Now Available! Dimebag Darrell CFH Collection for AmpliTube

[carlaz]

I very much doubt that 6 units of three band parametrics were part of Dimebag's signal chain from fingers to amp speaker when he laid down the tracks -- but I would be willing to accept that everything else, from stomps to amp speakers, in the current version of Amplitube is as close "real" as one can get to what he had, using today's technology -- the memories of Dimebag's guitar tech -- and some "reverse engineering" by knowledgeable folks.

Six units of parametric EQ are very likely there to approximate the mixed (and mastered) signal -- which Amplitube could not hope to model for "real", no matter how great the attention to detail.

Now that's it. Thank you!

One more question: what are the differences in routing in each preset of the Dimebag pack? I see that every preset has 8 different routing options, but again, they are not explained in the manual. The users would like to know how are these routings related to the song presets, otherwise it makes not much sense to put them without any explanation.
Can you share this info?

There is no special routing specifically for Dimebag Darrell CFH Collection for AmpliTube as it runs inside AmpliTube and uses its available routing options which should be covered in the manual (and are elaborated graphically in the interface itself).

Edit - Just checked, signal routing is covered in Chapter 3 of the AmpliTube 4 User Manual. If you are having trouble finding your manuals, please refer to the FAQ at https://www.ikmultimedia.com/faq/index.php?id=823

What I am asking is what are those routing options specifically. Different parts of the songs? Does not make much sense. Anyone in the design process of the plugin, who has the real info, can explain what were they used for in the Dimebag CFH recording process?

Each of the presets should be named accordingly as to what song and what part of the song (as applicable) it represents/reproduces from Cowboys From Hell. The routing chosen would be whichever AmpliTube routing setup was best suited to match the tones from the record.

I was not a developer of this plugin but I do have "real info" so please keep your comments civil per the forum rules.

This plugin was not meant to be a "step-by step of the Cowboys From Hell recording session" but does replicate the gear and tone from the album using AmpliTube and the specific gear modeled in close cooperation of the Dimebag Darrell estate. However, I will see if perhaps Grady would be interested in a deeper look and sharing some of the experiences he had working with Dimebag in general and with regard to the tone on this great record.

Excuse me: by "real info" I mean literally specific info of the matter in discussion, not about general amplitube 4 questions. I don't understand your comment.
Returning to the query, there's no names or labelling for the different routings. Where do you say we can find that info?
Thanks.

The routing options in AmpliTube are covered in Chapter 3 of the manual

Will Graddy Champion collaborate with you in the future to also release a Vulgar Amps & Effects version, and maybe a Far Beyond Driven version too? That will definitely Kick A$$ is that's in your future plans.

Will the Dimebag collection work on AmpliTube 3?

Hi, pretty sure the Artist Collections work with Amplitube 3 and 4

[Peter_IK]

Will the Dimebag collection work on AmpliTube 3?

Dimebag Darrell CFH Collection for AmpliTube runs in AmpliTube 4, not 3. Any collections that are released after AmpliTube 4's release will only run on that version as they will rely on the newer sound engine/audio framework.

Thank you! For the quick reply. Time for me to get a new laptop! Lol
