NAM MODELER- DIME HEAD NAM player ...a first, maybe a game changer

  DIME HEAD 
NAM Player

$510.00 USD

NAM or Neural Amp Modelling is a new and free tech that uses a totally different method to capture sounds. It allows you to capture an amp with incredible accuracy & free of hurdles that Kemper and ToneX can not avoid. The problem is with NAM is you can not reshape the sound. Yes like your real amp you can use tone controls. In short you can get what you hear from the amp you captured. Capturing is simple enough and the tech does not need problem solvers to capture the sound just like you hear it in the room. If you are a die hard real tube amp guy you can get a dead on real version of any amp. If you are already a modeler guy you have become accustomed to amp sounds have been hot rodded to sound larger than life times ten. So you may not like it ...even if you have been telling 
yourself that your sounds sound the most realist. 😇
A CHOICE OF ONE 
Users of NAM have had to leave their sounds in their computers 
So until this unit you could not have a conventional floor unit that 
covers expected basic functions with all its practical 
applications, like gigging. The unit includes amp 
models, Reverb and IR's.

CONCLUSION ___ 
As many of you know I do not like or use modelers. I am an agnostic. In short open to being convinced but what I have seen happening with most of the serious pro's they 
have both. They use an amp when it is logically possible and a modeler when it is not. Most of the very best recordings of guitar ever recorded were made on a tube amp. 
Most of them just used the one tube amp the player owned and used. So I do not see 
that I am overwhelming handicapped with a unit like this giving me the very best 
synthesized versions of the amps I love. I do not need a choice of hundreds 
to choose from.Yes it is nice to have endless choice but once chosen the  
remainder have zero use.
