some of the thread comments mention intellectual property, copyrights, piracy, morals etc
I am ok with that, no problems at all even though it is a grey area
Lets look at the units in question, that i personally own, all registered in my name, so i presume for my own use and enjoyment and to be used as the hardware functions were intended for. I am leaving out the torpedo just in case i get another whipping but it still applies
I own a Kemper, happy with it, the purpose of this unit is "profiling", on rig exchange you will find thousands of profiles, amps,preamps and wait for it....... software amp sims and even tone matches of famous artists, that seems ok in the kemper camp. The other extraordinary feature of the kemper is it can handle 3rd party IR's, you have to use special software called CabMaker free to download from the manufacturers site, now here we go with this, you can open any WAV format IR and load into the Cabmaker which then converts into proprietary Kemper format to be imported into the Hardware, thats the only way to get any IR into its memory, so is that any different to what i have done
I own a AxeII, love it to bits, spanks the kemper but thats just IMO. many firmwares ago tone matching and IR capturing facilities were born, so i understand now that its ok to Capture a real life Cab with a real life Mic, but my concern is tone matching, audio is passed through the unit and analysed and converted into fractals SYX format. that's exactly what i have done.
I am not ranting here but can all the forum members that mentioned comments as regards to intellectual property, copyrights, piracy, morals etc. Have any of you used the tone match facility in the AXEII? that is streamed some other artists work into the hardware and tone matched into a proprietary format?
If so then your comments apply to your approach aswell
