Hello everyone.  
I have an isolated guitar track I recorded years ago, and I was wondering if I can use that track to do a neural capture from it?

thank you,

Joao.

No, essentially you would need an amp/drive (sim or physical) to capture tones.

If you had the dry guitar track too, you might be able to capture the tone using something like [Neural Amp Modeler](https://github.com/sdatkinson/neural-amp-modeler). If not, your best bet is to use your ears and try to create a matching tone.

Thanks @MP_Mod and @jamsden. It was worth a shot.  
Would be a pretty amazing thing if that worked.

You could also add a feature request (if not already there).
