Parameter Elimination

[jimfist]

If ditching these parameters meant we gained something tangible as a replacement - depending on what that would be - I'd be fine losing some of these parameters.

 

[R.D.]

Dynamics
Pick Attack
Thunk
Character
Character Freq
Dyn Depth
Amp Voicing

I'd be willing to "TRADE" them for a VARIAC control !!!!

I love thunk! I use it to an extreme to screw up my sound in a really cool way. Pick attack is something I use frequently to "percuss" a clean sound...it really makes a part pop out of a track. And, when doing client work in the studio, Amp Voicing can be a quick and easy fix. This is not a complaint, but when working with others in a studio setting the granularity and sheer number of options in any given amp can be a bit overwhelming and time-consuming, especially since I haven't collected enough "go-to" rigs yet. So I definitely appreciate the broad-stroke parameters.

I wonder how many of these Cliff already disabled when he had the 12.04 low-end ephiphany.....

 

[SeeD]

I dont use them.. but it`s nice to use the Pick Parameter.. sometimes

 

[AkakorMo]

Okay, they all stay. It was worth a shot.

Thanks Cliff, seriously the best customer service around. I appreciate being able to add my 2 cents and have it heard. If it makes your life more difficult I don't NEED them but why get rid of a good thing?!

 

[AlGrenadine]

Okay, so everything but Amp Voicing is being used (so far).

That's my case.

 

[aziz]

The character is a very powerful control, I like it. I can't replicate with eq.

 

[REDD]

Rock the boat why don't you!

 

[scorch]

I use quite a few, especially Dynamics and Thunk.

Me thinks me Marshalls would suffer without.

 

[Yzaviv]

pick attack very useful for me

 

[jparkes57]

Please keep Character & Character Frequency

 

[Tator]

I'm a little late to the party, but here's input... I use them and would like them to stay around. Moving them into a new sub menu like some have mentioned here might be the best way to please everyone. Thanks for asking.

 

[Trainwreck1446]

I am all for leaving pick attack in there, the rest can go.

 

[barhrecords]

What about:

1. One at a time, disable a parameter in the firmware but leave it in the front panel interface and AE.
2. Continue slowly disabling them, one or two per firmware release.
3. A year after all have been disabled, repost this thread, but reveal said parameters really have done nothing for a year.

So it would go more like this: "Hey, parameters 1,2,3,4,5... have been disabled in the firmware for over year, time to cleanup the UI..."

I just started messing with Character and Character Freq a week or two back (along with Definition) and have been loving them on a couple of amps that were close but 100% there for me. I would definitely want to understand what to tweak *instead* to get similar results if they went away. I've saved a couple of modded amp blocks based on just those params.

 

[brianv4]

get rid of them, no need.

 

[Brick_top]

I don't use these

You might consider burying these options further into the menu system if the thought process is to possibly make the editing a bit less intimidating to a new user.

I'd love an EASY "skin" in Axe-Edit.

 

[yek]

I don't use any of the mentioned parameters.
