      Awesome video! As someone who loves to use preamp pedals straight into my audio interface, the next logical step would be a video explaining how to make a Cab IR with a power amp's sonic characteristics.
      I recently started doing that , but not with real power amps, just with the power section of some of the Brainworx amp plugins, like the VH4.
      I run a short burst of pink noise through the plugin activating only the power section and bounce that. I then load it into an IR loader where you can have IRs in series, like the MixIR3 from RedWirez, put a regular IR after it and export that into a new IR file!
      Other plugins that have separate Power amp sections are the Mercuriall plugins, which sound amazing - and actually have a good Cab sim! There's also the TPA1 power amp plugin from Ignite Amps!
      One of the only IR companies that i know that makes IRs with tube power amp signals baked into them are Kalthallen. They make REALLY beefy IRs and they sound incredible

    it's a method I often make use of often but simply use a few Two Notes C.A.B. boxes and a few of the dinky yet great Mooer RADAR boxes which take care of the mic'd speaker cab impulse response real-time convolving as well as both featuring power amp modelling which is very useful for turning practically any distortion or other gain-based pedal into a preamp, The Revv G3 is an ideal pedal in the role of a preamp as it nails tight yet crushing modern high-gain sounds with ease as that is what it was built to do. I have a loop switcher with various distortion pedals which get rotated often but the REVV G3 has always stayed, currently have an AmpTweaker TightMetal Pro, Line 6 Uber Metal, Digitech Hardwire TL-2, EHX Nano Metal Muff as its a newish toy, Victory VH4 the Kraken preamp pedal, a DOD Grunge distortion which I get a nice grindcore-suitable high-gain sound from that old beast (the original though, the Digitech variant doesn't sound/feel the same), a Bogner Extasy red channel pedal as well as an EHX IC Big Muff, Boss FZ-2 Hyper Fuzz along with a second Line 6 Uber Metal which feeds into a long discontinued MXR "Hendrix Fuzz System" which isn't used for the fuzz but rather for that horrific foldback octave part of the circuit which with a tight, carved & contoured filth box like the Uber Metal is easily dialled in as this enables me to nail a more responsive but every bit as horrible sounding OTT distorted octave fuzz sound.
    The main reason being I am very short on physical space therefore I can't use a good chunk of my gear, mainly amp heads & cabs as I usually would which basically forced me to start meddling around to make up for missing out on certain goto sound...I got them available now even though they might not be 1 for 1 identical.
    The TORPEDO C.A.B.s and RADARs do still get used even with a multi-mic'd amp and cab as well as a DI as it offers me more options/versatility to track with & then when it comes time to mix things down, I have the same type of variety to mix and match thanks to pedals acting as preamplifiers.
    All the best as always sOLAr fella, some fine sounds as you always achieve and best to all too, cheers!

    I'm using a Victory V4 The Kraken for this stuff and it's great. You can get at least Nadir from Ignite for free, it can load 2 IRs at a time. For a little more powerful IR loader Ugritone TrveCab is like 5€ at the moment and it can load up to 8 IRs at the same time, so you can blend IRs for different cabs, mics and mic placements.

    • @OlaEnglund
      @OlaEnglund  3 роки тому +67

      sure thing you would want that! Just remember that some if not most impulses are made through a power amp already. But that's the beauty of life right there, there are no rules.

    • @peterrovaniemi138
      @peterrovaniemi138 3 роки тому +10

      ​@@OlaEnglund True that, the only rule should be your own taste.
      The poweramps in IRs are often so transparent that adding in a poweramp before them that does add color to the sound a bit does help some pedals though. And for example the Be-Od IMO sound way better through clean channels that direct (a good clean clean-channel that is).
      great video btw!

    • @nairanvac79
      @nairanvac79 3 роки тому +9

      Recording an impulse response through a power amp does not reproduce the whole effect of the power amp.
      An impulse response is a very fancy EQ filter. The famous desirable effect of a power amp is more like compression than EQ. Impulse responses can't capture the compression effects produced by the power amp.
      It's still worth trying a power amp sim or any gentle tube saturation plugin before the impulse response. In the context of metal rhythm guitars, the compression is less likely to be desirable, but it's great for anything that needs a little more squish, like a spiky lead guitar.

Distortion pedals are pretty much just preamps, and using multiple pedals like an hm-2 into an mt-2 (with the mt-2’s gain set pretty low to act like a crunch channel, or even turned up some) , or even a tube screamer into an mt-2 with the gain turned up a bit you’ll get good results.

    • @WarmothGuitarist
      @WarmothGuitarist 3 роки тому

      That's because pedals back then were all instrument level output, and the Tascam had instrument level inputs.
      I was doing the same thing, but the IRs today make a world of difference.

    you can emulate tube sag by adding compression between the input and IR. also makes it easier to get a cleaner sound from turning the guitar volume down like on a single channel amp

      Or probably just a clean and flat boost with little drive.
      Power amp tone section is just that after all... Sometimes part of the tonestack goes there (like presence), but that's it.

    You know what, Ola... I agree with your comment. Few years ago, I let go ALL my amps: Marshall, Randall, Fender, and Peavey. I was so so so tired hauling amps to every gig and rehearsal. I'm so glad, companies made better pedals. Most of the times, my pedals sound way better than my regular amps. lol.

  • @gabormata6029
    @gabormata6029 3 роки тому +1

    I feel like you could put the Guv'nor there too. It's probably not the "metal" tone, but it's still a hard clipping distortion which could be used for some grampa heavy metal

    Hey Ola! Awesome video! Have you ever considered testing cheap amplifiers like the Marshall MG100 FX for the Will It Chug series? I think ti would be great to see their real capabilities. Keep rocking man!

      Wayne Static swore by those MG100s. It was my first half stack back in the early 2000s. Did the job for a tone ignorant 16 year old in a metal band. Sounded horrible when turned up to full volume I remember though.
