I love my OX Box. And one thing a lot folks fail to point out is that by going through the plethora of different cabinets and mic’ings that come preinstalled you essentially turn your one amp into a world of different amps for recording. It’s such a fantastic tool for the tone journey. And the Plate Reverb and Delay and EQ…..
I’m 42. Been gigging since 1999. I’m glad I got to make so many funny mistakes along the way, learning the way of the musician. I even ran a 60 watt deville and a metal zone back then thinking it was the sound every body loved
This is a very inspiring tone. I need to understand what all I need to connect out of the OX box to hear it in the room. Someday I'd love to see a video of the signal chain out of the OX.
Either one (mono) or two (stereo) TRS cables into the back of either a preamp or your audio interface. -OR- You can run an optical cable out of the OX into the optical in of your UA Apollo. I’m not sure what other desktop interfaces have optical in on the back. I’m running the optical cable btw
Another great video. Consistently useful content. Love your demeanor. Got my 76 DR in 93. Hard to believe for some but no one wanted these amps for a couple decades. Best amp for most people especially with a 335.
Great advice...keep the amps. Get The ox. Amps dont become obsolete....modelers do....ask me if I still have my gen 1 pod and Floorboard. Another alternative: spend some coin on 5 watt vintage tube amps. My favorites for this application are my '55 and '58 Tweed Princetons. I replaced the 8" speaker and baffle boards (via Mojotone) with a 10" P10R. Crank to 10 in the room and modulate with guitar volume. Wont work in an apt. but certianly in a house...with spousal permission. Also, Uncle Larry talks about the perfect stage tone being a Tweed Deluxe and a Deluxe Reverb. Scale that down to a Tweed Princeton and a Princeton reverb. It's heaven and will never become obsolete.
If y’all have a bunch of amps and an Ox.. check out the de Lisle 7x7 amp/cab switch with an attenuator loop. Works incredibly well! You can route any one at a time into the Ox, any cab to the Ox (if you want to use real speakers) as well as running differently physical speakers you may have to another amp, or in parallel. They have ones with few inputs too.
Had the OX Box 2 years ago. Sold it. Bought the Fryette Powerstation. In my opinion the attenuation and the sound are more natural. I mic the cabinet even at lower volume. If i have to play at night without any volume, i bought the BluBox with 16 IR´s. Use 3 of them depending on the amp. Very happy with this combination ✌🏻
My problem is my favorite speakers (greenback and alnico blue varieties) have their own inherent breakup that attenuation or power scaling messes up. This is my one complaint with the power scaling in my Lazy J-it doesn’t sound right super low because the speaker doesn’t respond correctly. I actually prefer the modeling of a speaker doing the work it’s supposed to vs a real speaker with such low volume coming out of it that it’s not pushed at all. If you’re an EVM12L guy, this probably isn’t a problem.
Cranking up a nice little tube amp is just so much fun. I would definitely recommend people even go smaller than the Deluxe Reverb. The old Silvertone amps were used by people like Jimmy Page in the studio too. Great video and advice Justin!
Not long ago, I got a Laney Cub 10 (the first version of the amp) and I absolutely love it. Inexpensive, really light weight, takes pedals super well and even the 10" speaker it came with sounds really good too.
Wow! I’ve been literally consuming this channel for a week straight and sending links to friends… Last night I threw on a country album! What are you doing to me Justin.
I’ve got a Carvin X100B I bought new in the early 80’s and have been looking for a way to play it at lower volumes. It does have the 25%, 50% selector switch on the back which does reduce the volume but it seems to lose character and it’s still way too loud. Love your videos Justin. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. God Bless!
These things are really nice for recording...sucks that a good attenuator always costs a fortune. The cheap ones just don't cut it. Glad I have chance to maybe be lucky enough thanks to Justin! But I'm also blessed to have a room where I can crank any amp. just need to protect the ears, haha :D!
I haven’t. I generally don’t like how attenuators work with speakers that are supposed to break up (greenback varieties, alnico, etc) but can’t due to the quieter level being pushed through them
The WGS Invader 50 you mentioned is an awesome speaker. I took the V30 out of my orange 1x12 extension cab and replaced it with he Invader and it sounds incredible
Please do a video on getting great tones live with or without ox. Always have great tone at home, but never satisfied with sound playing out. Cool video
I’ve used a torpedo live for few years. Absolutely love it. Completely quiet night time recording in my house. It’s great because I enjoy the format of having a tube amp (knobs as opposed to menus) and using pedals and whatnot. Always wondered if there was any sound differences sound wise with the OX box.
@@JustinOstrander I'd concur. I've been directly comparing with my amp plugged into the Captor X and the OX in the same studio and for the type of tones I'm into the OX is just better. A friend just purchased a BOSS Tube Amp expander which he's very happy with but it looks to have too many options for me. I tend to suffer from option paralysis!
That Deluxe sounds awesome! Which cab and mics did you use in the OX? And are you running yours in stereo or panned to one output in mono? Thanks for these great videos!
