5 Reasons Why You Need a C.A.B. M In Your Gigbag!

[@thepedalzone]

This is the best CAB M demo out there!! Incredible presentation, my friend ❤️

[@JayLeonardJ]

Haha, thanks dude! You know how to make yours sound amazing too. We should swap some presets!!

[@Axiom_Link]

Seriously, between the Pedal Zone and JleonardJ I am completely sold on this to notes cab m... I’ve always been an “all tube amp” snob my whole life but this has really opened up my realm of possibilities... The affordability and back problems from lugging around 80 pound combo amps is a no brainer on this pedal!!!

[@Calle565]

Stefan and Jay you're the TOP 2 out there! ❤️

[@SlobodaBalint]

Wow... I was expecting the CAB M to be mind blowing but you sir play such good riffs and licks that I got carried away by them. You just earned a subscriber.

[@jackdifferent]

The best video demo.. most people get confused how to hook the cab m . The way he explained was really very clear to all. No one did like this before

[@JayLeonardJ]

I really appreciate it! Thanks :)

[@georgebarry8640]

Jay, Excellent Video. You seem like a receptive guy..so..you asked what I think. Well, as a guy who plays professionally I love the sounds this makes, and features..but Ive already got it handled by other devices. I had to: I needed to do these tasks starting 8 years ago. But newer players..can just buy this and be done with it! Great demo.

[@Yamazaki1923]

7:58 oh daaaang son...that tone... Makes my day

[@chriskilian2325]

Jay Leonard's production values just scream PBS. Well done!

[@cyanidejunkie]

Ain’t nobody.... Love me better... Make me feel good.... Knit me a sweater.... wait, that can’t be right. Excellent post, thnx.

[@JayLeonardJ]

It may not be right, but it will be what I thinking when I hear this song from now on, haha

[@Bobby_Digital37]

Really great demo!!! That Benson into the cab m was insanely great 👍🏼

[@williamsymes2956]

This is really, really helpful. The demo has a lot of clean tone representation. Thank-you!

[@DreidMusicalX]

I have the Mooer Radar pedal on my board and its does a great job of shaping tone to being perfect. I do find it a bit limited with IR's about loading new ones. I have never been able to get the pedal to load new IR's I wanted. SO I am looking for something I can and this might be what I am looking for. People always think that delays, and reverb are the only things you need just is not so. Those are a must, but what else is a must is being able to use different cabinets like this, EQ pedal, and a Preamp pedal I have always used. I use the Mooer Gold 012 Preamp pedal right now and it truly helps color your tone running in the effect loop. I'm able to dial in nearly any sound to sound almost like any band. But it seems the fun never ends with new gear. Glad I can across your video. I'm now going to have buy one. Know my wife is going to hate you for this, haha! 😉😉

[@mattgilbert7347]

I love the Mooer Micro Preamps. I have two 002 UK Golds, a 017 CAE Plexi, and a 006 Fender Deluxe. Two of those into my Stereo Cabzeus from GFI absolutely rules!

[@proteusswarm7291]

That opening jam was amazing 🤩

[@danpechacek3855]

I’ve been thinking about getting a Benson preamp for its drive capabilities, and a Cab M for all sorts of versatility, and was thinking “if the two together can make a workable super portable sound, that would push me over the edge.” Was watching this video to hear more of the Cab M, then bam, you did exactly what I was wondering about! You may have just sold two things 😂

[@jeddak]

Right up there with Pete Thorn's song demos. Killer!

[@tonedowne]

Impressive bit of kit, but I love the playing. Great feel and taste. This guy must have a full diary.

[@RingoCalamity]

I'm barely a minute into the video but I have to comment - great playing, and great production - you do an awesome job on these videos! Now, on to learning what the heck this thing is...

[@TedSchoenling]

would love to see your take on the update to this box that adds preamp and other features....

