Duplicate CA3+ sims w/6L6 & EL-34 Power option ...?

[R.D.]

There’s been a lot of talk the last couple of days about the CA3+Rhy & CA3+LD ….

Quite a few of us would prefer a more “Marshal-ly” power amp section, instead of the MESA 2:90 that Cliff originally modelled.

I missed the forum threads where Cliff specifically said he couldn’t or wouldn’t separate the Pre-Amp / Power-Amp with an efx loop option ( that’s understandable if it were to make the Axe easier to reverse engineer ) ….

And evidently he’s also said he can’t provide an option ( ie; a switch like the “bright or boost”, for either Power Amp ) within the sim ….

I guess that leads to my question(s) ….

Thanks for voting !

Hell YES! : Definitly on board with this one!

The CAE preamp was designed with a Marshall power amp ( the power section of a plexi/JMP to be exact, but a JCM800 would also work ), so I think it would only be fair to have that too 8-)

If the Marshall poweramp is such a good match for the CAE, then just change it to use that. We don't need more of the same amp models IMO.

I DON'T disagree with you at all :!: But I thought there were a bunch of people out here that like it the way it is and didn't want it changed :

That's why I phrased the question the way I did ....

The CAE with a Boogie 290 compared to with a Marshall poweramp are 2 completely different sounds. I'd rather have it changed and couldn't be happier, but I know some like it like it is. Hence the suggestions. Again, if you ask me, change it to a Marshall and be done with it! :

The CAE has been so HUGE in my world that I can only support the wish :!:

Not having a menu dropdown with Boogie / Marshall / VHT ... power amps is the only disadvantage I'm mentioning to potential Axe-FX customers, so I'm dreaming that one day Cliff will have the epiphanies to safely incorporate this 8-)

If not, I too believe the CAE is huge enough to make other versions with Marshall (and VHT?)
But I also understand how it could become a mess like this :
Even I wouldn't want this to happen to many other "magic combinations" (more so because I don't know them : )

ultimatly the option to select power section would be the best. like the tonestack.

Please please please do this Cliff.

I would kill for a CAE el34.