Mono. That info is in the video, but I should have it in the description, too. 57/Beyer 160 on the fender deluxe reverb lookin 112 cab. The reverb is from my deluxe reverb tank.
My Brother had a Hot Rod Devile With 4,10 inch speakers 60 watt! That Amp was extremely loud I couldn’t turn up past 4 . Its was an Awesome amp! It would rattle the windows in his house
Hi Justin love your show. I’ve been using an OX box for years. I have been looking for home studio equipment what do you use? It sounds great on UA-cam. Thank you
I can. and I do. I have an attenuator, but it's still new in the box. No neighbors close by, and I have earplugs, and I know to stand off axis. 😁 I like Marshalls mostly; I like to get my power amp hot, at least 7 on MV amps; I have a 1959x full stack that I run loud and near full volume to get that saturation, and few other 100W tube amps...and a '76 Fender Super Twin with 180W of 6 x 6L6 power. No point in having 40W+ tube amps if you can't get the power section working hot and loud. IMO. Plenty of low watt tube amps and pedals for that. I also don't use boosts or drive pedals; I sometimes use an EQ pedal for a lead tone in my single channel amps, but mostly guitar direct into the amp. I also have modelers and software plugins, but the big tube amps are all about the experience not just the sound for me.
Dude, get that attenuator out and give it a shot. With all due respect, you could be standing in the sweet spot, about 12-20 feet away from your cab. Maybe without ear plugs. Different experience but a good one. Still loud. EQ the amp to compensate for any coloration from attenuating. With the Fryette Power Station, I can't tell any difference in the attenuated tone, and you get a clean tube power amp with fx loop. For recording with attenuators, all line outputs are not created equal. Of course, Justin is right about the OX box. They are badass. So are the UAD pedals. They do alot more with the emulation options.
I feel so stupid. I’m 56 years old and I started playing the guitar when I was almost 13. I think I was 16, maybe 17, when I bought an old beaten up, but amazing sounding AC30TB with Celestion 1088’s. A year later I bought another old amp. This time it was a Fender Twin Reverb. Through the years I mainly played and bought Vox amps and Marshall amps. I particularly loved my first and oldest AC30TB. But I couldn’t get along with the Twin Reverb, for various reasons. Here comes the stupid part. Because I thought that all Fender amps basically sounded the same (clean and mid scooped) I sold the amp after a few years and I never looked back, nor did I ever tried other Fender amps again. Believe it or not, but it was only 5 or 6 years ago, when I started to watch music related content on UA-cam, that I understood I missed out on something beautiful. I would kill for a good Deluxe Reverb. My Vox amps were stolen 10 years ago. I sold all my Marshalls. I play through a Morgan AC20 nowadays and I have a small Supro amp and that’s okay with me. Actually, I’m more than just okay. But every now and then I still wish I could score a good Deluxe Reverb. 😊
Love the vids ! What's your 2 cents on attenuators? I'm more of a gigging side guy than a session player and I find that my Toneking works best cranked obviously. All I have to do is use the attenuator to fit the room. Peace ✌️
If you are serious about your tone, you should buy an Aracom PRX 150. It’ll cost you a kidney and it’s a heavy beast. But it obliterates every other attenuator. I’m using a Bartel amp most of the time. It’s master volume it’s like no other - no attenuator needed.
Justin, I own an OX and have used it and it sounds great. Question. I’m use to using two amps LIVE. Do you ever record using two amps? If yes, how do you do that with the OX? Of course buy two. Or do you just use the stereo L/R in the DAW?
This is a wildwood spec R5. I put Throbak P90s in it. The only P90s I like more than the Gibsons that came in it. There’s a link to the set I use in my description.
You know what? Maybe it’s just me, but I prefer master volume amp distortion over using a pedal or a modeler. I’ve never been able to crank a big clean tube amp into distortion. The small amps cranked by yourself just doesn’t do it for me even though it’s still miles ahead of pedals/modelers, but pre amp distortion works just fine for me. I’ve never tried to record though. I’m sure everyone records small cranked tube amps for a reason, but I dont record lol.
No. I have never liked attenuators. I am a greenback and alnico blue guy. Those speakers add their own breakup in a really cool way. Well, when you “turn down” the amp’s power, you lose all the benefits of the speakers doing their thing. This is what I don’t like about my Lazy J’s power scaling. It just feels wrong down past halfway because that speaker-which wants to break up so badly and add its character to the sound-stays weirdly clean. I’d rather hear a modeled speaker/cab/mic honestly. If you’re an EVM12L guy, it probably isn’t a problem.
One thing I like to do at home is cranking the volume on my 5 watt tube amp and use a drive pedal with the level turned down to attenuat the amp so that the cops aren't knocking on the door lol
I know this is a dumb question but if the box replaces my speaker where the hell is my sound coming from??? My computer monitors? This is something Ive been perplexed by for a while now. Somebody help me on this one!
@@JustinOstrander That's what I was thinking but just wasn't sure. Kind of like these great tones guys get from modelers but they never say what it's coming out of.

