From: "Larry Pratt"
Subject: AmpFarm

My band is 'building a CD'. Recently we were re-mixing a group of songs.
The first mix, admitted rough, left a lot be desired, to say the least. I
was having a fit over my "Tone". It was thin, weak, awful, (shall I hit
myself again?) I was prepare to just go back and redo vast parts. But
then, my trusty recording engineer said before you go back and re-do, lets
try this. He pulled up some software called AmpFarm. This program has, (I
don't know how many, at least a dozen), digitized samples of classic tube
amps. '59 Fender Bassman, Vox AC130, a Marshall, and many more. Whoa! what
it did for the amplified "tone" was unbelieveable. This is a seriously cool
piece of software. Now, I know its NOT a substitute for actually, really,
finding the amp tone live. But it sure saved this session (and lotsa $$$).
Any body ever heard of it? It makees me wonder if there is a version that
could be used in a live setting. Imagine being able to switch through 20
different amps on stage.

Regards,

Larry Boy Pratt
