I use a few plugins too for guitar. I have Neural DSP's Gojira, Nolly, Nameless, Soldano and Parallax plugins. I also really like the guitar amp that comes with Cubase/Nuendo, which sounds great.
I'm not too happy with my sounds through modellers and profilers, though that probably boils down to user error. Find it much simpler to mic up an amp and cab, or to use my Fryette PS-2 as a loadbox and then run into the cabs in the Neural plugins or DynIRs on my Axe FXIII.
I have a small collection of mics that I like a lot. A Shure SM-57 and E906 (dynamic mics), a Lewitt LC440 Pure (condenser) and a Townsend Labs Sphere L-22, which I can use to emulate other mics using the UAD Sphere Mic Collection, Bill Putnam Mic Collection and Ocean Way Mic Collection.
PS: Thanks for the offer to teach me how to use my gear more appropriately, @PurityS.L.G . I might take you up on that someday, but these days looking for work so that I can get back to playing music in my free time.
All said and done, these are the three best recordings I've done so far, for which I used a Kemper Profiler (gosh, maybe I should get another). The first two are sub-2 minute grindcore songs, and the third is a 4-minute doom song with crap, non-autotuned Ozzy Osbourne vocals)
Look What You Did To Me, Taylor Swift
Fie/Arms For The Poor
Murder By Moonlight
I put it down to the drums being played, just gives the songs a totally different vibe that I have missed with all my new recordings. Kind of feels like I forgot to play drums, but it's like someone keeps adjusting my pedals when I go out.
