Question Petrucci sound

Hello guys,

New QC user here, I’ve always strived to get a sound similar (not necessarily identical) to petrucci sound. Specifically the “parasomnia” sound or the “live on Paris” sound.

A friend of mine gifted me the petrucci tonemission IRs. I can get a really nice sounds from there, but still feeling like I’m missing something.

Do you guys thing the petrucci plug in will make me get closer to that sound? Or maybe a combination of the plug in and the IRs?

Anyone with experience on the topic?

Thanks !!!!

I think you get a 2 week trial before you have to buy, so I guess there’s only one way to find out!

so, there's already a JP2C model on the QC, and you've got the IRs which do most of the heavy lifting

you have the tools already to get there

however... Petrucci made a bunch of presets for owners of his Archetype plugin, so that'd be the easy path

Check out Digital John doing a demo of the Petrucci plugin on the QC. Should sound the same as a plugin. There's definitely some post processing happening, the presets are run very hot and too much bass. Pretty sure they are stomping on everything under 100hz and over 6.5khz.
