run a mxr gate in the effects loop
Hey, I have the natural toned one 🫢 ugly af but that one is so much nicer. Jealous.
I don't mind the natural tone ones, but I agree I really like the blue haha
do you do master volume up, channel volume down or the opposite?
Thanks for this video man. Don’t know how I didn’t see this one 😎🤜🤛
Not a problem! I'm always happy to rep you guys! 😁
@@HighImpaktAudio Rad man! Are you into vsti guitars, I could set you up with an NFR if you want to cover it ?
@OTTOAUDIO I can't say that I've covered a VST guitar before sure I'd love to check it out! Here's my email and we can chat some more on the specifics. Highimpaktaudio@gmail.com
i can only hear the realy good sound of xour guitar... 😅
Hey Chris, you put together a great informative, learning vid for the beginner. These are techniques for the arsenal of any guitarist, well done, cheers Will 😎🤙
Thank you so much my friend! 😁
Where are these made?
Most of Orange's amps are made in the UK and I believe the have a few products that have started in China
Insane video, i love your way of teaching, fast but you don’t leave anything out
Thank you so much for watching and the compliment! 😁 I'm glad you found my video useful!
I started playing metal in the early 2000's but haven't picked up a guitar in forever, but recently started again. This video is great for beginners and for a reminder of things i need to make sure I'm up to sniff with as an out of practice player. Good job.
Welcome back to the guitar world! I'm glad I can help anyone who is getting started, or getting back into guitar. Thank you so much for watching! 😁
They basically modded this to be the Ibanez version of the Maxon OD808x. Maxon designed the TS808 for Ibanez, the Maxon OD808 is the same exact pedal. Not sure if this mod is EXACTLY the same but pretty darn close with the higher gain and clipping. Pretty sick. Not sure if it’s in my head but it seems this one is a little more mid honkey than the OD808X.. thanks for the video. 🤙
Hello! Compared to the OD808x I find the fortin 808 to be quite a bit hotter on the signal and yeah it definitely focuses on the mids forsure. I tend to dial back the mids around 1K and it does pretty well for me. Thank you so much for watching! 😁
@@HighImpaktAudio np man ! Thanks for the extra info. Hey I’ve been wondering why there are so many pedal clones, even a fortin 33 clone but I can’t seem to find an od808X clone anywhere. Do you know of any ?
Awesome stuff! Please include chapters
I'll start working on that today! Thank you so much for watching! 😁
Bogner's cab 4x12 is pritty good for high gain sound
I love Bogner gear they much such killer stuff! 😁
the green one sounds punky 🔥
Chug chug chug chug
О хей, парень. Если эта гитара ещë у тебя, то попробуй отвëрткой подкрутить звукосниматели. Ты поднимешь их выше. Звук станет более сильным. Heavy metal greetings from russia .!..!
Hello! Thank you so much for the advice and for watching. I did end up doing that, but I'm still not quite sold on the output. I'll look into it some more 😁
@@HighImpaktAudio 👌
That thing is insane I love it.
You can find them under 400 used too . Great for gigs or whatever
I love that guitar, but I can’t find it on the Thomann website why is that does anyone know ?
Hello! Unfortunately the dullahan was discontinued shortly after I made this video 😞 talk about horrible timing right?! You might be able to find one on the used market, and I have heard rumors that Harley Benton might be coming out with a new headless guitar in the future. It's just rumors for now, but we will see 😁
@@HighImpaktAudio Appreciate you answering my question! I think I’ll just grab some of the saved money and buy a strandberg!
That thing sounds beautiful!! Always wanted an ENGL
I have the fireball 25 as well and I have been super happy with both of the Engls that I've had the pleasure of playing 😁
which cab did you use for this demo?