[@MeTuLHeD]

I often use any one of several overdrive pedals I have lying around into Two Notes Wall of Sound in my studio. I've gotten some killer amp tones that way. Even the biggest toob snobs among my buddies have been fooled into thinking it's an amp. And I can load any cabinet which fits the sound I'm looking for. So much fun...

[@Polentaccio]

Absolutely made me rethink the way I could record. Close mic'ing is easy enough but to get good room sounds at home is more challenging. I love the speaker through option, makes it very versatile. Def gonna pick one up.

[@bigg4454]

That box is a winner! Love it! It replaced my ADA GS-2 ! Way more features with the Cab M! I've had mine for a couple weeks and still discovering and experimenting. Found out it has Bluetooth, so no hassles with a cable.

[@cookie1138]

Any latency issues with that?

[@bigg4454]

[@tyr678]

Happy to see you showed the exact connection.

You’re having so much fun. Love it.

[@jimbankssurfboards5039]

Wow! That is a seriously killer unit. Stick it on the end of the pedal board and away we go! No more miking battles! I'm off to the shop for one of these! As always, another great review from you. Thanks so much Jay for bringing this to my attention! Your channel doesn't get the attention that it deserves and I'm sure there are many of us who already follow you that feel the same way. Please let us know if there's any way that we can help get the word out.

[@offdutyjie]

Brilliant Jay! Awesome use of this piece of technology! Im always at awe of your playing though bud - energetic, soulful, and rawkness! Keep it up man! Hopefully your channel keeps growing bud!! And also, I think that things are going in an interesting direction in terms of traditional instruments and music right now... We're not really at the forefront of the light anymore and that gives us a chance to grow in different directions and expand... Hopefully with technology and a twist of different thinking - pedals and instruments will take music to a whole nother level! Only time will tell

[@mylemonblue3070]

Thank you for the demo! I like your guitar playing too ! 🎸❤️

[@veerchasm1]

Someone needs to find a way to harness Jay’s energy to solve the energy crisis. Well done sir

[@percival5207]

Effortlessly melodic 🏆

[@genrlgadget]

Ain't nobody... Does it better... Than Jay! Great video as always. My very animated bass player had a bad habit of taking out my amp mic. I bought the Torpedo Captor and use the cab sim direct to house. It's been a great solution. And my sound is the same every night. I am eyeing this piece for the tweakability, however. Wish it came with your chops.

[@JayLeonardJ]

Haha, your bass player sounds a lot like me :) Glad you are digging the Captor!

[@quintondeanmusic]

Damn that is so good. Great demo Jay. I've recently have been looking at this type of setup and I had been heavily looking at the Iconoclast. This thing comes out and it just does so damn much. There are obvious trade offs between the two and I wish I could get the opportunity to mess with both units with my setup to see which one would work best for me. I definitely think that digital processing has gotten amazingly good in the past few years. It also cuts down on my carry load which is always good! I love my "real" amps, but with digital leaders like two notes, neunaber, line 6, meris and many more, it has become abundantly clear that digital can sound just as good as an analog setup and opens up new possibilities for us as musicians. Nice demo and props again to two notes for delivering a fantastic product.

[@JoseyStranded]

I already knew I needed this thing but you sure convinced me. Superb video as ThePedalZone guy said. His video was also great.

[@JayLeonardJ]

Yeah, I LOVE the PedalZone videos!

[@jrdeasis2156]

I always see the Le Clean together with the Cab M. Just how good is this duo?

[@Dogsrule777]

Is it possible to go from your amp into the Cab M and out into your speaker cab and then hear the cab M at work through your actual cab? Thanks

[@haroldsargent979]

Jay nice job on explaining the C.A.B. CAB, I think there is another model out can you do the demo on that one comparing the two?

[@MrRafaelMatiazoguita]

Awesome review!!

[@JRP3music]

A stereo version would be cool. The Torpedo Captor X has stereo feature but no inputs for adding delays.

[@coreyclark6505]

Pretty cool idea using it for stereo delay. Wish I didn’t have to buy a leclean to pull it off though.

