I was just thinking, a great feature to have in the cab section would be a head or human instead of a mic. Let me explain; in the cab block; you mainly select a cab, a mic and a distance. But why not also have the ability to select a person? Meaning; say you had a 4x12 in a room, and you were 8 meters away from the cab; how would it sound if you were in the room? (aka; if it was recorded with a perfect mic?) I think that actually this should have been the default setting for all cabs. How would the amp sound if you were in the room? When you have to select a mic, you're basically removing cab simulation from unit; and you're basically saying, this is how it would sound if it was recorded. I mean it's fine/great to have as a feature, getting the recorded mic+cab tone from albums is great. But, the Go lacks the most basic ability to emulate a guitar cab. It cannot emulate the sound of a cab; of how a plain cab would sound to a human in a room. It can only emulate the sound of a cab if it were recorded with a microphone... And that is to me quite an artificial way to treat cabs. The most basic way to use an amp and a cab is playing them directly, and hearing the sound. The Go lacks this most basic feature. This would simplify tremendously the cab block, and I think might help get some great tones also... Of course room becomes a parameter; are you playing in a garage, bedroom, church, etc., (reverb characteristics) but many reverbs aren't super expensive DSP wise, and if my my old 1994 Digitech RP5 could do such reverbs; don't think the PGO couldn't... Thoughts? Any idea why there isn't such implementation?