This demo was a 50 50 blend of the Hairy Coffee IR and Scamp IR off of the Tue Madsen IR Pack from Bogren Digital
I would never use a cab sim unless I had a cab failure live and had no choice. But seriously, how likely is that? I would definitely use a load/IR box for silent practice and recording but cabs all day for live use. Thanks for the confirmation. 👍🏼
your earings look terrifying
She be THICC. Love position 2. Fuckin sick haha.
Sick dude. That sounds dope I love the Dual Rec tone. My favorite amp sound, nice and thicc. Have you seen the new Schecter 7 string with the "Tripocalypse" triple humbucker? That thing is AGGRESSIVE. I wonder what that would sound like on a Dual Rec...
Oh it's got a great thick tone doesn't it?! Haha and he'll yeah the sunset triad is sick! I actually did a review of that guitar last year. It is easily one of my favorite 7 strings I have. It's comfortable and has a ton of tonal options. A great guitar that I think should be talked about more!
@@HighImpaktAudio Oh sick! That video hasn't poppe dup for me. I'll take a look for it!
@JUSTSOPISSEDOFF haha no worries! Here's the link for it 😁 ua-cam.com/video/vt3ksxOfoGQ/v-deo.html
Is the aviator high watt? Looks like it kind of. Love Genome
Ya know it might be! I didn't even think of it. Yes the Genome is awesome! I've really enjoyed it so far! Thank you so much for watching 😁
It's pronounced Trebuchet, my dude
Ah yes! How could I be so foolish 🤣
Gunna start calling it Temuolo
This makes perfect sense to me 😆 thank you so much for watching dude!
I came for the pedals, stayed for the colors. Great video!
The colors are totally where it's at haha 😄 thank you for watching my friend!
This thing sounds amazing, the price is absolutely hard to believe too. Great demo 🤘
Hey, thank you so much for watching, and enjoying! 😁 Yeah these processors have gotten really awesome! Some of the high gain amps have the tendency to be a little thin, but some messing around with it does wonders! And the software actually works with this processor and I like it!
I was interested, but bailed after seeing him critique four distortion pedals in a row, then mispronounce “tremolo.” C’mon: What about compressors, EQs, and delay devices-things that non-metal guitarists might use? It was the narrow focus and lack of musical knowledge that changed my rating to a Thumbs Down. Maybe he got to this later, but it would also be nice to know about delivery times and service? My experience with ordering directly from China has not been good.
I only have one quest for you... who hurt you? 🤣
@@HighImpaktAudio I’m a trained musician who’s been playing for six decades. Sorry for having higher expectations from online content. Oh-get a dictionary. Look up “tremolo.” Be well!
@@HighImpaktAudio I truly appreciate your responsiveness, in the form of quickly replying. So thanks for that. Me? I’m a trained musician of six decades (as opposed to a “metal guitarist”) who demands a little more from my online content. Sorry. Seriously, check the dictionary for the pronunciation of musical terminology. Start by looking up “tremolo.” Be well!
@richardletaw4068 no need to lay out your resume of musical experience dude. I'm not hiring for a guitarist of six decades. You just got fumed over a small pronunciation mistake. I'll make sure to share with the guitar community your journey to make sure "Tremolo" is pronounced correctly. Have a great day!
That was a killer review bro
Thank you so much dude! I'm so in love with this amp it is a staple in my studio 😁 also thank you so much for watching
i just recently got the dark flame and found it is much better with a boost in front. but still not in love and was looking to get one of the other two you had here and I definitely appreciate it! I'm going rigel and I had a lot of people throwing hate at it with nothing to reference as a reason.thanks brother. curious about the preamp house also!
