@@LeoGibsonGtr Keep it up! We need more people like you reviewing gear with your level of musical skill and technical (gear related) ability/knowledge.

I bought this to use on my fly rig. It is exceptional value for the money. Dual out is great for gigging. It has a fantastic clean, just like the JTM 45. As I own a JTM 45, I can say it sounds very close to the real thing. Great value for £129. Fantastic vid. Looking forward to Pedal vs Amp demo 👍
Hi Leo. I know this is at least a year old, but now TC has the JCM 800 and even the 5150 and a rectifier models as well. I would like to see you do a review of the 800 and the rectifier someday as a suggestion kind sir. ❤ Best regards. Tim...
Thank you Leo! Great playing and great demo as always. The price on this pedal is great but for me I would have to add an IR loader pedal too. Still, very interesting.
Thank you so much!!! You are right....actually the missing IR loader is a weakens.....I forgot to mention it in the video. Thank you for highlighting it!
Hi Leo. I understand a lot of people wanting a dedicated XLR for longer cable runs, but both outputs are actually balanced, so if you use a TRS jack cable you will get the same rejection of common mode noise as with an XLR cable :-) /Lars
@@qddk9545, no, unfortunately not. The IR loader is not balanced, but more like the TonePrint mini pedals. I agree that an IR loader could benefit from having balanced output, but this one does not have that.
Hi, I don't think so...If TC send me one, I will be happy to review it...but unfortunately I can't buy all these pedals. Thank you for your interest in the channel!
Is there a place where I can buy your album digitally, I feel probably owe you some money- love your stuff. I got a gt1000 recently with help from your videos and I absolutely bloody love it.

I'm interested in getting a pedal from this series to use at the beginning of my chain in my Sentry Noise Gate effects loop (followed by time-based effects after the gate). Does this seem like a reasonable use case?
Ciao Leo, sempre esaustivo nei tuoi video! Attendevo l'ingresso di TC electronics nel campo delle simulazioni di ampli dai tempi del Nova System! Speravo in una unità completa, ovvero un Nova System con sim di ampli ed IR, speriamo in futuro....🤣. Mi interesserebbe una unità di questo tipo da abbinare ad un NUX Cerberus, che uso come spare. Ho avuto l'Amp Academy, ben suonante, ma trovavo il software tremendo, volume dell'uscita Xlr ingestibile, flessibilità nulla nello switching dei canali, magari bastava attendere qualche aggiornamento software, ma l'ho venduto velocemente, senza rimpianto. Non ho capito se questo TC ha la possibilità di caricare Ir di terze parti (le tue....). Vero che si può intervenire in post sulla Daw sfruttando l'uscita diretta, però se fosse possibile modificare le IR......sarebbe buona cosa. Sto altresì pensando se è il caso di implementare il Cerberus con un amp sim (e a quel punto un compressore). Certo che considerando la spesa di queste due cose e vendendo il Cerberus, aggiungendo qualche cos'altro potrei andare sul Trident o su Me90! Dura la vita del chitarraio da salotto, ci sono troppe cose interessanti in giro!
Ciao, grazie, sono contento che apprezzi i video. Se non ricordo male, non è possible caricare IR personali in queste unità...in effetti penso che se ci accoppi un IR loader, il prezzo lievita ed a quel punto meglio andare su una pedaliera multieffetto...dove hai molto di più: hai più simulazioni di ampli, più effetti etc. Grazie ancora!
Hi, sorry for late answering.... Well, it's hard to answer....I would say that I'm more used to the Boss tone and therefor I have a slight preference towards the Boss...but it's just a personal opinion / preference... Thank you!
Hi Leo, I like very much your work. I just bought recently a Rodenberg BLDeluxe Overdrive, similar in my opinion with JIMS45, if you want, I can send it to you to support you for a larger range comparison of devices
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like my videos!!!! Thank you also for your offer, but I don't want you to take so much effort on your side. Thank you!
Leo, great video, but how does it sound in the room? Is it a credible Marshall? or does it sound like someone that never played a Marshall would describe a Marshall? What are your impressions on the sound and the feel?
With my real Plexi and an SM 57 I can get a pro sound in any pro studio and on stage. What I want to know is not features and the subjective preference for or against this pedals sound. I simply want to know if it is truly a pro sound of do I need something like the ToneX to get that.
Hi Leo.. Great demo.. I love the idea of one good amp model pedal that one can go direct with.. Have you tried the newest 3 of these pedals from TC? The high gain models? I'm really interested in their 800 model which also has a mod amp like extra gain stage or extra gain. I never liked just stock 800's because they never had enough gain, and the same for the amp you're doing this video for. Leo, sir, your playing is so awesome.. You have the best legatto and just overall playing sir. Really great, and you write really well too, and if you are doing all your own recording and mixing you are a maestro sir! I really mean that.. Just killer playing sir.. You should be touring! I know you're on vacation, and I apologize for writing so much, but I had to tell you how good your video's are and your playing is.. Be well sir and be safe. Regards from the heartland. South Central Indiana. USA Tim
Thank you so much Tim! Actually I have not tried the new high gain pedals....they are pretty interesting, and if TC would send some units to test I would be happy to try them out...as I can't afford to buy all these units myself... Thank you so much for such great compliments Tim, really appreciated...yes, I'm doing everything by my own...and it takes a lot of time, but comments of appreciation like yours, really push me forward to try to make more and better!!! Thank you so much....from Ponza / Italy! Leo
@@LeoGibsonGtr Hi Leo.. I totally understand that you can't buy all these pedals yourself. Maybe we'll get lucky and they will send them to you sir! I hope your vacation / holidays are going well and you're having fun!
When I was in high school during the 1970's, I found a used 68 Marshall JTM 45 head and cab for $450 USD. It sounded amazing and my high school band ended up working a lot. I sold it for a Boogie. Smaller yes, but nothing sounds like the JTM45, especially from the 60's. I so wish I had that amp back...
AMT preamps for a long time use this design with separate outputs for DI and for use into amp return. Since they can be used simultaneously, ( I guess this unit allows it too), it is handy if you throw signal to a mixer, and at the same time monitor yourself through an amp. At a live gig, for example. P.S. Dammit typed before you said same thing.
To me personally, the NuX Amp Academy makes much more sense instead of the Ampworx series (& for value/versatility/great sounding/features' ratio, the Amp Academy is even better than the Strymon Iridium). The Amp Academy is just a little bit higher priced than the Ampworx . Whatever it is, this is just my personal opinion. Btw, i have been using the NuX Amp Academy for the past 6 months & are really, really happy with it.
Btw Mr Leo, u are one of my most favourite UA-cam guitarist. Yr playing skill is absolutely outstanding.... plus yr style of reviews are really practical & really makes sense. I hope u could do a sort of in depth shootout between the Ampworx against the NuX Amp Acadmey & the Strymon Iridium.. Fyi, i don't really care if an "amp in a box" sounds almost like the real thing... I only care if it sounds great (sounding almost like the real thing is just a bonus for me), feels good under the fingers & takes external pedals (especially drive pedals) very well, and for that, the NuX Amp Academy are exceptional in all of those 3 cases. Again, its just my 2 cents... 😊
Thank you so much for such an amazing compliment and for sharing your thought! Yes, at the end...if a unit sounds good...it's good...even if not 100% = to the real deal... Thank you!
€160 for a single preamp pedal can no longer be justified, when you can buy an entry-level multi-effect modeling pedal with dozens of amp sims and effects for less. Plus, a Hotone Nano Legacy Purple Wind costs half of that price and can drive a speaker cabinet. A Joyo British Sound or Caline Baker Street is a quarter of that price.

