Show HN: SmartGuitarAmp – Guitar plugin made with deep learning
What a clickbait title.<p>Sounds (to whom?) like a $600 (which one?) amp using deep learning (why does it matter?).<p>To expand on this:<p>-$600 tube amp is not description of a sound. And a plug-in is not something you plug your guitar into to make enough noise for 300 people. "A plug-in sounds like a $600 speaker" makes almost as much sense as the title; by the sound of an <i>amp</i> people often mean the sound of the <i>combo box</i> which houses an amp and a speaker.<p>-If this emulates a <i>particular</i> amp, the title should say which one<p>-If it does a good job at emulating a particular amp, where's the side by side comparison? The video demo only shows the plug-in.<p>-There are plethora of guitar amp plugins. What makes this one any different or better?<p>-What's the significance of deep learning here? Plenty of ways to make this plug-in without deep learning. Why use deep learning?<p>Etc, etc, etc.<p>"An open-source guitar amp VST plug-in made with deep learning" would be a better title, even though the article leaves much to be desired.
