Hi all,
I made some testing with my new matrix gt1000 vs my heavy Peavey classic 50 50...
I have an Axe FX II
Honestly I have to say that i'm a bit disappointed.
I've read all your nice posts about matrix and how it's better then any Tube amp with axe fx...
The result of a couple of intense hour of testing is:
Matrix is nice but as soon as I switch to tube amp I get the right tone!
A real tube tone...
Matrix mostly with medium gain patches is quite "hard" and and less "pounchy"
Peavey is more "silky" and soft but with more dynamics and headroom...
The difference is like a real 22 years girl and a plastic doll! :-((
I'hope to be wrong...
I know there are some tweeks to make more "Tube sounding" Axe patches but my question is: why some of you is so happy of matrix sound "out of the box"?
