3 Minute Demo: 1955 Champ vs AmpliTube '57 Custom Champ

Hey Everyone! I was recently using AmpliTube to "jot" down some song ideas, and I got to thinking that a video like this could be fun. I've done amp comparisons to other modeling software in the past (and even comparisons to other AmpliTube models), but the 1955 Champ that I use in this video has yet to see a software comparison -- so here it is!

In recording this video, I used a Shure SM57 and Royer 121 directly on the center of the speaker, which appears to be how AmpliTube has these two mics set up in the digital amp room. For the digital amp itself, I'm using the AmpliTube '57 Custom Champ that comes with the second edition of the Fender Series. I chose this model over AmpliTube's normal '57 Champ for no other reason than the fact that I already owned the "Custom."
