The Open Source Musician Ep. 82 - Tunestorm 16 Reveal and Throwing Down the Open Amp Sim Gauntlet

The Nocember episode was just uploaded for your enjoyment. This month I play the entry for Tunestorm 16 and demonstrate a few of the open source guitar plugins available. Then the gauntlet is thrown down as I issue the Open Amplifier Challenge (aka Tunestorm 17)!

For this next round of uncompetition you must use some of the open source amp sim programs/plugins to try to demostrate great open source tone. If you don't play guitar and don't want to use guitar samples, I'll happily accept synths run through guitarix or similar. But largely I'd like to hear what great guitar (or synth) tones can be made with pure open source software. The due date will be Feb 13, which should give acceptable time after the holidays and allow you to not miss your valentines date too.

Questions and comments welcome, as always.

p.s. some noticed the high freq. buzzing last episode, I've established it is my audio interface. Hopefully you'll find this month's recording a bit better. More work on my mic technique would help too (SNR).

Enjoy!

I was wondering if you changed mics for this one--I think it was the best sounding episode ever.

Thanks as always for making the OSM podcast, I always come away with new things to try after listening. I use Guitarix on everything but have never really explored Rakarrack... time to fix that!
