Hard Rock Rhythm Sound - any suggestions?

Ralle57 · Jan 13th 2015

Hi there, I'm looking for a very saturated and compressed hard rock rhythm sound. The one in this Youtube-clip (see 0:07 to 0:22 and 1:51 to 2.28), nails it almost perfectly for me:

I'd be very grateful for some suggestions regarding commercial profiles (I haven't found a profile that suits my need in the rig exchange section yet).

(I am well aware of the fact that such a fat sound does not sit well in the mix, but I need it for a section in my song where there is only rhythm guitar riffing.)

Thanks in advance and best regards

Ralf

Hi Ralf

you might wanna try the 5150 from TAF in bundle 2, you can buy the profiles separately for around £4.99, if you want something free the Lasse Rig pack which is free from the kemper site mostly metal stuff but I'm sure there are 1 or 2 rock sounds in there IIRC. also on there, there are free rig packs from TAF which I'm certain will contain profiles of the 5150, but they are not the same as the ones you buy.

PS I forgot the new Lil River that TAF has just released is a really killer amp, I've been playing with it for a week now and it's very surprising what it can do. It's good for that kind of 80' rock

i know the RE is full of profiles and sometimes it's hard to find what you really want. There are some gems in there you just have to track them down. People like Djemass have put up some great profiles to use.

hope I've helped a little

Greetings Ralf,

the description says, it´s a 5150III.
In the RE are some from Deadlight Studio, James Stephenson and Fluff. These are some good profiles. So go ahead and try them.
If you can´t find what you´re looking for in the free section you have to search for a comercial one. Like Raoul stated.

If you want a flavour of the TAF 5150 sound, there's a bundled profile with the Kemper called TAF Van Halen, try that out. I tested it quite extensively and liked it a lot. There are a lot of profiles on the Rig Exchange though, so make sure you have rig manager booted up, do a search for 5150 and demo away.
