I have a 9 month old baby so time is of the essence, when it comes to recording I simply don’t have time to mess around with amps and mics etc. and in my current house it just isn’t possible to record like this anyway.

All this may change soon once we get a new house where I can set up a proper recording studio but I think I will always use modelling software, the Guitar Rig Plexi models just sound so good!

I’ve used a lot of models myself, but once I got my tone with my amps and board, using models just didn’t cut it for me. But that’s just me.

I know what you mean though – it is so convenient. In fact, I use IK Multimedia stuff for recording ideas directly onto my laptop. Then I’ll rework everything in the studio.

To be honest though when I’m recording I can’t fault amp modelling software I’m having so much fun with them at the moment and it means I can switch from a Plexi to an AC30 to a Fender Twin in the flick of a mouse, or chain 2 of them together and split the signal between them each with different cabs multiple mics and different effects. Now that to me has been life changing!
