Obvious ABBA influence in this tone, very inspiring

ABBA is ABBA backwards. It's for people who don't dare to say ABBA. Like upside down cross but it's upside up.

[@FortinAmps]

Hit us up. ;)

[@longwalkinthewoods5457]

What would you say is the main difference between this amp and the Nameless? They both sound impressive...Nameless sounds a bit more modern tonally?

[@FrankThaThird]

longwalkinthewoods I would say it’s the other way around, the nameless is based off a modded Marshall head, and the Natas is Mike’s(Fortin) own modern high gain head design, where you’re given more options to shape the gain structure. This is my understanding from the videos and reading I’ve done about Fortin, and could be completely wrong lol.

[@mlsoundlab]

Thank you again Ola for praising the cabinet section! When a Swede compliments a Finn... I don't know what happens since it's the first time. :D

[@AdamTrain]

Absolutely love your work on the Nameless and the Darkglass v2 plugins. Some of the best cab sections I've ever heard. Is the NTS the same as the Nameless do you know? Or a different cab? Getting a second guitar cab section from you would definitely be enough to get me to preorder

[@rguez2332]

Can we know what Cabs were used on the NTS??

[@IStabz]

sounded great. I noticed with "most" metal plugins, the noise gates never really work right..they either choke your sound too much or there's a buzz/hum. These guys nail it!! \,,,/

[@rainsweat]

Ah Ah ! nice

[@goatsurgeon]

The more an amp sim can squeeze in, the better- it’s easier on your daw. I love it when they do pedals, amp and cab- very convenient

[@ToxicxEternity]

9:14 seriously one of my favorite metal riffs. kudos for that Ola. This plugin sounds great as well!

[@WarpedENT94]

After trying out 5 different neural dsp plugins, I finally made the decision to buy this one! (after finding a sweet discount code). This thing screams through four 15's.. definitely in my top 3 favorite plugins.

[@KyleBurnsMusic]

I remember when i first started recording from home and your options were pretty much AxFx, Pod HD's or the pod farm stuff. and if you were on a budget the pod farm was horrible for heavy tones. or tones period. It's amazing how far a long we've come with plugins.

[@witeshade]

Literally the one thing i don't like about that, is that the dull grey color of the Grind pedal makes it look like it's a disabled button compared to the other two white pedals next to it. Like, I would naturally not click on that pedal because I thought it was an unavailable option.

[@fredriksvard2603]

Yes, did this for a while with nameless lol. But the overdrive pedal is so much better so now its kinda good that it looks disabled.

[@gentlewolf1279]

Would be cool to see a Nameless vs Natas demo to hear the difference

@@xanderraymondcharles Ha ha! Can't wait for your video, it'd help me decide which one I'll buy.

[@TobyKBTY]

Both the NTS and Nameless sound UNREAL, but so far the differences I've observed are the NTS can get a slightly more old school (chug instead of djent) and balanced tone without as much twangy, modern high end, while the Nameless has that modern high end and presence perfect for lower tunings/djent? I'm pretty sure both can be tweaked to be close to each other, I'm just trying to figure out the key differences between the two. Also, with the addition of a clean channel, the NTS should be more versatile as well, I assume.

[@adambrook6322]

this is an interesting observation, thanks. That helps a lot

[@jcalla28]

Having tried both, I have to say that they are Very different sounding and CANNOT be tweaked to sound similar. What you said in your first paragraph was spot on, to the point where the Nameless is almost unusable for Standard tuning because of how harsh it sounds. Not saying it's a bad amp, it's not, but it just doesn't work at all for non-dropped tunings. It's like it was made with one type of Metal sound in mind. The NTS is much more flexible in that aspect.

[@gregg4164]

That drop C tone was the sickest i have ever heard. I have found my favorite new tuning.

[@matttaylor1449]

I own this plugin and a few amps, yet i still find myself coming back to this video.

[@alfaalex101]

Easily one of the best plugins I've ever heard. In one word: Natural.

[@grampageoff]

Whatever Fortin is paying you is not enough cause that's TWO plugins you've sold me in less than 30 minutes worth of videos. This sounds amazing!

[@joes.3083]

Dude, me too. I bought this plugin, Archtype Rabea, and Darkglass all at the same time when it was 50% off. People think my recordings are done in a professional studio now. but it's just my fookin' bedroom dude. hahah These plugins are Absolutely mind-blowing how good they sound.

