Gear Review:

Amp Room by SoftTube

Still in beta, straightforward and simple, Vintage Amp Room emulates three great guitar amps in a complete studio set-up with speaker cabinets and fully flexible microphone positioning.

It has none of the added gadgets or weird-sounding presets sometimes found in simulation software. Their goal is not to give you a pre-produced, ultimate guitar sound, but to provide you with the ultimate tool to create your own. It features:

  • Three vintage amp models
  • Flexible & continuous click-and-drag mic positioning
  • Fully automatable parameters
  • Compatible with all effects that work with real amps

It will be available for both PC and Mac on:

  • Digidesign Pro Tools 7.0 or higher, with Pro Tools|HD Accel
  • Digidesign VENUE live system
  • TC Electronic PowerCore (to be released in June 2007)

This company also responsible for the Tubetech CL1B, Brainworx bx digital, Dynatube and Dynatube Bass.


Featured Performance:

    Balance by Leo Badinella

    Real Love by Matthias Frank

The Stupid Knob:

Could it be Keith Richards...again? Yep.


Answer To Last Week's Trivia Question:

Q: Who played the slide guitar on the classic Eric Clapton hit Layla?

A: Duane Allman! Both Slau and Mark Rufino had some valuable follow up to this. They referred to a documentary on Tom Dowd called Tom Dowd: The Language Of Music. It's an absolutely fascinating glimpse into the life of a talented and influential engineer and producer.

One of the interesting things in the movie is where he plays the original multitrack master from the Layla session and he solos Dunae’s slide and the piano. It’s so exciting to hear the raw material out of context. Slau and Mark both say. "If you haven't seen this, run (don't walk) to the store and pick up a copy." Better yet, just click here to get one online!

This week's winner is Jeremy North. Congratulations Jeremy, you're taking home a copy of Guitar and Drum Trainer courtesy of Ryan Smith over at GuitarAndDrumTrainer.com.

Honorable Mention goes out to Randy Gilkey, Slau, Mark Rufino, Shane Ward, Jonathan Diener, Jim Farley, Tom Drake, Joao Alves, Mike Schettler and Rich Palmer. Way to go guys!



See you next week!
