View attachment 49055 Not to unduly promote a competitor, but just yesterday, Universal Audio released their Pete Thorn (jeez, that dood gets around) PT-100
sim, and I was checking it out just now when I saw this post...it sounds really good in my initial noodling...but I do have it set up using my III preFX.....
To be totally honest, and judging from clips alone, I'm not that impressed with the PT100 plugin. Everything sounds a little too saturated and quite "flat" (no depth, not 3D). Maybe it sounds better when you're actually playing it.
I agree ... ! But I follow Pete on almost every social media platform and he's mentioned quite a few times that he's pretty impressed w/ the "feel" of the plug-in too. Based on that .., I kinda figured that YouTube's compression is messing with the quality of the tone ?
I really admire Pete, but his name is on it, I Don't know that he'd say too much negative about it.I agree ... !

..., and changing the tone stack to Plexi ( or 800 ), change the tone stack frequency center and couple other tweaks ....
I like around 700K. But, you can adjust based on the guitar and IR your using. Tweak the preamp Hi cut above the stock setting and negative feedback as well.I'd be curious to know what frequency center you're using ?
And the 'other tweaks' that you speak of too ?