[@spiritofthetallhills2037]

This seems like the underdog in the neural line up that people kinda sleep on. I tried this with both the slo and granophyre recently for the sale and ended up getting the slo ultimately but sometimes i wonder if i should have got this instead cause after i spent a bit more time with it i think i was liking the tones i got even more than the slo. The girth grind knobs really are a game changer and almost seems like you can get it to sound like an approximation of any amp you want with enough tweaking. Also with most plugins i feel like its kinda challenging to find that right balance of saturation and tightness but those knobs make it really quick and easy

[@rocketPower047]

It's here!!! Pre-ordered and waiting

[@bobwalters2612]

If you listen to the Fortin nameless Suite demo with Ola you can definitely hear a difference with this natas plug-in. This plug-in is much more tight and versatile in the many distortions it has! And nice cleans too...

[@DrakonisOfficial]

Thing I like most about Ola's videos, is that he tests gear with a good range of dynamic riffs. 99% of all plugin example videos are just Djent on a 7 string, so it can hide how shit the plug in actually sounds. They usually sound like bees as soon as a note if held for more than half a second, but I trialed this and it sounds unreal.

[@DavidDiMuzio]

Sounds extremely similar to the Fortin Nameless to me. I guess I'd have to A/B them to distinguish a difference. Would be nice if they would add the pedals that come with this one to the Fortin Nameless since we paid the same price for the Nameless, but we didn't get the additional pedals with it...

[@michaelsalgado7990]

David DiMuzio I heard they’re adding the zuul to the nameless in an update soon after they release nts

[@donkendall6685]

You could have just titled the clean preset "Cleanis"

It's Friday night, enjoying some coffee and Ola shreds. Monstrous plug in video. I can't stop thinking about a Solar ML. Triple humbuckers, triple p90s, maybe an obnoxious set of triple coil humbuckers. I commented similar things in another video. Fans keep talking about a Solar ML. Perhaps it's just crazy talk. Ace took on the Budokan and Dime was a massive fan of his. Black tootH!!

Neural DSP have -50% OFF crazy sale right now, so if you wanted to buy it, but thought it was a bit too expensive for you - GO FOR IT NOW! And i mean right NOW, since the sale ends in an hour.

[@drtytech9885]

the riffs at around 10 minutes are epic

[@starwolffan13]

That fucking guitar looks so good from that one side angle.

[@Lukasz_KLAT]

Since it's going to be standalone too - it would be cool to have additional reverb/delay after cab section.

[@rikydestudio]

Honestly I've always preferred the original holy grail NATAS over the SATAN...anyway both great amps, just NATAS is one of the best ever imho

[@OnionMilk420]

hard to believe this was 500k SUBS ago! love you ola! \m/\m/

[@hittinskinz24]

NTS sounds more for classic metal tones where the Nameless is better for modern ones. Both good, just a choice of personal taste.

[@CarcPazu]

Weird, I thought exactly the inverse. To me the Nameless is closer to a souped up Marshall and the NTS, closer to a Mesa/Engl/5150...

[@slbstmrd]

Honestly, the fact that the NTS seemingly can do really raw and varied distorted tones as WELL as great cleans is what attracts me, and I bought the Nameless Suite. I'll use that for specific things and 7- and 8-string songs, since I feel it really brings out the low end growl in extended range. I really like the overdriven plexi-type tones in the Nameless Suite as well. It just can't do cleans without very carefully dynamic playing and rolling off a lot of the volume on the pickups (which really kills the dynamic range, imo).

[@Oilid]

Fortin are nailing it!... (pun intended)...

[@ChernobogStudio]

[@denislavstoychev7240]

Sound killer! And yet... Why couldn't they include a TUNER? Or maybe update the versions with one, since competitors have that for the same price more or less.

[@BlueTransAm83]

Dang, for price. Nice simple pretty solid sound. I'd probably EQ the vary high (20K all the way down, 10k middle? Put one like 2.4K up some. Punch certain mids, others? Bass 20 down, 40 maybe up some or 80Hz. I'd find it lol.) But sweet. Then semi scoop a second track. 4 split each side. Scoop sounds lost in mix, but it's there.
