Glad to hear that. Yeah, that also turned out to be the setup I use the most for my cleans. The Warm definitely catches some magic, I think, which I was unable to match in the others . Anyways glad you like it.
I shared the profiles with Scott Buffington from Evans, and he is updating my AH200 with some new updates they have on their new amps. I may profile that as well once I receive the updated amp.

Not sure it helps... I profiled one of my favorite clean amps a few days ago...
Evans AH200 (under author TiltSound). Hopefully I did the amp justice. I think the profile sounds really good, and very very very clean.
Also by the way, i noticed on really clean amps, I have to lower the master volume to like -10 so that I hear it as intended in some FRFR amps. -

Hey guys I did the profiles, but I dont know how to upload to the Rig Exchange Link to one of the profiles
I did a video showing the setup and the sound of the amp. I just dont know how to upload them into the rig exchange.External Content youtu.beContent embedded from external sources will not be displayed without your consent.Through the activation of external content, you agree that personal data may be transferred to third party platforms.

It is necessary to use the townsend. The reason is they use two diaphgrams to capture the back and the front separately. This from what I understand is what allows them to emulate not just the on axis response, but also the entire off axis response of the different mics (since some mics capture a bit beyond just whats in front, and the good ones dont have phase shifting issues). So you could say the behavior of the plugin is therefore calibrated for the specific design of their mic.
This video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGD4H-XkARE&t=1110s shows how it sounds next to some of the original mics, both on axis as well as off axis. The SM57 and u87 sound ridiculously close if not pretty indistinguishable from the real counterparts I have|had (I sold my 87 to get other mics not emulated)
ANYWAYS, the company slate, makes a $200 mic (ML2) which has pretty decent emulations also (a bit brittle, BUT ONLY if you really really compare side by side). I mention it as that one has the advantage that it doesnt need two channels, and it emulates the Royer R121, which is great for guitars.
So in other words you could make a profile with that mic (without the plugin). Then you could record your songs with the profile and would in theory be able to change the mic you used by using the plugin. I am tempted to test that theory hehe, but was hoping I could use the townsend as its a bit more powerful hehe -

So I have a Townsend L22 microphone. Its an emulation mic that allows changing the polar patterns, proximity and microphone type via their free plugin. Its the kemper of microphones to put it simply. The only problem is the microphone requires two channels of audio.
So I was wondering, If I have the kemper start profiling, can I capture and record how the mic responds to the kempersounds? I intend to then using the plugin be able to quickly and quietly make different mic settings, by feeding back the sound, but this time now altered with the mic emulations. I could then also share the capture recording so others could pretty much customize the micing of the amp virtually (since the plugin is free to use after all)
For those curious as to what im talking about here is some details about this Kemper of the microphone world .External Content www.youtube.comContent embedded from external sources will not be displayed without your consent.Through the activation of external content, you agree that personal data may be transferred to third party platforms.

thx... Yeah i did try that with the other mics. The dynamic mics are much heavier on precense (sm57|e906) and worked way better of center. The ribbon's however are already pretty dark, due to their excessive proximity effect, so when I move it where an sm 57 becomes smoother, the ribbon mics end up sounding tooo dark (which i kinda like but its super dark).
Will a kemper profile work fine if I mic further (that could solve for the proximity effect), but just am not sure if that will make the profile loose dynamic detail? I get afraid, of the room affecting the profile if I mic further, but maybe thats ok?
Anyways will keep that in mind, thx guys for the help
I should have the profiles tomorrow or tuesday up -
Im using various mics... That specific tone (which sounds the closest to the sound in the room when played via FRFR) is through a Rode NTR ribbon mic. That being said, I'll keep in mind when making the profiles.
The other mics I have thought of using are
-Townsend L22
-Rode TF5
-Rode NTR (the one recording the above clip)
-Royer r121 (similar low end to above but more mid presence and a bit darker)
-Senn e906
-Shure SM57
Anyways , the placement right now in the clip was about 1.5" off of the center of the speaker at a 4" or so distance from grill. (Does removing grill make a good difference?) -

Hey guys, so I am trying to profile one of my favorite clean amps, and so far been following an approach that makes my barefaced cabinet and other FRFR cabinets respond super close to the real amp in the room.
THIS IS A CLIP OF WHAT THE PROFILE WOULD BE LIKE.

What do you guys think? Hope you guys like it, and if so I can share the profiles once im done.
Also any ideas or suggestions? I can make other profiles of the same amp if you guys like it. I want to try various mic techniques to get a variety of sounds from the real amp. The above however is the sound I use that sounds like the real amp when played via the FRFR cabinet.
