Then you should follow your dreams.I see the appeal in these solutions, but in my scenario I must say that a real cab (at least when it comes to guitar cabs) is still better to my ears.I’ll come right out and say that I think that unless you have a really good treated room and mics, you’re going to get a better quality of sound using IRs, straight across the board, guitar and bass. Ownhammer and Yorke seem to be the best to my ears. I no longer even bother with guitar amps at all. A good Tonex capture or Amplitube emulation beats a tube amp head into a load box, IMO.
The amp simulations I have played don't feel anything like my amps, but that is a different subject.
To be clear, I believe that you can make excellent music, that I'd like the sound of, with these alternatives. My personal preference, however, are real cabs (for guitars at least).
