TONS OF HOME RECORDISTS UTILIZE DIGITAL-AMP MODELS for their guitar tones, and they are simple and great-sounding solutions. However, at times, you might get a bug to explore some other tonal options that also work in personal-studio situations. Here are three relatively new tools I’ve tried recently, and I really dug the results.
EMULATE!
Neunaber Iconoclast. The Iconoclast Stereo Parametric Speaker Emulator ($249 street) lets you plug in your pedal board or guitar preamp and dial in a host of cool, natural, and organic (or even weird, if that’s your thing) speaker timbres. The controls are powerful—if strangely labeled (Low is actually speaker size, Mid controls speaker/amp interactions, and High shifts the frequency cut-off)—and I was able to simulate small cabs, combos, half-stacks, and yowling barrages with ease. The Iconoclast is also a cool plug-and-play option for when you want to get down and work with minimal time setup. neunaber.net
