And when you mic a real guitar cab that's often required as well.
That's accuracy...

Indeed with the stated obviousness when miking a cab, except pertaining in regard to the amp modeling itself and not the cab block of the modeler. So in real life instead of low cutting of the miked cab you low cut the frequencies of an amp itself? Hmm, accuracy or precision?...And when you mic a real guitar cab that's often required as well.

You usually do the cut in the Cab block.So in real life instead of low cutting of the miked cab you low cut the frequencies of an amp itself? Hmm, accuracy or precision?...
Sometimes the Captain Obvious response is the correct one.
Never understood what speaker compliance was doing on the tone? How can it affect the lows?
I'm not sure what it is doing in the digital model realm, would have to ask Fractal modeling personnel for an exact answer. Suppose to emulate speaker reactance per literature and reactance is inversely proportional to frequency. It is set to 50% as a stock setting, turning it down appears to take the blanket over speaker sound away that I hear. That was what I was mentioning as characteristic of the Fractal amp modeling due to that stock setting.
Because you seem to be claiming Fractal has some inherent flaw in the amp modeling... Which I don't agree with.Indeed with the stated obviousness when miking a cab, except pertaining in regard to the amp modeling itself and not the cab block of the modeler.

They could be using dummy cabinets on stage with one real miked cab backstage or below it. That helps control the stage volume but maintains the rock and roll look.
Flaw? I never claimed Fractal has an inherent flaw. I quite enjoy Fractal over other modelers. Not sure why you're taking it so personally. Fractal has it's own characteristic sound in it's digital modeling, just as the other manufacturers uniquely have, like Line 6, Boss, Neural DSP, etc...
If Fractal had a "characteristic sound" other than that of the actual amp, that would be considered a flaw because their goal is accuracy.
There is no flaw, the flaw is apparently in your mind taking it personally with such consumer product bias. No amp modeler sounds exactly like actual analog tube amps, they are just that, a modeled digital recreation with a unique "characteristic sound" from the modeling software and hardware close enough to the real deal. Especially with such drastic variances on component tolerances between same physical amplifiers themselves in real life. It's not an opinion.If Fractal had a "characteristic sound" other than that of the actual amp, that would be considered a flaw because their goal is accuracy.
Anyway, I don't need to belabor the point further. You're entitled to your own opinion just as much as I am to mine. They can be different
Quite... Ignored!How comical.
This is something that Fractal has proven, by showing traces of the original unit they're modeling and the model of it they created. They're spot-on. There's no characteristic sound, because they've modeled many different amps and they can be proven to be accurate. I'd like to see any other company do the same.
