Hey guys,
since you helped me with my topic yesterday and you are all very very helpful I thought I might try to address another topic.
I have the FM3 since around X-Mas last year and I am so far pretty happy with it. I play in a Hardrock / Metal Band. In the past I played through a Randall RD45 with 2x12 G212 (Harley Benton Vintage) Speakers (which I don't have anymore. Bad stuff happened and I needed to sell it... different story) and had some effects like a Cry Baby, Metal Muff, some Rev, Delay etc. I play the FM3 currently through a Headrush 108 with the global eq from the "flattening the Headrush curve" thread which helped a lot. But something is still... I don't know how to say it. Something feels not right? I know that through the Headrush I get the full signal chain including the Microphones from the IRs. But everything sounds always a little bit... artificial? If I try to play some good old Rock 'n Roll or choose a Fender Amp they never have that real tube sound and I got the feeling that every Amp sounds a little bit the same. Don't get me wrong, I have the sounds I like and I play with my band, but I have somehow the feeling that something is missing. I thought, ok maybe the presets are missing something, so I invested in a Fremen Preset pack. They are all pretty good, but it doesn't sound and feel like I play through a real Amp somehow (which of course it is not).
So since I am a little bit tight on my budget right know (we all are - always -, right?) what could help me to improve the sound? We want to go In-Ear in our rehearsal room for band practice soon so better FRFRs or SSD and Cab will improve the sound through that. But at least for playing at home I somehow want to have a little bit of that feeling back. I think what I might miss is that "Amp in the room" sound which I have read a lot. Which might not be achievable through FRFRs or is it?
Sorry if that question was already addressed (I am somehow pretty sure it was) but I couldn't find a solution for my specific (artificiality) problem. Or maybe I just need to get used to that new feeling.
Thanks a lot!
