hi guys, i almost bought something expensive (amplitude fender) and then i found, that you can hook amps together in podfarm. if you combine the little marshall and a clean fender you have something good, also the overdriven little tweed and a clean fender. just wanted to share this, in case someone is a bit frustrated with the sounds of podfarm. that doubling opens a lot of windows! for free.:wink:

I do something similar with my Pod XT Live. It will let me play with two amp sims/effects chains at once. More importantly, it will let me record with those two setups in one stereo track or two individual tracks, while simultaneously recording a clean track with nothing but the raw guitar signal that I can later reamp to my heart's content with the Gearbox plug-in.

You're right, doubling up amps in PodFarm is great, opens up lots of possibilities. Same for recording, I tried this out a few weeks ago.

As for Amplitube, I love it and find the sounds a step up from PodFarm. Got 3 products for the price of one (latest promotion). I really love the Fender amplifiers, so much that I now want to go out and buy the real thing. Amplitube gives you even more options with configuration the sound path.

Podfarm is good too, but I find that it takes me quite a while to find a really good sound, and I often spend a whole evening finding sounds and experimenting instead of practicing.

amen brother. but i just canīt tell myself, that it is worth to spend that much money on recording gear. we sell very, very small amounts of cds, after our gigs.

Quick question. How do you do that? Do you open the 'double' window and do it that way?

in the upper line of the window is a buttoon called DUAL. click on that thing and you can mix amps till you get crazy in the head. have fun!

I got it, thanks. I've had PF since March and love it. Started playing 9 months ago and PF sure does make the mundane tasks of scales etc. more enjoyable. Do you have any of the upgrades? I'm wondering about them but I figure you can get almost any sound you want just tweaking whats already there.

Thanks again!
