Well, you realize, they likely use Revv amps, they have the Torpedo Cab Sim out? I don’t understand why every amp doesn’t have a basic cab sim, for the direct out. The Egnater Rebel 30 has one from 2010, that sounds better than playing through any modeler and cab sim pedal, whether Line6, Fractal, Quad, UAFX, and Two Notes stuff as well. This looks great, because it’s $300, with more features than anyone else of Two Notes quality, with any product like this. *The reason the cab sim out sounds so good, is because it’s using the preamp and power amp from the tube amp, run into it. It’s the only amp, other than the Revv ones, and a couple others, that have the same type of setup, that doesn’t really change my tone, and gets all the headroom of the amp.

This looks like a really great product. I'm interested in it more as a way of using the DynIRs with my pedalboard, but I'm sure that I'd mess around with the other stuff too. One thing that I'd be interested in seeing is how the noise gate works if you turn the threshold up a bit. It's looks like while you were using it you had it turned all the way down. Maybe it's possible to turn it up a bit and get rid of the sound while still having it sound good. I don't have a ton of experience with noise gates, but I would think that for a high gain sound you might want it turned up a smidge.

I just bought a Torpedo Opus and will see if it will work well with a Kingsley Juggler preamp as a mini kit for a quiet recording clean tones and light overdrives. They will be plugged right into the Apollo Twin => Logic. I'll also run my tube amps through it and use the built-in IR's (I'll record it simultaneously: AMP+ Opus/Amp + real speaker+SM57/AKGC414). I wish they had shown that in the episode because that's what I mainly concerned about. Actually, I don't intend to use presets at all but only simulations of power amplifiers and IR's. I'm hoping that my amps + IRs will perform better than the OX speaker/microphone simulations I've been using for several years, which have always sounded worse than a quietly twisted amp with a regular SM57. Now I have a Fryette PS-2a and it is a really good device as an attenuator. The sound of the amps is natural and you can turn it down smoothly. However, I live in a block of flats and while I can record beautiful clean guitar sounds here, for heavier sounds I need good speaker simulations. I'll be back in a week after testing so maybe I'll comment.

Hey, guys, I just noticed something that at 13:24, you may not have seen yet: While you've been talking about the amount of noise you're hearing, I've been looking for possible causes, and I noticed that the enhancer is on. Many enhancers work by mixing a small amount of noise into the guitar signal, thereby giving that signal a small goose in the upper mids and highs. I have noted that the enhancement is NOT dynamic; it doesn't react to playing at all. If I were editing that patch, I would start by flipping that one switch from "guitar" to "bass." If that's not enough, pull back on the "body" control. Failing all else, turn the enhancer OFF. I mean, that's what I'D do.

Does seem to be a trend of companies looking at the dozens of full featured multi-fx units and thinking "hey, if I split various bits of this into separate standalone products then I can sell them for a lot more money". I'm sure this would be a world beating product if was the first of its kind. But it's just another pre-amp with a cab sim, with very limited controls on the unit. It doesn't seem to be doing anything new or unique. There's thousands of these. I own probably ten things already that do this. Why anyone would buy it over one of the many others? Especially when you look at what you can get for the same money. At some point, companies are going to have to realise that the market can't support hundreds of near identical products being released every month.
