Best modeller for this 6505 sound ?

[ScootBaloo]

Hi,
I was hoping I could get an amp sim capable person to reproduce this 6505 tone and tell me roughly how they did it.

It is me playing guitar so the quality is a bit rough, sorry about that.
Also I posted wav files but they are really short.

The signal chain was :
guitar -> 6505 -> Mesa2x12 -> SM57.

- mic was off centre but perpendicular to the cloth.
- I used EQ in the loop.
- No post EQ.

The DI 's :

The reamped tone :

Thanks, I appreciate any help.

id go as far as to say X50 is VERY good, but im vegetarian.......

Thanks, I suspected the answer might be X50.

Anyone prepared to match the tone and post a mp3 ?

x50 just pimp slapped all sims preceding it.

TSE X-50, definitely.

Granted, I wouldn't consider myself to be even remotely good at recording/mixing, all that fun shit, but this was a quick diddy I wrote to give the X50 a whirl.

So again, any discrepancies you have with the tone are probably because I don't really know what I'm doing, lol.

I still like Revalver better. That's just me though.

SoloC is underestimated. IMO.

Revalver can sound GREAT and so can surely X50, I haven't messed a lot with it yet though.

That's because it's made in Norway, Tromsø

 

[ScootBaloo]

I am a little bit appalled at the dietary habits of Norwegians but they do make good amp sims.

Thanks for the people that posted clips. I am leaning towards X50 myself.

Note to P-E : Your stuff is massive but you are definately going in a different loudness direction to me. I dont maximise my mixes , I just blend the instruments together and that is all.

Jesus Christ, is that all DI/plugin guitars? That unholy. A bit bonkers on the loudness factors but still, holy shit.

 

[P-E]

Yeah it is.

I did push it a bit too loud, I usually master a bit quieter.

edit: If you like the music, check the band out, they're called Slice The Cake and 2 of the 3 members are from the forum. The original mix had a real amp but I got my friend Jonas to send me the tracks so I could have a knack at mixing it, I ended up doing a vocal cover.

100% agreed. It´s my go-to ampsim for monitoring and tracking DIs, it´s super easy to get sounding great, it already gets me killertones all in noon with the fullstack version
