NEW! The long-awaited Digital & Modelling section

What's Hot
We should probably have done this a while ago, but thanks to a reminder from @Fiftyshadesofjay we've finally done it.

In terms of what goes in here, there's obviously going to be a lot of overlap with Amps and FX. As a general guideline, if it's something to do with the digital part of an amp, or it's a modelling pedal, it goes in Digital & Modelling. Obviously if you're posting about a Helix, AxeFX, Kemper or Quad Cortex...yep, this is the place. We've moved a bunch of threads in here to give a general flavour of what belongs, just to lend a bit of a helping hand.

I suspect there's going to be a fair bit of suck-it-and-see with this, but let's just see how it goes. Have at it!

    Good idea. It's definitely a mainstream enough part of modern guitar playing to warrant its own section.

    Let us know if you think there’s something which hasn’t been moved, and vice versa.

    Genuinely exciting and pleased the admins have acknowledged feedback proactively. As you say could have been done a while back but might have been 'niche', but now it's very much mainstream I think it's the right move. 

    Will be some nuance needed in how some stuff is discussed (Fender Tonemasters and Strymon fx and similar will crossover a lot I guess) but we'll muddle through!

    I still have the same objections to it, but there are a lot more worthwhile modelling products out there now; it didn't make sense then, but it makes marginally more sense today.

    And...there's still the option of reversing the change if it turns out to be ridiculous ;)

    I think this when I see the word "modelling"

    The question about a Kemper profile for Doug & Pat's 1965 VOX AC10 belongs in this new section.
    Be seeing you.

    Dunno, think it was timely 10 years ago when first requested but now I think it would be more appropriate to create a new section called "legacy amps" for the glowing bottles.

  • Is it best to buy a modeller or an amp? Or a combination of both,eg do amps have modelling qualities?

    Yes, and maybe. 

    Hope that helps.