I agree about protection for your hearing but I want to hear my speaker cab. Without that what fun would playing guitar be ? Yeah for recording ok but I'm not for muting speakers so I can hear a diminished volume thru PC speakers

This is great! It would be awesome if you could show ideal tone settings for a Vox ac30 and Marshall plexi style
Cool tips, and thanks for the drawing!
Hey Justin have you ever thought about making some modeler presets? Just like a Nashville package rock, blues, Broadway etc.
For pedals like the HX, yeah I’ve thought about it
I've been using the OX a bunch in a small studio here. I was really suprised how comfortable I was with it. I would LOVE my own.

I’ve honestly never used an attenuator. I have power scaling on my Lazy J. It’s not bad
If you are serious about your tone, you should buy an Aracom PRX 150. It’ll cost you a kidney and it’s a heavy beast. But it obliterates every other attenuator.

But what guitar is that?!?!?!?! Is it a reissue - never seen a '54 that clean.
This is a wildwood spec R5. I put Throbak P90s in it. The only P90s I like more than the Gibsons that came in it. There’s a link to the set I use in my description.
When you use this with the ox ,do you use some sort of extension cable from the amp to the ox.
Just a standard speaker cable. Mine is a 6ft planet waves
what a sound in that gold top , what pickups do you have on it ???
Throbaks. There’s a link in my description.
You know what? Maybe it’s just me, but I prefer master volume amp distortion over using a pedal or a modeler. I’ve never been able to crank a big clean tube amp into distortion.

I know this is an Ox Box video, I assume you can do the same thing with the Two Note Captor X??
I would assume so. I have the two notes torpedo live. It sounds good but I stopped using it when I got the Ox
man that LP-P90 tone cranked through a deluxe is a chub-producer
So how does it sound used as an attenuator. Anywhere close to that tone?
No. I have never liked attenuators. I am a greenback and alnico blue guy. Those speakers add their own breakup in a really cool way. Well, when you “turn down” the amp’s power, you lose all the benefits of the speakers doing their thing. This is what I don’t like about my Lazy J’s power scaling.

I have a Revv D20 with the built in Torpedo. When you run yours do you use the built in IR's or aftermarket ones?
I have never bothered to run different IRs in the D20. Revv developed the ones that came with it specifically for that amp.
How common is it for people to use an OX box at a live gig? Or is it just for studio work?
It’s very common. Some of my friends in the touring world have been using some form of modeling or another for several years.