[@rikkodeluna1284]

I know this video old but this has helped me a lot to set up my rig.

[@mirandazohran]

Hey Jay, Can you please help me. I have a torpedo cab m and a fender hot rod deluxe. I'd like to know how to use my fender tube amp section through the torpedo without damaging anything. I am aware the fender's speaker has to take the load at all times ( i DO NOT HAVE A LOAD BOX), so that's fine with me if the speaker is connected . Would greatly appreciate your help with the connection from and to the amp and pedal.Thank you.

[@JayLeonardJ]

Use a speaker cable to plug your amp speaker Jack to "AMP IN". Plug your speaker into the "SPEAKER OUT". Then turn your amp on and you are ready to rock.

[@Senonez84]

Hi Jay, good to see your review and your play..that's awesome.. I wanna ask is it possible to do with my hughes kettner tubemeister deluxe 20 connect directly to cab m, with the same way that you did with your deluxe reverb? Because I don't have load box and speaker cabinet also..please help to advise..Thank you

[@horeacrisovan]

GreaT DEMO JAY!!! WOW!!

[@dnantis]

One question is .....Can the cab M handles the load from the Deluxe Reverb amp as you explained on minute 4:25 ?? To my surprise, i thought cab M is not a loader but just a preamp passive signal that can then be put on your DAW ??? a biy confused because then there is no use for the Captor using your method !! erhhh ??? Can you explain what signal has that (copper/silver) cable that you connected from the Amp ( is it from the output of the Deluxe amp or the preamp section? ) Please can you or someone explain this ??

[@escee66]

He uses the cab m in between the amp and it’s speaker. So no need for load box

[@Jstall7543]

Sounds Great! Thank You!

[@brannonwilson71]

What was your signal chain when using the blackspirit 200. Thanks in advance.. Dig your energy and skill

[@jesusvillalobosnieto7265]

Thanks for sharing this nice video! I have some questions about the CAB M... When you use the CAB M in gigs you don't use the CAB M pre-amp, PowerAmp and cab sim functions right? Then why is it useful for in those situations? And I guess the tone is different from when you play at home or studio since you are using the real amp preamp, power-amp and cab, isn't it? Furthermore, the response of the amp to external pedals should be different too.... I don't get the point how to use this device to get always the same tone (gigs, studio and home).

[@jonkomatsu8192]

I need one! Thanks!

[@lightonthelandscape]

HI Jay - great demo. One question. When you use the CAB M as a DI in conjunction with a mic in front of the speaker, are the two signals out of phase? Does the CAB M allow you shift it's signals back into phase with the other? I currently use a Radial JDX for a DI as well as a mic in front of the amp going through a Radial Phaser (to get that big sound through the PA). This allows me to sync the sounds up (or intentionally get that out of phase sound which is sometimes pretty cool). I'm really interested in this CAB M - looks like a must have for so many reasons. Awesome playing as usual too... thanks Jay. Cheers, Pete

[@d.a.t.4699]

did you find out more about this?

[@lightonthelandscape]

@@d.a.t.4699 Sorry man, I didn't. Still using my JDX and Phaser - which is actually quite amazing for larger venues.

[@facepalmjesus1608]

so what kind of speakers are the most efficient to play with a Cab M? active PA? active near field monitors?

[@gregcsefko]

You mentioned using Cannabis Rex speakers. What are your thoughts and personal opinions on them? I play my Two Rock Studio Pro 35 through a 212 cab with Cannabis Rex speakers in it. I enjoy them but I’m not good enough at describing why. They just sound great clean & dirty.

[@jwstout007]

Top notch demo Jay! As a guitarist and audio engineer, I'd love to see something like this as a stereo stomp box though, maybe even with an A/B/Y feature. Something to the likes of the Digitech Cab DryVR, but much more fully featured with all these options going out (to) two different cab IRs. Stereo sound-scaping without the likes of a physical amp, even as small as a Princeton, would be tremendous. I'm chomping at the bit to make a rig happen with proper stereo IRs for a DI setup, and this is SOOOOOOOO close!!!

