grouping in general. not the coding side.Are you talking in terms of grouping them in general or implementing said groupings in the code?

Hopefully we will have an official release before the weekend. Couple more amp models should be in there too: Two Rock Jet and Fuchs ODS50. Also I have finished the "FAS Crunch" model which is my take on the ultimate Plexi.
I also have a Fender Bandmaster on the way and maybe a Bad Cat.

WOWzer!!!
That Two Rock model isn't merely fat, it's obese.
How about the Freedman Steve Stevens amp it sounds killer. Would be a great amp to model

Here's a clam-filled demo of the Two Rock model: www.fractalaudio.com/tmp/two_rock_test.mp3
I like mr Golds idea. I wide imagine that when dialling in a patch that most peopl e( as I do) have an idea of the type of gain required first, then select and amp to suit etc. so starting, clean > crunch > classic rock type > death metal would make it easier to select. Especially if like me you don't really know the exotic Amp market meaning I wouldn't know if a 2rock was a blues type amp to a clean twangy one. Lol
Thanks
We tossed around these kinds of ideas in the beta team and the trouble is there are a lot of amps that cover a wide variety of sounds. Buttery for example -- where do you place that? It can do clean, it can do crunch and it can get pretty hot. And then there's possibly a desire to group like-amps together. For example, if you did it by clean -> crunch -> high gain, you'd end up fracturing channel trios like the 5153 in the list. It's advantageous to have those three models right next to each other so you step through them Green -> Blue -> Red.
It's an oddly complex problem to get "right". There seemed to really only be "right for some circumstances" type solutions to the problem. No "right for all circumstances" solution.

Not if you include it in the Global-config page: "Sort Amps by..."Any chosen method would receive fierce criticism.
Exactly.
It's easy to point to amp types which fit in multiple categories.
Lost of interesting ideas were constructively discussed. Clean-to-dirty, order by type, order by manufacturer, order by amp name, order by date of release (original) etc.
There was no clear winner. Any chosen method would receive fierce criticism.
Like that thought, options to select your own category configuration, makes sense!Not if you include it in the Global-config page: "Sort Amps by..."
