Real names of amps and effects
Posted: Thu Jul 02, 2020 10:21 am
Obviously, the Positive Grid people could have used the real names of emulated amps and pedals, but they would have needed to pay gazillions in royalties to their respective trademark owners. This thread features an overview of all amps and pedals with their real-life counterparts. Some of these effect pedals seem not to be based on actual pedals, rather are more a description of a desired effect (like the reverbs).
I will update this basic post with any info forthcoming. What's mentioned down below is by no means cast in concrete, so feel free to suggest changes if necessary.
