Luckily not when they go to concertsTruth be told, I listened to it on my cell phone because that's how the kids evaluate most stuff nowadays.
I can hear the difference. But recordings are just that. Your stuff really translates when you are there in person. IMO. Oh.....and can't stop won't stop!!Wow, why am I busting my ass making things so accurate when people can't hear how obviously different the first two are?
That's fair, but I have been just as happy with the feel department on various modelers and yes I do have real amps to compare to. If a digital modeler reacts nicely to picking softer and harder, turning the guitar volume knob etc then I'm going to be content.You have expressed this same sentiment often and If I understand you correctly you appear to associate these comments toward what you hear. A good example is this thread, we are all listening to 4 samples and I think that we can all agree that they are very similar. I think we can also agree that what we hear coming from the Fractal hardware and software at this point in time is so good that "improvements" to such could be considered minuscule or as you say: "diminishing returns". However I would point out that the last several years the advancements have been toward feel which we can't hear. The amps, effects and cabinet models all feel better which is extremely important and maybe more so as we advance and move forward. We can't feel those 4 samples in the first post so the agreement that they sound similar is one point but not the most important one.
But, maybe I misunderstood your post as well as past ones where you stated the same.
That kind of puts me in the camp that can't get excited about amp modeling improvements anymore. I appreciate Cliff's efforts in that but for me, as the end user it's only so much "more real" this stuff can get until we are talking about diminishing returns. It's kind of like "yay, the new iPhone has a better camera, but the previous one was already really damn good" with smartphones. And that's where Fractal has been since Axe-Fx 2 already: really damn good amp modeling.
