aaron__aardvark Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I put 2 songs in my music website: "Funky Cat" is the song on top, and "Something Better on the Other Side" is the next song down. One song uses all Roland COSM amp models on guitar, and the other song uses PodXT amp models on guitar. Can you tell which is which? Please tell me how you like the music and how it can be improved.

tarahall Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 As your 2 songs are diverse in their amp sounds & guitar parts, it's difficult to make an objective comparison - different delays, reverbs, modulation, overdrive, etc on your 2 songs make comparing the two amp sounds to my mind somewhat impractical. It would be more interesting to hear the same song with the same parts utilizing the amp models from the 2 different units. I have a little Roland COSM based amp (their Micro Cube) which is handy for doing lounge room style vocal rehearsals however I don't like its "sounds" much but it has its purpose. I'm not a huge fan of their COSM thing although I do have Roland/Boss's COSM based RE-20 Space Echo twin pedal which I use as a live replacement for my original RE-201 Space Echo. It's not quite as groovy as the tape driven model in an FX Loop or AUX Send & Return but at least I don't have to replace tape loops or put up with wow & flutter from worn motor bearings. However I do like some of the amp sounds in the XT and I have used the POD live a few times when touring and backline is provided. But it becomes purely a personal preference in the long run and all players have their own likes and dislikes from guitars, amps & pedals to strings, picks & leads. Ultimately I guess it comes down to whether either unit achieves what you are setting out to create musically for yourself for that track.

aaron__aardvark Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 tarahall, Thank you for listening and replying. OK, here are the answers: "Something Better on the Other Side" uses Roland COSM amp models, and "Funky Cat" uses PodXT amp models for guitar.