I just got a Dark Flame and I was a little disappointed. There is a weird high end clackiness in the tone that I had a hard time dialing out. Especially on the 6th string, which I had dropped to D. I thought there was something wrong with the string at first so I changed it, but the noise is still there. Are you hearing that too? I have a Rigel coming later this week and I’m hoping that one is a little better. 🤞🏼
@@Supernautiloid absolutely! i have found the level (volume) dial can't get above about one o clock before it gets pronounced. however, I have found that when playing at much louder volumes this seems to completely disappear. crazy, right?..... lol i believe it depends on what you are pushing it with. I'm currently running it straight into a 2500 watt pa from alto
Hey dude thank you so much for watching! I think any of these preamps can get a good high gain tone, but man the Rigel is tight, it's aggressive and just does it for me haha 😄 if you get one I hope you enjoy it!
@@dougulman6700 Hey bro, just wanted to let you know I got my Rigel in today and it sounds awesome. So much better than the Dark Flame. I’m running the Rigel into an IR loader with a Mesa cab sim and it CHUGS. I think you will be happy with it. Good luck. 👍🏼
First to change is pickups.This nickel frets if you play every day bay 1h will be dead in 8-9 months.Another thing you need to think about.And tuners.Does it is so cheep now?
I play Classis Rock and Southern Rock. I enjoy your reviews because I learn more. Even though I am 72 and have been playing guitar for over 60 years. Great review. Yup, Rigel wins. Just subscribed, too.
Hey thank you so much for enjoying my review, and also for subscribing! 😁 Even though I obviously specialize in heavy metal I try to make videos where even non metal heads can enjoy! Keep rocking!
just discoverd your video and youre creating an exepctional content , i might buy the crunch distortion its amaizing
Thank you so much for enjoying my video! The crunch pedal was definitely one of the better ones for sure. I hope you enjoy it if you end up getting one! 😁
Nice. It looks great. I really like the nightmare burst finish with the PME fretboard. Great quality video and production dude.
Hey thank you so much for the kind words and enjoying my video 😁 I have a new Balaguer coming that looks very similar to this one, but I definitely couldn't help myself on this one haha
Hey Chris, a great vid, I live vicariously through your guitar collection 🤣. That is a lovely guitar and you get a super tone from it, you must have super finger tips playing .011 - .054 but it really chugs. Awesome sound all round, excellent, cheers Will 😎
Will, it's great to hear from you! Haha I'm glad you can vicariously live through my guitar collection. One of these days I'll admit I have a problem lol. And with the 011-054 the higher gauge allows the string not to waver too much when I hit it hard keeping good tension. Always happy to hear from ya and provide awesome tones 😁
Yooooo!!! Now I need to have a snare drum made to match that color scheme lol The design in the wood on the neck is so unique!
Dude, that palemoon ebony is so cricket cool! I'm excited for the next Balaguer coming in 😉 Some drum shells with that nightmare burst would be amazing!
@@HighImpaktAudio Maybe I look into a company that does custom shells? 👀👀
That is a great pickup! The nightmare burst is very unique
The nightmare burst is so pretty I'm in love with it! And I agree, it's got great sustain, and overall has the perfect amount of output 😁
Dang this is catchy!
I've always wanted an engl. Maybe one day i'll be able to afford one.
If you get the chance they are awesome! Even the smaller lunchbox ones like this fireball. Also Synergy has an Engl module of the savage that is another great option!
Great demo. Sorry I don’t see, what amplifier are you using in this video?
No worries! I was playing through the Engl Savage module in my Synergy Syn 2 unit. With a TS 808 in front
@@HighImpaktAudio thanks, I’m also using savage module with modded Randall RM100. such a great module.❤
@@GreatGregory it's so good! The preamp modules are probably one of my favorite pieces of gear ever made haha
Does anyone play in standard tuning anymore?
Instantly a sick tone
KMise clones
Mar AV cab is magical.
Ya know I really like it as well! I'm usually not a fan of Marshall cabs, but the MAR AV just has that sound lol. Maybe it's the V30s 😅
Great job and sick sounds!
Hey John! Thanks for watching 😁 yeah this pack of IRs sound great! I was very pleased with the results
sounds great mate!
Thank you so much for watching Jamie! Yeah these IRs sounded really solid 😎
