I'd have to ask, I'm not very familiar with that genre but my bandmate

is and among his circle of metalfriends and acquaintances re-amping and

using modelling software is not considered bad. Using Line6 equipment on

the other hand... ;) But my guess is that in a good pro studio with (a)

good producer(s) analogue effects and amps are preferred. At least, I

hope so...
Best,
Jeremy
