Shame you didn't use the same IR for each one, also would be good to hear the same riff being played for each amp. It's a bit difficult to judge the amps themselves with so many variables. That being said Crown and Rvxx sounded huge, as expected. They are my favs together with Sigma but you could have dialed it in a bit better imo - for me the secret is to turn down the focus knob to about 2-3. I'm hoping for a follow up video, you have my sub mate!
Thanks for watching! I actually tried doing one riff through each amp but honestly, it seemed pretty boring to me. There's the same guitar and chugs in each one so I think people can get the vibe. If you're an Audio Assault user (which it seems you are) you can download the presets and try them out!
@@visionswords5477 I'm actually preparing a huge 1:1 comparison of about 40 ampsims so I don't know if calling 6 repeats boring was what I needed to hear lmaooo
@@visionswords5477 What Oskar said is 100% correcto! Should have had the same riff at all times! For example this riff 2:00 is completely different than this 1:15, so it's really hard to make a proper comparison! 😭 Sure, we can get "a vibe", but we CAN'T make a proper conclusion! And if u think 1 min comparison segment with 1 riff would have been boring, then... well, I'm not a doctor, but I'm pretty sure u got ADHD! 😅🙈
@@MaximusAdonicus If three more people complain I will make the next video longer 🤣(You can also download the presets and compare to your heart's content!)
The Crown, Sigma, and AHM all really stood out to me. The Dominator was kinda interesting compared to the RVXX and the Bulldozer, but for the most part overall amps A, B, and C were all interchangeable and very similar; extremely generic, blah and mid sounding. Those D, E, and F amps were the *chef's kiss* FWIW, I know those are three amps I like the sound of, IRL, so the fact the sims of these amps were appealing to me isn't a surprise. Tube and transistor/red LED solid state amps all sound like variations on a theme, depending on the tone stack, so anyone who thinks they can tell apart anything but truly ICONIC amps, remind me to avoid what you've been smoking. Like, Orange Rockerverbs, 1960/JTM45 Plexi, JCM800, MKII/III, Triple Crown, Badlander, Dual Rectifier, SLO, you likely can tell these by ear. Anything else, and I call BS, especially since boost/OD choices and settings can muddy those waters real quick. EVH 5150 III, the 5150 Iconic, and the whole Peavey 5150/6505/Invective/XXX/JSX line all sound VERY similar, even if they all sound amazing, especially the 6534+, 5150 III EL34, 5150 Iconic, and The Invective (the clean channel on that amp - UNF), as they sound slightly different than the rest of the James Brown designed "inspired by the SLO" amps line and their derivatives.
Currently using Berry Amp from Audio Assault. Stand Alone sounds great (Very little latency) but when I try to use Berry amp in my Daw there's tons of latency, especially when recording:( any tips?
You want to look at the buffer size in your DAW and whether or not you are using any plugins in the session that use too much CPU. Try lowering your buffer size to 128 (some people go as low as 64).
@@visionswords5477 Thanks so much! You helped me figure out what was wrong with the latency. Now I found my sweetspot for my buffer size which is like 90 Also, changed my audio driver to ASIO. Man, what a game changer! Can finally get to recording!

The crown is my fave even in a blind shootout :D yeah man .. the more possibilities and options the more distractions ..
Thanks for listening! It seems like the Crown is universally liked.
I don't know about the amps (they all sounded good) but i have to say the riffs were all sick..
I appreciate this! 🙏
I should absolutely seek help lol great video!!
If you find a good place for treatment, let me know lol
I liked C best followed by D.
