ9igRwi7sCcCI7qrAD77A3oEvXLXQCffw39 Nog4Dmmml1sX9jh7Yju8fkg= =40Uk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@... http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user |

Thats not quite right. If you only want to play the standard sounds, you can play the POD without a computer. But enclosed to the POD, you will find a software where you can modify the preset and build your cabinets. BTW. software were written by emagic. bye c~ _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@... http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user |

I've owned PODs, PODxts, Vamps, and line6 amplifiers. They all have pros and cons, and sound very good for the price. So, I'm not saying that GR is better, I just find GR to have a better sound to my ears, and I also feel it more "real" while playing if that makes sense. Of course, if you need something to gig any hardware solution is more convenient and reliable, but (again IMHO) I don't think any hardware solution in that price range gets even close to GR's sound quality. Anyway, everyone has different needs (and ears) and if Christian was happy with GuitarPort maybe all the options we're discussing are overkill for him :P Saludosss -- Oscar Morante GPG: CA7417FF "Self-education is, I firmly believe, the only kind of education there is." - Isaac Asimov. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@... http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user |

I'd love to give a try :) I absolutely back that: for 300E you get a hardware recording amp that I'd love to know what are that options. I'm thinking about getting a backup for my Mesa DR, and if I can have a hardware amp sounding like GR for 300 bucks I WANT IT!

I'd love to give a try :) Of course :-) get Alsa Modular Synth and the recent version of CAPS then use this patch in ams: http://lapoc.de/spinoffs/ams-guitrack-RFC1.tar.gz I made the samples using this patch but to make it sound like this one needs to take some effort to set up the input. The patch reacts a little unpredictable sometimes depending on the signal it gets. Both hardware and software (alsamixer, input of the patch) settings are delicate. I use a small phonic-mixer to plug my guitars in and a MAudio Audiophile soundcard. The most ipmortant module to get a decent basic sound is the compressor. use a tool like qarecord or meterbridge to monitor the input and set it to be loud enough and far enough from clipping then fiddle with the compressor before you apply FX and distortion. The compressor is most important for the sound. Before I inserted it, I only managed to have the choice between a feeble, bleak clean sound and screeching blast. The patch has two AMP-modules. mixing both is possible but even more delicate if distortion is involved. for metal sounds it is easier to send the signal to one of the AMPs only. > > I absolutely back that: for 300E you get a hardware recording amp that >> beats *any* softwaresolution. >> > Ill ask my neighbor richboy guitar player what gadgets he tested recently, before I switched to ams I used a Zoom9000 that is OK for practising and for FXed sounds with heavy flanger and the like but misses the punch and dynamics I would expect from a guitar sound. I also had quite good results with a modular system: Ibanez distortion pedal --> H&K RedBox --> mixer(mic-in)--> 6 band graphic EQ -->Line IN. Gave me everything between Killing Joke and Slayer leads (not that great for good clean sounds though...) best regards HZN -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHtiPq1Aecwva1SWMRAvWKAJ4zrbIUCoL2yv00xROoPB1HW+yFAACfa3LB mZvdoilGe8q9nbxImtyUifY= =QfEI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@... http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user |
