I’m quite confused as to why the Kemper sounds so bad? It doesn’t normally. Worth watching this video, for a thorough test of it vs the QC. ua-cam.com/video/bZFP3zzyUxw/v-deo.html
I'm with you on this. I've been very impressed with tonex. I've had one for more than a year now and a qc for little over 2 years. Owned a kemper stage for a week. I was able to tell which captures where which modeler surprisingly. Good video
Great video, I noticed to my ears , all the raw amps, sounds as though they are going through a compresser, where the attack is high, compressing the first transient, Or it’s the mic compressing. Do you not hear this?
Amazing the tonex sounds the closest out of these 3, wonder if the headrush prime can keep up with the tonex on this one. Debating selling mine after having gotten a tonex.
My experience is that none of the modellers sound as good as a good capture of a great amp/cab. It needs to be really well captured though. No idea why the capture sounds so much better, as it’s all digital?
@@aphekrecordingstudio4274 forgot to say that when you had the Dora in front, the QC sounded very close to Tonex. Maybe this is something to experiment more on the next video 😊
Had QC for one year, same for ToneX. Crazy how ToneX just crush the QC capture tech! Two questions : do you use advanced mode? What is your input level on the ToneX pedal? Thanks
@@aphekrecordingstudio4274 i Little advice is to adjust the input trim on the pedal when it comes to more gainy amps :) Will you make more gainy comparisons like this? Thanks :)
Kemper still sounds good. You obviously notice it isn’t exactly the same, in a test like this. If it was a question of which one do you like the sound of, the results might be different.
Nice. The real amps win for me. The point where I've noticed a real difference in the past is in mixing. I feel I have to turn modeller amps up too loud to get the 'push' cause they lack it. Any chance of you doing a comparison of real cabs to Impulse Responses?
Interesting, yea the kemper was the loser here. I have a kemper and really enjoy it for my purposes. I play at home at bedroom volume and like the sound of a cranked Marshall, and I have profiles for for Kemper that really work nicely. I use the kemper kab or just plug into my Yamaha THR10 desktop amp on flat more, which is kind of like studio monitors but better in my opinion (I have a non powered kemper). It’s good to know that the Tonex has so much potential and is not that expensive. Good stuff.
@@aphekrecordingstudio4274 remember to adjust reamp sens or something like that. There are several settings that have to be tweaked for reamping purposes

WOW! thank you once more for your dedication and your accuracy!
Thanks for noticing. Trying very hard to keep these factual and honest. Too much misinformation around.
Really interesting comparison, what a surprise that the differences are so marked.
I LOVE my Tonex! Just continues to inspire me to play more, which is what it’s all about!
Great video. Looking forward to you creating one while playing live.

You are right Greg.. This did change my life. I thought the real amp won and the ToneX was 2nd and the Quad Cortex 3rd.
I agree. ToneX is very close to the real amp. Very impressive. Quad Cortex was just a little lifeless, in comparison.
Are you releasing any of these captures out in the wild soon? Other than the AC captures you released a couple years back?
Yes. Should be in the next 2-3 weeks. Been a whole series of setbacks, but very close. Thanks.
@@aphekrecordingstudio4274 looking forward to it mate. Loved the captures you did on the Quad Cortex specifically
Initial Captures out now.

Or it’s the mic compressing.
Do you not hear this?
I think that might be UA-cam. There definitely isn’t any compression, other than whatever the amps add.

I knew #3 was Tonex, was surprised that QC sounded little weak
That's been my observation of the QC. Usually things the sound slightly and cleans it up.

I just plugged into the input on the TX pedals. Didn’t change anything there. Yes, the ToneX is phenomenally accurate.

Today..but these are computers, tomorrow QC increases parameters and capture time to half hour and...
...or nor
ToneX sounds really close. Kemper sounded least like the amp. I use a Kemper!
Kemper still sounds good. You obviously notice it isn’t exactly the same, in a test like this. If it was a question of which one do you like the sound of, the results might be different.

Yes, you can’t beat the real thing. Like all emulations, it all adds up too.

@@aphekrecordingstudio4274 oh missed that one!
I preferred #2 for most cases...sounded the closest to my ears.. Just lacks a bit of gain at times.
Hard to believe kemper sounded so off on the first amps.
I know. I’m doing a follow up, as there was clearly something wrong.

I'm just testing the Kemper again, as it's never sounded that bad before. I think there is an issue with using it to reamp.
