Hey guys, Im trying to throw a studio together and for the most part I'm focusing on drums until I get those down and then moving onto guitars but, until my computer comes I have alot of time to do research and I'm getting alittle ahead of myself.
I have a Marshall 1960 lead cab that I had bought awhile back for my band ( I don't play guitar) but for now I'm stuck recording and doing all my mixing in a single room that's about 20 feet by 18 feet. </3
My first question is, would it be more practical for me to actual buy a decent head (I was thinking maybe a bugera or trying to score a dual recto on ebay for cheap) and try micing the cab or would I be better off buying a good amp Sim like pod farm platinum or Revalver?
Also if I take the sim route, should I go pod farm platinum or revalver? I've searched all around the forums for comparisons of the two but most of threads are old and the links to the sound clips are dead. What I've generally been able to take away is that revalver is better for heavier rhtyms
but pod farm is better on leads/clean stuff/and also can do bass. If anyone could post some more comparisons or at least point me in the direction of more recent threads that would really be appreciated as well.
I also feel I should mention that Joey Sturgis is definitelty one of my biggest influences. I think his mixing skills and the tones he achieves are pretty baller and I know he uses pod but alot of people seem to think revalver is great as well so I just wanted to get some opinions?
Sorry for the long post,
Thanks in advance dudes!!
