Ну я прочитал и фамилию и имя.
Крупный специалист в области цифрового моделирования, или кто он. Чем прославился.
Чтобы все не читать хватит этого:
Boris explains some more about the process: “You can think of it like getting from point A to point B on a map. You know where you’re starting from, and where you want to go, but you’re not yet sure of the places you’ll pass on the journey. So as well as the input and output of an amp, we also make electrical measurements at various key points inside it, which are called ‘states’. These states are a bit like those missing points on the map, and they tell us everything we need to know about the dynamics of the overall electrical system.”
“We put probes and measuring devices into high voltage amplifiers to collect lots and lots of data – input data, state data, and output data,” Fabian adds. “Once we have all those measurements, we give them to the artificial neural network that we’ve designed. Since we already know that the measurements we’ve taken should produce a certain output, the software can then look to find an algorithm that fits with all the numbers. To begin with it does this by guessing, and although it will almost certainly guess wrong at first, it keeps refining until it gets closer and closer. Eventually it arrives at the solution that we can use to model the amp.”
Fabian explains: “Although there’s been so much research into analog circuit emulations over the years, it’s only really quite recently that machine learning has started to become a big topic in our domain, so for us it was a case of being in the right place at the right time.
As Julian observes, it’s arguably these unpredictable characteristics that create the real magic of analog gear.
In other words, ICM picks up all the luscious warmth, aggressive punch, distinctive grit, and more that we expect from classic hardware guitar amplifiers, and recreates it with an unprecedented level of accuracy.
