Thnx again for the replies guys.... Ok....So it seems that analog...in most cases...is preferrable to processors............Due to... Choice of tone.... Quality of Tone....Performance in mid gains.... Am I Right??..... PS:An off the beat question....but what is GAS??
^^ Yep, think of a processor as the jack of all trades and king of none(well I do at least). GAS is Gear Acquisition Syndrome.
Of course I cannot deny that the sound of a tube amp being pushed by slight dirt in the overdrive pedal has not been emulated (to a satisfactory levels yet). But on a limited budget, which most ppl are actually, and I would prefer they remain so - unless they really get serious about their playing - processors are a better compromise for gigs and recordings. Besides, if you check out the tone choice of most ppl: its usually \m/ METCHUL \\m// Which is high gain, interspersed with clean tones. Something that a processor can do fine. If someone is after the typical blues or blues/jazz tone - then god save you, because nothing will ever satisfy you! (Perhaps not even the original gear)
