Hey guys, I was about to buy an Axe FX 3 for my tone shaping endgame amp modeling needs, then something happened.
I stumbled upon Blue cat...and was shocked. The ability to use Axiom+Pluginscript+patchwork. I saw potential. But I am wondering
Can I use this Trio to create any Guitar? Any Amp? Any can? Any effect? Totally stoked if possible.
Can Axiom do....anything?

The answer is yes. I think Axiom alone can get you somewhere. Additionally on top is the option to combine plugins with patchwork for more shaping. Plug'n'Script lets you create your own plugins by coding them, so eventually anything is possible if you have some knowledge in programming languages and audio technics

Thanks. The tone quality seems pretty amazing! Do you use it personally?

It is quite powerful indeed. The built-in Re-Guitar plug-in will not let you create ANY guitar, but it still gives you an infinite number of tones out of a single guitar, replacing the pickups, or adding a hollow body "in the box".Underoath77 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 16, 2020 11:41 pm I stumbled upon Blue cat...and was shocked.

On the amp simulation side, (Destructor is the amp sim that is built into Axiom), it can do almost anything (for very hi gain tones, you may want to chain several instances though).
And with the new tone maps feature (also included in 9 effects - it's not only for the amp sim anymore), it should be much easier to find the right tone, without having to understand anything to the parameters.
If you have a bit of programming experience Plug'n Script can indeed help you create new effects. However Axiom already has 44 built-in effects, and you can load third party plug-ins too, so most tones should be covered!
You may want to give a try to the demo and see if it works for you!
