Naw, that's just GTR3 plug-in which I loaded this morning and have been working with all day.
I'm running the Nembrini RAT plug-in into an amp sim in GTR3.
I understand what the ProCo RAT does now.. it sounds just like my old MXR Distortion+ but with an added filter/phase control.
That really doesn't sound like a Rat pedal to my ears to be honest.
If you asked me to guess what pedal you were using in that clip I would not have said a RAT.
I was a huge RR fan in the 80's and I ran an MXR Distortion + for a long time in front of my 2203, I finally got away from it in the 90's.
I still disagree with you about the Distortion plus being an equivalent to the RAT...there's more going on with how the RAT interacts especially in the pinched harmonic departments. I never ever confused Randy Rhodes tone with Nuno's, they are two distinctly different amp tones.
Now I do hear some overlap between Dime and Nuno on some stuff but that the L500XL similarities.
I think when you plug the real Rat with those NUNO settings into your JCM800 REEEEEEEEEEEEAMP you'll truly understand what myself and lll keep going on about. The Rat jus that thing going on.... especialy for Nuno and I even think it sounds great doing a super crunchy Badlands.
