I understand you can go straight from guitar to DAW and it offers full amp and mic’d cabinet simulation. But what if you have a particular guitar preamp (rackmount or pedal) that you like? What’s the best way to use EZmix in that situation? Can the cabinet IRs be used without the amp models? If so, how do they compare to Recabinet or Redwirez, etc? Since it’s a mixing program, does it have professional mixing mojo built in to the cabinet IRs or at least the full amp/cab models? (I’m a total n00b. Hope that even makes sense.)
Hi,
EZmix presets do not offer a way to switch on or off separate elements, you have controls for more or less of some of the currently active parts in a preset. So if you find a preset that you like but you want to switch off the Amp, that does not work. Since EZmix is low on resources, there’s no problem using several instances in tandem to get a particular sound if one single preset doesn’t.
EZmix can definitely be used to make professional sounding mixes.

Thanked by: Ted HetfieldAre you saying that there’s no such thing as an individual effect unless there’s a preset comprising only that effect? So if I want to use the “overloud” effect, I’d have to select a preset that has it?
Which effects or presets are designed for guitar tracks recorded from a preamp with cab impulses (or an actual amp and mic’d cab) for a bigger, fuller sound?

Yes, more or less.

There’s the ‘Amp’ Preset Pack, of course but there are some in several packs. I can only recommend listening to the demos and ask existing users here about their opinion and experience. Hopefully someone chimes in here.
