VICTORY KRAKEN V4 AMPLIFIER - Metal

[@OlaEnglund]

Checking out the Victory Kraken Amplifier Pedal! FUN TIMES!

[@karlmikhailtibule1481]

Yeah that's right

[@ricardoferreira369]

Can you review PEAVEY 6505 MH and MARSHALL ORIGIN 5 ? Thanks

[@ilovegreenock]

Got that Kraken coupled with a two noted cab sim it's a belter !

[@devilbeastie]

Solid 6/10

[@tankdarla637]

Shit Ola you test everything ....thats awesome. Also if you cant send me that brownish solar tele evertune you can send me the orange solar in this video, thanks.

[@RabeaMassaad]

Reallly enjoyed that video hahah, glad you enjoyed it man! Loved the ending hahaha

[@BlackSnack]

Rabea/Ola mashup. We need this so much. And at least one song.

[@sergeantslowpoke1550]

he clapped and said it chugs not realizing that this was not an episode of will it chug

Every video is an episode of 'Will it Chug'.

I'm trying to imagine the face of the guy who sent you the unit while watching the end of the video :D

[@VictoryAmps]

We quite enjoyed it to be fair haha

I saw your comment before i saw the end and was like "huh? But when I saw it, i was like "ohhhhhhhhhh 😬" lol

[@chriscarrillo967]

0:41 the most swedish sentence I've ever heard! love it

[@isaacvasquez4401]

Lmao

[@bflo5210]

I love victory preamp pedals... I personally use the sherriff and it turns my 2 channel mesa boogie fillmore 50 into a 4 channel with 4 different tones and gain... I always get asked about my tone & that pedal at gigs... definitely would recommend having one

[@ERWebster]

I have the the Kraken preamp pedal on my grandmeister 40 for the same effect. It really is a great line of products. Worked well on my Katana mk1 too, in fact became my gain channels of choice on that rig.

[@toerti9589]

Yeah, i have the kraken vx and the copper v4 preamp pedal. And people from other bands ask me about the kraken all the time when playing live. It just has a really likeable sound.

[@disco4535]

@@toerti9589 I personally cant stand the sound lol. And it's not just the Kraken. I've tried for years to get into Victory stuff, but there's just something about the sound especially with lots of gain that I can't like. It almost has like a hollow, airy fizziness, something about the low mids maybe? I actually thought it sounded pretty good when Ola played clean though.

[@toerti9589]

@@disco4535 the Victory stuff definitely has a distinctive sound. Personaly i like it but i know what you mean.

[@KB_Joys]

That unit sounds super smooth. Almost like it needs some presence it something. It is very pleasing tone and easy on the ears, not shrill in the least. I like it.

[@kellyjackson7889]

Ola has an aversion to an amp's treble control, he likes his tone very dark.

[@KB_Joys]

@@kellyjackson7889 I as well ☺️

[@crackedsystem2158]

That ending was pure science

[@MrThek187]

Always great to see Ola having fun just by himself

[@Kokosnuss]

I love the kraken on the thing. wish there were more illustrations like that on instruments and equipment. Cause I would love to have big ass cthulhu on my guitar.

[@leah77]

I thought I was the only one !!!! I believe Walrus Audio have a compressor pedal with a huge octopus on it (on some versions). It was later replaced by a diver but you can still find the giant oc around. Beautiful stuff

[@Kokosnuss]

@@leah77 Yeah man, I feel ya. I appreciate a "blank slate" look and less definitly is more when it comes to instruments in my opinion. However there is a huge lack of artistry on instruments. The flower decals on the soundbox Ola uses in the vid are also beautiful.

[@bruettingmarcus]

@Kokusnuss Seems like Hetfield had the same idea lately 😁 Search for his ktulu snakebyte 👍🏻

[@guitarsandsynths656]

This and the KSR power lunchbox amp with Ceres are two best small format pedal sized amps now.

[@fherdelpino]

5:18 Sound Editing Academy Award right here

[@recordatron]

Not sure if it's the settings or that particular setup but it doesn't sound as nice as I expected it to. I have the foot pedal/pre-amp version of it and it sounds great going into the front of most amps I've tried with it so far. The EQs are quite sensative though so you have to be quite precise.

[@piemanmusic]

Yeah - I feel like I'm hearing some phasing or something...

[@deadboz6007]

Do you use it with the 4 cable method? I just use the preamp like a preamp.

[@bishfish1514]

I love the design on the side it looks sick

[@catobringas8637]

Watching Ola trying to get every device to sound like Pantera’s tone. “Hmmm that’s not quite right yet”

[@Kathayne636]

I like the part where he chugs E5 and then hits some open strings. Then chugs E5 again etc.

