Re: Free VST Amp/Speaker Simulators for Jazz?



I'll check it out, Per. Anything that references an actual amp that is a 
jazz standard is good. What bugs me is when I use these amp simulators and 
they appears to be designed for "rockers", showing big 4X12 speakers for 
visuals, etc. I'd die for a "jazz guitarist" plugin that offered tone 
simulations of the most popuar and classic jazz amps: A few original 
silver 
face Polytone, Roland Jazz Chorus, Fender Twin, Mesa Boogie Mark I, and a 
few others.
