... is corny as hell. I know. ;-)

I bought this pedal after having captures on my QC, you won’t be disappointed.

@@catalyzed8457 It has a thickness to its Tone thats like no other. Hard to describe. Not woofy just heavy.

Understandably! It's a really cool piece of equipment!

@@PippPriss have you tried the Kraken preamp ? If yes, how does the Purple N compares to the Kraken’s second channel ?

Never tried the preamp, but the actual kraken and super kraken amp. The vibe which I got is that the Kraken and especially super kraken were much tighter and focused. More like that 5150 type cocked wah sound, while the purple nightmare is fatter, more like a rectifier/diesel VH4 type of thing.

@ yes the Kraken gain I is Marshallish and gain II is 5150ish while not that tight without a boost. I use the Kraken preamp on my board and while happy with it, I have to admit that the Purple Nightmare preamp intrigues me a lot 😅 Thanks for the precisions ! Keep it up, this channel is great 🤘

Thanks for mentioning that! Do you have a spot where it's especially prominent, time stamp wise? Then I could check that specifically, since I never heard something like that.

@PippPriss I can hear it at the very beginning already. Maybe something with the mic? If you're using a compressor it would explain why it comes and goes a bit 😅

In this video I can hear the room reverb quite a lot pumping via the compressor, maybe it's that. But I think I have fallen victim to the KZbin compression as well. I got to make sure on the next video that I address that. Thanks for chiming in!

Thank you!

Thank you for tuning in! Yeah, it's a minor issue, the good things outweigh by far!

I have no idea, I think Francois showed a bit in his video, but yeah just from listening I'd guess around that frequency.

aliasing happens when frequencies go over the nyquist limit, they essentially start going back down the frequency range from there, like a ball bouncing off a wall. nyquist is half the sample rate used. if using 48khz that would be 24khz. distortion from amps and thus amp models can definitely go that high, but guitar speakers / speaker sims heavily attenuate from like 6khz onwards, but the aliasing would happen at the amp model stage right before it. dan worrall has a great video on stuff like that.

100% my dude! Gotta love music with every fibre of my body!

Thank you so much! Appreciate it massively!

Good question, it probably works just as well but I don't know if anyone tested it yet? Also I guess aliasing is already less present in full rigs because of the cab frequency response, but I could be wrong 🤔 but any incremental change could be beneficial if accuracy isn't negatively impacted!

I have not tested with full captures. My recommendation was just because the high frequency noises are super loud and high signal. I'd hate running that through my real setup and be in the same room :-D

Hey there, there was a massive update some time ago adding Delay, which can be altered to work like a chorus or flanger if you want to. Check out Dimeheads channel on the modulation tutorial, I am showing there how it works :-) It's effect-wise not yet where ToneX is, but damn I love my NAM Player tenfold before the ToneX - gapless switching, nice I/O routing layout etc. Blows ToneX out of the water. :-)

@@PippPriss Thanks greatly for the reply will check that out for sure. For the record I know NAM is better than ToneX I've seen the Null tests but if ToneX were to come out with a floor unit with FX, now I would jump that way - but - it doesn't look like it going to happen. And this is the only NAM game in town.

Hi there! When we are on a gig, we simply don't have any internet connection once connected to the router for our Mixer system. In the rehearsal room, our WAN port (WAN -> like a LAN port, but just in the direction of "public network" instead of private network like a LAN port goes to) is connected to the LAN port of another LTE router. So in the rehearsal room, we have internet, on gigs, as long as we connect to the router of our mixer, no internet. But that said, a lot of the small venues have crappy internet connection anyways, and when on stage, I got better to do then surfing :-) Thanks for checking out the video!

Thanks so much for the reply and the info! Trying to sort our rig out for a small live setting, so as long the router is connected to the mixer it all works and can connect to the apps locally with the inbuilt wifi without the need for a separate network? Thanks for the info again 😊

Thanks! In your case, it depends on how much outputs you need. Without in ear monitoring, you at least have 8 outputs. But yeah, the MIDAS DN4816-O is truly an awesome flexible unit and perfect for our use case.

As far as I am aware, out of the box it does send out program changes on each button, and pressing two buttons will up and down the bank. But I am not sure about this. However, as I outlined, not only via desktop you can control this, but actually also his smartphone, of you can't download any apps on your computer.

@PippPriss thanks I eventually got it to work on neural dsp by going in the settings and enabling the midi. Then right clicking the preset and enabling midi learn. Then pressing the switch multiple times and it eventually detected. Thanks for the response tho!

Thank you! :-)

I personally think it's way more versatile, although Ecocide I personally liked as well. Thanks for checking out the video!

@PippPriss that is wild man. I just downloaded the trial for distant. Lol. Then I see your reply lol. Distant does have a crap ton more features than ecocide.

@PippPriss I'm not a huge fan of Engle amps too... not saying they're bad,...