[@forestgreenman]

Just an idea, if you want an overdrive with bass try the Nobles ODR-1. There is so much bass they have a bass cut switch inside the battery compartment.

[@TVoltG]

A friend of mine is using a presence and depth pedal to make the bass shine better with this amp..sounds great with it.

[@willieklijn5901]

10:02 not in a million years i would’ve expected Ola playing a little bit of sweet red hot chili peppers on a Kraken demo😂

[@D.Guitar]

Damn ... That thing sounds good without anything else

[@deadboz6007]

I use the preamp Kraken V4 with an Orange Pedalbaby for recording ... and wondering some times that there is no boost switched on ;)

[@mikedixon8830]

The Hesu cab is a beast 🇵🇱

[@jessewarner7864]

I love how patient Ola is , if I had half the stuff happen to me that happens to him I'd be a cussing mess 😂 love me some Ola ❤

[@gonzorudeboy]

Watching you looking for the whammy bar made me wonder: what an evertune whammy bar would do? Would it resist Kerry King's soli?

[@mateusz_koziorowski]

Looks like Taurus's Stomphead design is getting to more and more amp producers. :) Great trend.

[@borgesstd]

The Kraken sounds great, but can we talk about this GORGEOUS guitar???

[@deadboz6007]

It's okey .... :-P

[@jeinfimate2079]

I keep looking at the guitar... It's just sooo beautiful.

[@guitarsandsynths656]

Looks and sounds awesome! Would love to use with my Mesa 1x12 cab for light rig.

[@andybungert]

Lost my mind laughing at it all going over the edge, and the suspense was killing me :D Don't ever change Ola

[@harpy6540]

What's up Ola I've been playing the shi* out of Starzinger it'sreally is good 👍 I just wanted to tell you man you bring Joy to peoples life, in a world 🌎 that's gone mad it's nice to just chill after a long day and click on one of your videos have a laugh or two.

[@stjintje]

good to see you're finally doing drop tests of amps as well to prove their strength! MORE OF THAT, drop a rectifier next!

[@dreammfyre]

Yeah. It’s got a very compressed sound. I dunno about this one.

[@The_Bass_Stunters]

Thought that was just me glad you mentioned it. I’ll stick to the pre amp.

[@tobiash04]

its not compression, its cutting edge dynamic correction

[@davedavem]

@@The_Bass_Stunters what do you run the preamp into?

[@resistorstudios]

Sounds very unpleasant to me

[@tippss3332]

It's definitely the power amp. I love my straight preamp pedal. The Seymour Duncan power stage power amp is a really great combo with the preamp pedal. Solid!!!!

[@donaldstiles397]

First,I'm a drummer,but love guitar,Ola is freaking awsome,talent,tone,just badass. For this amp,it's crunchy but,for me needs more low end to get the chug effect that ola usually gets.

[@KauffeyBean]

Great review as always! I am delighted by the cab sims. And thank you for 'the test for science'! 😅😂

[@emirarnas]

we can see how much ola in love with fuckin chuggin distortion by turning down the reverb level like that and by speeding up the clean sound section

[@spearhead9886]

Great video, suggestion for next gear review would be the fender bass breaker amps, I think you’ll be surprised how good it chugs

[@bobsurface908]

That third amp SIM is very close to the miked tone... Nice one..m

[@mikegleeson8733]

Cant say I’m too impressed with this amp, but Ola is fun to watch and always gets a good sound.

[@Rock-N-Roll-618]

Just keeps getting better !

Wow that's a badass little box 📦 👏🤘Thanks for testing shit and sharing your knowledge! Metal!!!🤘

when I try to order another beer after chugging 10 glasses 0:41

[@Briburch1008]

I believe that was 8 chugs to the drop. Nice! ❤ 👑.

[@tomieilamo]

Not sure whether the preamp version is just different, but I run bass at around 9 o'clock and gain at around 10-11 o'clock and it sounds good to me :D I'm boosting with a Joyo Tauren though, so maybe that is giving me all that bass and gain.

[@9hk38f]

Seems just like the Amp Tweaker. Which is still over priced, but they are at least in the 300$-600$ range. not a whole grand.

[@Bazs0811]

These kind of things are not about only sounding good…there are other features/functions might be important on stage or in studio. Having more option is always good.

[@9hk38f]

@@Bazs0811 You bring up a very valid point. I personally wouldn't even know how to use most of the features on this thing. So wouldn't be worth the price for me.
