the scoop on two notes engineering

We kicked things off with a bit of background on Justin. Spoiler alert: he's a massive guitar nerd just like the rest of us. From his early days in music retail to running a tech consulting company and finally landing at Two Notes, Justin's journey is as diverse as his knowledge on all things guitar and tech.

analog meets digital

The main theme of our chat was the fusion of analog and digital in today's music world. Justin took us on a trip down memory lane, reminiscing about the evolution of digital tech for guitars from the '80s to now. Back in the day, digital tech sounded harsh and artificial. Fast forward to today, and the modeling world has exploded with options, making it easier than ever to find your perfect tone.

But let's be real—guitarists can be stubborn creatures of habit. We've been marketed to for years that vintage is better, so the transition to digital can be a hard sell. Justin's take? Hybrid systems like Two Notes' Captor X strike the perfect balance between analog warmth and digital versatility.

why two notes rocks

Justin highlighted why Two Notes stands out in the crowded world of digital modeling. Their products are more than just gadgets—they're utility tools designed to enhance your gear without sacrificing tone. Take the Two Notes Captor X, for example. It lets you crank your amp at home without waking the neighbors or damaging your hearing. And the best part? It captures the essence of your amp's sound, so you get that authentic tube amp feel even at low volumes.

artists who swear by two notes 

From Alanis Morissette to Gojira, Two Notes gear is a staple for touring musicians across genres. Justin gave us a peek into their artist roster, proving that their products are stylistically agnostic. Whether you're into Americana or modern metal, Two Notes has got you covered.

the future of tone: ai and beyond

We also dove into the tech side of things, discussing how AI is revolutionizing the modeling world. With advanced algorithms and machine learning, Two Notes is constantly improving their products to get even closer to that elusive tube amp feel. The result? Tools like the Two Notes Opus, which combines amp modeling, cabinet simulation, and studio-grade effects in one compact package.

Interactive Fun with Polls and Giveaways

Throughout the event, we kept things interactive with polls and Q&A sessions. It was fascinating to see that 100% of our audience hadn't yet dived into the world of load boxes and modelers. Clearly, there's a lot of curiosity and potential for these amazing tools.
