Which amps / speakers / cabs / rigs do you blend for creating huge tones?
@jensvide7773 жыл бұрын
Grindstein + Grindstein. Really, a thick middy tone and a really thin one works great.

I am using my Engl Fireball 25 together with a Rocktron mAXE. The mAxe for itself sounds "interesting", but it is the right tool to fill up a high gain valve sound. Since I am lazy, my 3+4 are actually one track mixed into two instances of Overloud THU with Rectifier profiles. At the end it is a hybrid setup: Valve, transistor and program code... For the cabs: Engl IRs (the official ones) and a real E110 cab mic'ed with a E609 and a MD421 (that is tricky, since it is a small speaker). I think the E110 adds everything a 4x12 can't provide... :-)

perfect video. I use a 3 Channel Triple Rectifier for the main body, Carvin V3 for crispy highs, and a Panama Inferno as an alternate if i need a bit more mellowed/Cultured sound. sometimes i will lightly augment these with high gain plugins sitting just underneath everything. i'd love to get a Vox nightrain to use as a nasty/trash guitar tone to blend in, but there are many things that come first on my studio 'to-get' list right now.

That nasty clanky/nasally/vomity grindstein distortion really melds well with the bass guitar, it marries the 5051 guitar tracks with the bass guitar track, i didn't get that sensation with the orange layer that sound just beefed the main guitar sound (that's the way i perceived it).

I'm so glad to see this topic pop up! I generally pan a Dual Rectifier on one side vs the Orange Thunderverb... Those two create one helluva tone that sits really well in my mixes. The Thunderverb takes a little tweaking, but with proper mic choice & placement it clarifies into a thick, meaty rhythm chug without getting too "muddy". The TVerb has a LOT of low end, but I find that using a Bottle mic, paired with a more traditional condenser mic, breathes life into the Thunderverb, bringing out some of the crispness that I found it to be lacking. It's a BEAST - especially when panned vs something a little crisper like the Dual Rec. This pair is f'ing MAGICAL for old-school metal tones! I don't really fk with super-low tunings much, so I really can't speak on using these two together for more "modern" metal / djent styles. But for late 80's / 90's thrash metal tones, or even just hard rock if I roll back some of the gain a little, they sound absolutely killer together! 🤘 Now, admittedly I'm referring to the modeled versions due to cost... have you seen what a physical Orange Thunderverb 200 head sells for?!! 😮 But with some decent software like Amplitube 5 they NAILED Mesa Boogie tones imo, and they did a really decent job with the Orange package as well as far as I can tell. I don't have much experience with an actual real life Thunderverb, but I did own a Dual Rectifier (as well as a Trip Rec) years back, and ikmedia really did a great job recreating the Mesa Boogie tones imo. But however you're approaching it you just can't go wrong with these two titans together! 🤘

Now, having completed the video, I'm going to try experimenting with adding in a few more tones as suggested. Maybe something a little more "fizzy" like a Soldano Slo 100, or an ENGL. The possibilities are literally endless. So thanks for this video mate! This is the best high-gain tutorial vid I've watched in quite some time! It really got me excited to try expanding on the two-head tone I've been using for a while now. I've occasionally swapped out the Dual Rec with a Mark IV, or the Fender Metalhead, but I've never attempted to blend more than two different tones together. I mean, I've double-tracked the same tones of course for a natural chorus(ish) effect, which I've found helpful to sort of fill out my tone on particular tracks, but that's about it. So your vid really has gotten my creative juices flowing and I can't wait to put your advice into practice when I sit down at the desk tonight. Cheers!! 💯

@@KohleAudioKult sorry for the delay brother. I'm using the bottle 563 (based on a Neumann CMV-563) paired with a Dynamic 57 on the TVerb200 (I had stated above that I was pairing the bottle with another condenser mic, but I was mistaken - it is actually the dynamic 57 that I landed on in the end). It was a happy accident that just seemed to help me get what I was looking for out of the Thunderverb, and sounded even better when I put it into the mix with the Rectifier, which surprised me. Funny side note, this actually sounds a little better to me when using Amplitube iOS 🤷♂️. Go figure. But I've been using the same pair on the Mac with similar results. I just watched another vid of yours on understanding and dialing in high gain tones, and I liked how much you were encouraging experimentation. I generally wouldn't have thought too use the Bottle 563, but I was f'ing around and stumbled across it. I moved it back a wee bit from the cab and suddenly it just came alive for me. Same with cabs recently - I decided to try a few different cabinets with the Dual Rectifier recently out of boredom and discovered that I really prefer Amplitube's "4x12 Metal T 1" cab with the Dual Rec when using the Dual Rec on it's own (on Amplitube 5 anyway - I LOVE the Mesa 4x12 cabs irl). So my point, if anyone else actually reads all of this, is to experiment like crazy... especially considering all of the great, inexpensive modeling software out there. That $5 mic add-on ended up leading me to the exact tone that I needed in that moment. Thx for responding man! Hope you find something helpful here. Keep up the great vids!🤘

I did something similar last night for bass tone on mx5. Ran an Ampeg style amp with all lows and fair amount of mids clean and split the amp. The other amp I added was a Marshall 100 style amp with pretty much all the lows removed. Nasty fuckin sound. Then blended the 2, Marshall a little lower, for a brutal ass bass sound. Low end balls with enough rasp to cut down a forest.

Briliant video, man! I'm always learning so much and having a damn lot of fun. And yeah.. a video about Amplitube 5 should be interesting. It usually gets a lot of hate, but I bet you can make it put out some cool noise, hahah!

So far I was pleasantly surprised by Amplitube 5

I actually have a synth sound I made specifically for a similar technique to what you're talking about. It's this weird lo-fi thing that sounds kind of terrible on its own, but when layered under the guitar it both fills out and adds an edge to the sound without being noticeable if you don't know it's there

Great video! I did nearly exactly this a couple weeks ago. Recorded a metal band that wanted to track with the Gojira plugin. Got a nice bright aggressive tone. But, I felt it was lacking, and considering the band plays oranges live, I decided to get a thick tone with my rockerverb and couldn’t ask for a better combo

Great video. I don't even play heavy music but I can tell you this video makes me want to try blending a Fender Tweed or Blackface with a VOX AC30.

Great video and yes I think you should totally do an Amplitube 5 video. I like it a lot. So much better than any other release of it and would love to see you do a video on some tones you get and with what.
