Maybe I should try this later - I am not getting good results from Dyna-Cab so far. Very hollow, scooped and harsh, with almost every setting I have tried - which granted was only a couple hours of tweaking, but not in line with the experience of others.
Thanks.
I’m curious about this as well. I wonder if the install perhaps could get corrupted in some way, or since it’s still in beta, perhaps some bugs are happening during axe edit and or front panel.
I must admit, I spent some time with all of it last night after the first day, and I learned a lot and the tones were fantastic! However, the 5153 cab did and still sounds (to me) hollow and fizzy with lots of sub low. So I wonder if there is some truth to doing a revert, and then reinstall of both firmware and dyna cabs. It could also be using a combo of mics and adjusting them to get more midrange out of them and less fizz and boom, and learning how that works on each individual cabinet. I’d like to get there ideally by mic placement before needing to do any cuts, however low cuts (for me) seem essential to controlling the low end on everything I’ve tried so far. Also, if you do low cuts on one mic only, that dramatically affects the low end phase response, which is to be expected, so matching those gives the most solid low end, which can be preferred, or not preferred; the cuts in the preamp section seem easiest as a global.
On that note of the 5153 cabinet, I also felt like the sub lows remained literally until you were 3/4+ of the distance away which I found strange in real life micing situations. Usually low end drops off fast, and while the tone changes when pulling the mic back on this particular dyna-can, it appears the low almost seems to sound the same the whole time until you get very far back.
Just my observations. I don’t want to seem ungrateful; Fractal’s hard work is very much appreciated and I’m starting to get the hang of the marshall and mesa cabs and getting fantastic tones.