Great as allways! Amazing how your demo songs are allways so good! And the playing!

Fantastic playing as ever!
Thank you sooooo much, I'm really happy that you like the playing!!!
Great demo song and an interesting, good sounding pedal. God bless and rock on 🎸😎👍
Thank you sooo much and God bless you too!!!
Great Demo.. I love the tone. This one will clean up and then still rock without going over the top. I prefer this to the Jims 800.

Hi, good point...I've checked out the user manual and you are right, the outputs are balanced via TRS cable.
Thank you!
Does the count for your IR Loader too?
@@qddk9545, no, unfortunately not.
The IR loader is not balanced, but more like the TonePrint mini pedals.
I agree that an IR loader could benefit from having balanced output, but this one does not have that.

@9:44 Does the boost comes with delay? or an added delay pedal in the effects loop?
Hi, it's the waves H-Delay loaded in Cubase.

@@LeoGibsonGtr Thank you for your videos!

Did you measure the latency without the cab sim? I LOVE the preamp but the Cab Sim is not my favorite. So my thought was to use ony the preamp.
Hi, I think I measured it only with the cab sim on....
@@LeoGibsonGtr thank you, I've just measured myself and there are only 4ms difference between the signal with and without cam sim :)
Thank you for sharing!
nice, how do you get all those amps? what you do for living?
His studio set up is even crazier actually….. 😂

in your opinion, do you prefer this or ir-2 based on marshall tone alone?

Well, it's hard to answer....I would say that I'm more used to the Boss tone and therefor I have a slight preference towards the Boss...but it's just a personal opinion / preference...

I think you use preamp or booster before jims45.. do you ?
Yes, exactly.
Dear Leo, thank you very much!
Hope will see your lesson about legato)
You are welcome!
Yes....I should do a video about legato...you are right!
Great review, as always. Can't help but compare it to the NUX Amp Academy and i feel that pedal is a better bargain than this one from TCE.
