Hey folks,
I am now the proud owner of a
JangleBox pedal! It sounds just as awesome as was expected. I decided to save money and get the silver JangleBox as well. I also got an Electro-Harmonix
Micro POG for quick conversion of any guitar into a 12-string so that playing Byrds style inspirations are just a couple of foot switches away.
I have actually invested in quite a few pedals of late since I decided I wanted to set up a nice analog pedal board. Another favorite new addition is the Electro Harmonix
Wiggler.
I think the tone and the tubes can speak for themselves:

I'm just loving the analog effects and I am now resolved to record guitar tracks as close as possible to their intended tone, versus trying to doctor them digitally inside the box. But having said that, I still want to have the best tools for further enhancing my guitar and bass tracks within DP.
I posed this question in another thread, but I will put in this thread as well since not everyone may be following the other thread...
Softube just announced a $50 discount on all their
Vintage Amp Room products, including the bundle (which includes all 3 of them for $249 until July 17th). I am just curious to know what those of you who have tried Vintage Amp Room think of the product as compared to some of the other guitar amp/cab emulation products out there? I have always thought their demos sounded really good. Do you think this is a must-have product?

As I stated above, I am trying to print my guitar tracks with as close to final treatment as possible, but I think sometimes a little extra umph can turn something good into something exception. Amplitube has been such a resource hog that I have put it aside until we get the 64-bit DP. But if Softube can do it better, I wouldn't hesitate to add their Amp products to my collection. It is certainly simpler than dealing with all of the different components of Amplitube, and I could use a little less overwhelm when it comes to making tonal decisions.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
I am thinking about the getting the Amp Room bundle for the addition of the
Bass Amp Room. DP8 is supposed to have a new Bass cabinet emulation plugin included, but as a buddy pointed out earlier today, it is unlikely that it will sound as good as the Softube product.
