!!! IMPORTANT: CAPTURES ARE CALIBRATED FOR +18.1 dBu !!!
!!! USE THE NAM PLAYER AUTOMATIC CALIBRATION FOR CORRECT GAIN !!!
!!! COMPLEX CAPTURES ARE STILL IN TRAINING, ONLY STD/XREV CAPTURES ARE AVAILABLE FOR NOW. ONCE TRAINING IS FINISHED IN ABOUT A MONTH, YOU WILL RECEIVE THE FULL PACK !!!
This is only a teaser pack, buy the full pack with 171 unique captures at:

This capture set is based on a Trainwreck Express Ceriatone clone 50W EL34 amplifier with fresh F+T filter capacitors and three NOS preamp tubes.
With 171 unique captures, this pack offers many different EQ, bright switch and master volume combinations. All the tones were dialed in using an Edwards Les Paul clone with the WCR Greene/Moore PAF style set. Guitars with higher output pickups may sound too compressed and gainy with this set. This amp has a fairly early poweramp breakup with quite a bit of gain on tap and the gain level is meant to be adjusted by your guitar's volume control.
My capture sets are made with the utmost attention to detail and very high quality outboard gear (Neumann MT48 audio interface, Vovox cables, Suhr/St. Rock/UA OX reactive loads, Lehle P-Split III reamp box, serviced amps etc.).
The main selling points of my capture packs are:
- Very low aliasing due to a much longer training signal
- Very high quality captures with extra accuracy in the case of complex captures
- All captures are calibrated, no guesswork involved
There are also three types of captures in this set:
- Standard denoted with an "S" suffix
- ReverseXStandard denoted with an "XR" suffix (more accurate, similar CPU hit as Standard)
- Complex denoted with a "C" suffix (highest accuracy, highest CPU hit)
If your computer can handle it, go for the complex captures, otherwise XR is a reasonable alternative to the standard architecture.
Regarding the nomenclature of the captures: Each capture starts with the volume setting, followed by an EQ description and then the presence setting.
Lower gain captures are also low in volume, due to their dynamic nature, don't be afraid to turn up the output volume to compensate for it.
Signal Chain: Neumann MT48 Line Output -> Lehle P-Split III Reamp Box -> Trainwreck Express Clone -> Suhr Reactive Load -> Neumann MT48 Line Input
Signal Chain Calibration: +18.1 dBu (Calibration Metadata Included)
*** IMPORTANT CALIBRATION INFORMATION ***
If you're using the newest NAM player VST, just enable the automatic gain calibration and enter your max input gain number into the little "cablirate input" window. if you want to do it manually, follow this quick guide:
- Find your audio interface's max input gain for your Hi-Z input in the manual or online
- If your max input gain number is lower than +18.1, then decrease the input gain by the difference between your max input gain and +18.1.
- If your max input gain number is higher than +18.1, then increase the input gain by the difference between your max input gain and +18.1.
Hope you enjoy this capture pack! If you have any questions or experience any problems, feel free to contact me!
Upon payment, you will receive a download link within 48 hours, usually much sooner.
