PodXT "Big Bottom" preset: Made With VSTs

[Javi Perera]

Hi everybody!

I have a doubt that poisons me. More than doubt, curiosity. Due to the great quantity of available effects on the market, free or bought, and the proliferation from the liking to the "djent" genre, I do a question myself which many of you will have been made for sure .


Would it be possible to make an exact (or almost-exact) Line6 "Big Bottom" sound's copy using VST effects exclusively?

I guess I'm confused - you mean getting the sound of the Line6 "Big Bottom" preset from I'm guessing a POD product just using a VST? Couln't this be accomplished with PODFarm platinum VST which already contains the "Big Bottom" amp.

search for what equipment it emulates, and try with the vsts that emulates those equips...

It's a Line 6 original, but it's probably closer to a Mesa Recto than anything else.

But yeah, look into POD Farm.

"Optional iLok required !"

I like how they phrase that It's optional... yet required.

I referred myself to get it with any VST chain but the PodFarm. For example, using X30 plus TS Screamer, etc etc...

Is this minimally possible or am I wasting my time trying to believe it is?

EDITED: Well, maybe I haven't expressed myself correctly, but when I said the "Big Bottom" preset, I was referring, for example, the one Bulb uploaded at sevenstrings.com. That kind of sound, you know...

I don't get this. POD's are made to emulate real amps - so are plugins. Why would you want to emulate an emulation??

No, no, I'm not referring about that. I mean... what VST ampsim is simillar of the POD's ampsim, what IR cab is simillar of the POD's cab, etc...

this probably wont be much help but I remember a long time a go finding some kind of program that had all the pod cabinet models in it

 

[Uladyne]

Why are you opposed to using podfarm? Then you could have the EXACT preset. Nothing else would get you closer.

Bulb make djent tones out of different hardware (POD, Engl, AxeFX, etc) so I guess it´s totally possible to achieve it using free VSTs, altough it has much to do with the playing style/technique.

Big Bottom is really fat sounding, don't think you can do this with stock free amp sim. just gave the good old bg bottom a try: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/314510/faehaet.mp3

honestly , I use the big bottom almost always and it can't be emulated (except possibly with curve eq, but even then you couldnt emulate it dynamically) please, spare yourself undue hassle and buy a Pod X3 and get Podfarm, simple.
