    What he's saying is that if you have your delay assigned to the tempo and you change the speed of the delay, the speed of modulation effects will also change with the tap tempo. When you set the phaser speed, you may not want it to change if you change the speed of the tempo in order to change the speed of a delay for example when you tap...

    The profiler has proved itself at copying almost to a tee the original amp. Here's a great example of just how close it gets...

    I love using Bert Meulendijk's Friedman profiles for some juicy GnR. Stick a treble boost in front and you have Sweet Child O'Mine tone all over...
    Even my 335 with Classic 57s sound just the ticket with these profiles..

    I bought the Acey 30 pack a few months ago because I have always liked the sound of a AC30 but never had the privilege to play through one. Along came the profiler and one of the things I had to check off the bucket list of amps was to get a AC30 pack as soon as possible. I came across Matt's page on here and went and listened to the samples of the Acey 30 pack and I was sold. I immediately bought it and started to play...

    The pack comes with 42 profiles, 6 of which are DI for those with their own cab. I don't have a cab so I was more interested in the studio profiles.
    Matt has profiled the AC30 both in normal and top boost channels through various gain stages from clean to raging full on crunch. He gives you not only the traditional Alnico Blues that the Vox normally comes with (my favourite of the pack) but he also gives you Creambacks, V30s, Classic Lead 80s, Lynchbacks and Greenbacks cabs too. This should cover all manner of genres from the U2 cleans to Queen rock with a treble boost in the front end.

    My go to profile is the "Acey30 + AL". All gain and no pain from the Top Boost channel driven hard. I stick the profiler's treble boost in front and with my 335 I get as close to the Queen sound for me to be happy. It's crunchy and saturated and keeps you coming back for more...

    Great job with these profiles Matt!

    From what I know of the tech used in the profiler, the code base wouldn't translate nearly as well or as efficiently into the software vst realm as it does on the hardware unit due to the nature of the specialised DSP used. The code is low level enough to exploit hardware features of the DSP that would cost many times the power in software to emulate on a general purpose cpu. The Motorola 56K is a specialised DSP specifically designed for audio processing so unless they can get the software version of the profiler's OS to operate as well as it does on the 56K then I don't see it happening.

    There has been a marked shift in performance in computers since the fourth gen Intel chips were released a few years ago. They make using these machines effortless. I can honestly say that I do not think I have even seen the hourglass cursor the entire time I have owned this Windows 10 Intel I7 laptop. I am sure if you have a 28 core 56 thread ninth gen Xeon chip then I highly doubt you would need another for a decade at least. It's good to be alive if you can afford it hahaha!

    One of the key features of the profiler is that the cpu is passively cooled. That means there are no fans inside the casing to make noise. When you reduce the thermal envelope that low, you are severely restricted in what cpu grunt you choose to add to a new system. I very much doubt they will change this anytime soon unless they find a suitable cpu that can run without a fan and offer twice the power..
