I’ve been learning for the past 6 months or so, but I’ve only really played using Neural DSP and nothing else. I have no idea how to adjust amp/effect settings to make a good tone, with either analogue or simulated equipment, so I mostly just use the presets. I usually am playing through Archtypes Cory Wong, Plini, or Gojira. I’ve searched for tutorials but usually they just explain what every knob/setting does, they don’t really explain how to make it sound good lol. Any points in the right direction would be much appreciated =)

    I’d also like to add that maybe the Tone pack/plugin/program just isn’t going to give what you want. I was all about BiasFX for years because it was easy to use, but to really get the tone I wanted I just had to double track essentially and have the program opened twice. Before I tried every setting and making sure I didn’t accidentally have the output in stereo but everything was there. This is where the Cab IRs everyone mentions might have come in handy.

    But the I started using Line 6 Metallurgy plugins and man. I’ve never heard a plugin sound so close to a analog fuzzy orange Doom tone. Shop around and take advantage of free trials.