Yes, I think so, but you'll have to be sure that all are okay with using mono. Our guitar player NEEDED stereo, because otherwise it did not work for him. Even then, you can work it out using the Main Out, but that limits your options for other scenarios. But overall, I think it can definitely work out! :-)

Yes Sir, I think that's the way to go! :-)

I have to admit I am not 100% sure about this since I have moved over to using MIDI, but I think yes, that was exactly possible. The changes you applied would be applied no matter the preset. However, you could not individualize the /B setup on each preset, so each and every preset would be altered in the same way. If you always just activate a lead patch by bumping volume, mids and activating the delay, then it might work. It's basically a MIDI CC command-set without implementing MIDI. If you want to work smarter instead of harder on that front, the MVave Chocolate MIDI controller is a viable option, and luckily, I got a video on that topic quite recently. :-)

@@PippPriss So the footswitch is making the same changes to whatever the current patch is. Ok that should work for me. I have a generic latching footswitch so I'll try that. If it works like that then it's exactly what I need. Although I don't know if it's NO or NC. If not I'll have to look into MIDI. Thanks!

Just found the manual, it's NC.

Ok just did testing. Unfortunately this change only happens on the first patch (A). I can get the boost working for that but it does nothing for B or C.

Well, technology always can fail. But we have set up our pedalboard stuff so that we can also power traditional cabs with power amp pedals on our boards, so that is our safety net. In the worst case scenario, instead of doing a split via ULTRANET to the MIDAS, we could do a mixdown out of the Behringer XR18s Main Outs. And if that fails, well then we just move over to powering the cabinets and using the "old school setup" without in ear. But, to be honest, those are a lot of "if"s, and if I am that worried about something failing, then no pedalboard, because that can fail too, also a.repocament tube amp, because in case, oh an make sure to have a backup instrument for every guy in the band... It becomes a pointless obsession. We never had a single issue with our IEM rack, it works rock solid in all situations in roundabout 10-15 gigs we.played with this setup. And every single rehearsal once a week.

Just read my reply, totally reads itself butthurt. Not meant that way :-D I just like talking. Thanks for checking out the video, and your point is a valid take, just not one that I personally worry about.

I agree, the Josh Middleton plugin is in fact my favorite plugin ever. But for this super low tuned violent death core stuff, this plugin is a bit more specialized. But yeah. Josh Middleton Tonality all the way, forever deep in my heart !

Thank you! Camera setup looking sick, stoked for the upcoming stuff to film with it! Plugin is awesome, give the free trial a try!

Thank you so much for the nice words! JVM NAM it shall be, I guess that one will go live next, might be a week or two. I also made some speaker profiles and IRs, will perhaps hit them on the shop as well soon for a 5er or 10er. Let's see how that all pans out 🙂 Thanks for your support over the years, appreciate it!

THANK YOU! I already got the NAM files ready, I just want to make sure I can launch them on ToneX as well! EVH Red channel is incoming, although the gain level on the red channel which I made are a bit lower than I would dial them in if I had to re-do them (which can easily be treated by using the input of the NAM plugin, but still). So - get your wallet's ready 😛 I guess I will release them somewhere around Mid-to-End February, and shake up things with a JVM Pack inbetween. 🙂 Again, huge thank you!

@@PippPriss killer! can’t wait 🎸

I am not totally sure, but usually I have the drive at zero, Volume around 2 o clock, bright to taste (mostly around 3 o clock), and the attack setting is either on the third or fourth mode, so its a bit djenty, but not super djenty. :-)

@ thanks!

Yes, but as far as I know, this will only react on the foot switch release, and not on the foot switch press. For me it's super important to be able to have the change happening on press. :-)

Thanks for checking it out! Interesting find, I thought they were super close, barely different, but rather in feel. But, you might hear stuff with this deaf dumb-dumb (me) might not hear anymore :-D

Unfortunately, those things are out of reach - BUT: you may contact Quilter and let them know about me. It needs people wanting me to check out stuff and let the companies know, so that they think about approaching me to begin with. :-)

No, not that I recall. Maybe a baked in one, but I am pretty sure there was none on this one. Thanks for checking out the video!

There is an app called Gigfast Lite, which is actually capable of stereo NAM, if I am not mistaken! Should also run on iPad, but I am not sure about that.

Thank you for supporting the channel and what I do here, I appreciate ya buddy!

They'd be very similar, it was just a bit different in the mids. The feel is where they varied a bit more. But both units are nonetheless cool gear nerd products.

Thanks for the kind words!

Thank you!

The original people only have that much amps. I personally just recently released a pack, which I showed in my latest video, but after hundreds of free captures, these are m first commercial,.paid captures. But 9.99$ for 12 awesome tones is okay, I think. :-) If you want to support the channel,.go check out the video and grab 'em! :-)

That would perhaps not work because the MIDAS device works on the proprietary, meaning company-specific, protocol called ULTRANET, at least how I use it. ULTRANET is only for Behringer/MIDAS products.
