IS ANALOG STILL KING? 👑 REAL TS808 VS FRACTAL VS MOOER MODELING

Описание: Can you actually hear the difference between analog pedals and digital modeling in 2026?
Today we put the legendary Ibanez TS808 Tube Screamer to the ultimate test against two digital giants: the high-end Fractal FM3 simulation and the budget-friendly Mooer GE200 amp modeler.

Is the Fractal FM3 worth the premium price, or can a cheap multi-fx like the Mooer GE200 deliver the same iconic overdrive tone? We’re breaking down the clean, crunch, and lead tones to see if digital simulations have finally reached perfection or if the analog vs digital debate is still far from over.

In this video we cover:

Mooer GE200 budget modeling performance.

Blind Test: Can your ears spot the real pedal in a mix?

Amp Simulations: Using Marshall JTM45, JCM800, and Silver Jubilee models.

Whether you are a purist or a tech enthusiast, this gear comparison will reveal the truth about guitar modeling vs the real thing.