[@johnerodz7]

Hi great video. Can you go straight to a speaker from the Cab M.? Thanks

[@JayLeonardJ]

Yes you can 👍

[@tobyhuff4581]

Love your videos, and your playing. Do you have any insight as to how this sounds as an amp-less/direct to the snake scenario. I play at church where the stage is very small. I am trying to eliminate the amp for space and to save my hearing. I would be using my Strymon Riverside as the preamp. Thanks again for the very helpful and inspiring vids.

[@jimlund4845]

@JayLeonardJ Hi Jay, If you had the choice between the Cab M and the Neunaber Iconoclast for your direct to "front of house" solution, what would you choose? Thanks for the great videos.

[@JayLeonardJ]

The Iconoclast is great for that "ideal" cab sound. No fizz or harsh frequencies and everything is just smooth and lovely. The CAB M. is a very true representation of the response of a real cab with real mics. That being said, I do find I reach for the CAB M more often when I need to go the cab sim route.

[@jasonkerr931]

J, I have the Cab M and the Le clean. Do you happen to have the preset you use for the Cab M that you share? I would love to see your settings and how you use it. I really enjoy your style of playing

[@Dave6SS]

Would you have to use a preamp type pedal with the Cab m..it already has a preamp on board?

[@ivanlow2570]

6StringStanger No built in preamp but you can use distortion/od/boost pedals with EQ before it as the preamp

[@stevemoll8007]

What Tele pickups are you using? I heard you mention them but now I can't find the reference. thnx

[@hraschan99]

Thanks for your video! I got 1 question: How is your monitoring signalpath ? Do you go straight into the Two Notes C.A.B or do you use a wireless system additional? Greatings Max

[@jefrybay6872]

Hey man great demo. I have a question for you brother, what do you think when you compared this pedal to iconoclast? Thank you

[@hootowl6354]

So, when using this live with an amp and cabinet it does not affect the sound coming from the cab; the line through signal is not affected by the CAB M? These only affect sound going to FOH, recording or headphones?

[@JayLeonardJ]

Your physical speaker tone is not affected by the CAB M :) Enjoy

[@degacci]

Hey great video I looked up this product because of a great guitar player I follow on Instagram he was demoing it. I want to take advantage of technology, I am a traditionalist, I just purchased a line 6 pod 500 X and that is a lot for me to learn. Everything you were talking about in the video is so overwhelming, I feel like I need courses I’m so overwhelmed. Where should I start educating myself? Thank you! Liked and subscribed

[@ruigimarquez8846]

Hi I just have a question, im running through my pedalboard straight to the mixer (im running ampless) and here is my effects chain: Guitar > CP-1X compressor > volume pedal > wah > Micro Pog octave > Ibanez TS9 (OD)> Walrus audio Mayflower (OD) > Klon KTR (OD) > Fulldrive mosfet 2 (OD) > JHS Double Barrel V4 (OD) > Juliar Chorus > Strymon Timeline > Strymon Bigsky > Ditto Looper > Bonafide Buffer I recently purchased a sansamp GT2 pre amp pedal, where would I place the two note CAB m? would it be after the sansamp gt2 pre amp pedal > mixer or cab m > sansamp gt2 > mixer? thanks in advance! and great video!

[@luisangelEXALTA]

i have a similar pedalboard as far as using the GT2, as my preamp pedal. (along with dirt and compression delay reverb)... As i been doing some research, i would place the CAB M after the GT2 and before your delays/reverbs then MIXER.. hope that helps

Anyone considering this should also check out radial's JDX Drive. See Pete Thorn's demo. Analog amp and cab sim direct box.

[@ertreri]

What about the HiFi monitors that you are using. Saying that your sound is consistent just because you are using cab M is a bit of an overshot, because one of the variables is going to be the the HI FI speakers that are playing the cab M sound.
