So I think I had the H1N1 virus but it wasn’t so bad after all, with everyone clamouring to get their shots in Calgary, Im not really to sure weather they have been tested long enough, with the vaccine supposedly containing mercury and saline, how safe can they be right! Anyway since the Calgary Flames got their H1N1 shots they won two games in a row so go figure!

Well The winter here in Calgary has been kind of harsh, but looks like the worst is over, and spring is just around the horizon. I’ve added some interesting stuff to my site at Greg’s World including some more jokes, my review of the Zoom G1 Guitar effects processor, and some other Cool stuff, so please visit the site soon!

AMPLITUBE

Well I have been trying out Amplitube2 the Guitar Amp, and FX modeling plugin from IK Multimedia, actually I have
been having a blast with this emulation software. Amplitube is by no means a repalcement for a real guitar amp, but I am
surprised how good it sounds considering that the sound is coming out of regular PC speakers. It actually sounds like a real
tube amp when the volume and gain are turned up, I could almost swear my computer had some 6L6 tubes inside of it
because it sounds so realistic. The plugin is also present in my Guitar Tracks Pro software so I can add amplitube effects
in post processing, or have amplitube running in real time. Their are alot of effects as well including reverb, digital delay,
digital flangers, wah, tube compressor, eq etc. If that aint enough you can choose between various amplifier types such
as Modern Tube Lead, American Tube Vintage, Tube Vintage, British Tube and choose between various amp types such
as 50w 6L6 or 100w EL34 or even solid state amps. Okay this is getting kinda crazy but you can also choose your cab setup
changing speaker configurations, and the mic model, so you could have 4×10 open vintage with a condensor mic, or you
could emulate 4×10 closed modern with a dynamic mic. So is amplitube a replacement for a real amplifier, obviously not
unless you want to drag your computer around to gigs, and that would be pretty ridiculous, for me amplitube is a great
practice amp especially since I live in a condo and I can’t turn my 5150 up to load or I will incur the wrath of my neighbors.
Amplitube is great software for anyone who can’t afford a real amp, or who needs a practice amp, or someone who just wants
to mess around with different sound configurations before running out to a music store and paying big bucks only to find that
they bought something that wasn’t right for them. It’s also a great effects plugin for recording sofware as well.


BACK

gregback1.jpgWelcome to Gregs Page,

Hi everyone! I am a guitarist songwriter, and I have just completed putting some of my work on a CD entitled ULTRA GUITAR. I will be sending some off to radio stations mostly College, and University in the hopes of getting some airplay. Also I will be selling some locally, and providing some mp3s off of my website. My music is quite varied as I play both Acoustic, and Electric Guitar. My influences include Rock, Blues, Folk, Jazz, R&B, and even some Classical stuff. Check out the mp3 link for a sampling of some of my music at
