Yes - I do find Mikko really expensive at 60$ Canadian for a pack. I'll generally not buy any unless they are at a good discount and I don't use that many variations (vox, marshall,mesa). The convenience is great being able to dial in an IR graphically and not having to audition file by file + the quality is good. I just worry about the plugin being decomissioned somehow and taking my purchased IRs with it. For the high price of a Mikko pack I think ML should provide the underlying IR file library as a backup.
I made some new friends at a local show when a guy complemented me on my Fractal shirt. That's specifically why I keep buying them...to make more guitar nerd friends.
It's a 24 monitor that I use with my Lenovo thinkbook and yes, with a mouse (trackball)
Mikko player ? You don’t use axe cabs so? Don’t know this product
Maybe the real Axe FX was the friends we made along the way!
The Axe Cabs are excellent, however, there are not many mixed stock IRs - they are mostly single mic IRs. I like my cab block to have two 121/57 mix IRs (and sometimes with additional mics mixed in) hard panned L/R (to accommodate full stereo routing into the Cab block). This could be accommodated with stock IRs by using 4 cab slots (57 and 121 IRs mixed with level controls + panned hard left , and separate 57 and 121 IRs mixed with level controls + panned hard right), however, this takes up more CPU so I prefer pre-mixing 3rd party ones to minimize mixing in real time in the Cab block. Mikko also offers the graphical IR selection which is unique to his offering (pick a cab and mic(s) and place them graphically while listening - when your hear what you like, hit the button to generate the IR (I dislike auditioning IRs file by file)).
