5. AMP/SPEAKER SIMULATION
5.2 Speaker descriptions
The sound of any guitar combo depends largely on the type
and combination of speakers used. In the past 50 years there
has been widespread experimentation to find out what type of
speaker is best suited to any one specific guitar sound and in
what way the sound is modified when a certain speaker is
combined with others.
+ When you select an amp simulation, an appropriate
speaker simulation is activated automatically (see
tab. 5.2). Otherwise, the authenticity of the sound
could be affected by an unsuitable cabinet
especially if you are using headphones. Naturally,
you can combine the amp simulations with other
cabinets according to taste.
The character of a loudspeaker is a combination of its power
rating, impedance, sound pressure and size, as well as the
material it is made of. 8", 10" and 12" speakers have established
themselves as the best sizes for electric guitar amplification.
