Just Bought one Paul , was lucky enough to try one at my local store , took my cab and just used it under boot and straight into Cab 12"spk , Holy Moly kick ass ,moves air with less gain and more Volume , What a Great name Foundry , it all goes back to the Black Country .
*At **7:34**, was that the built-in IR for the DI out? That sounds like the guitar sound I’m looking for regarding recording. 🎵🏆 Thanks for making this video. I’m pretty sure you said “Straight into the DAW” but not sure. Thanks again!*
Does this pedal simulate valve sag? Other boxes like the Blackstar Amped2 do that. That's one of the main differences between solid state and valve to my ears. And it's not something you can usually tell by watching a UA-cam video, it's something you feel when you dig in with the pick and feel how the amp responds, solid state amps are always very instantaneous. Thanks.
I wouldn't know what it or isn't doing in the process all I now is there is no difference in playing this to actually playing my all tube heads. It's sounds great and feels amazing to play, I call it the bounce, and this little fecker is inspirational. Is that SAG? I don't know dude, iam I less sensitive to it? I don't know but I don't smile this much using any pug in or modeller. This thing feels great. I'd see if you can get hols of one and give it a go.
High-gain valve amps typically do not sag, as "sag" is the amp's power supply temporarily dropping the voltage at various points in the circuit which would alter the gain structure of a high-gain amp. Instead, high-gain valve amps tend to compress in the preamp such that the front of the note is lost. I say "tend to" because their are exceptions, perhaps most notably Steve Fryette's (originally VHT, now Fryette) designs.
Thanks Peter you sub is much appreciated, yeah man I like the metal but iam love and always have loved the versatile nature of the ironheart range. 🤘🧟♂️🤘
I was looking at videos of this going “dammit why does nobody demo the cab sim” and stumbled upon this lol thank you. You reckon the tones would sound this good DI at a gig?
Or better, you'd dial them I alot more than I did here. This thing is amazing man, killer tones and no hassle. Plus it's cheap as......I love that I can do this with it, then go to a rehearsal and be in the room with a loud drummer, then hit a stage with it and still be told iam to loud in stage lol 🤘🧟♂️🤘
How loud can this get? I'm worried about splashing the cash on something that can't hack it at a gig. We play loud, a Marshall 100 watt valvestate is only just loud enough. On Anderton's demo I clocked their sound meter just about get to 100 db momentarily. Thinking that's not going to cut it. Cheers.
I've played with a loud band at 5 and it was more than cutting through. Obviously without knowing how loud your drummer is I can't say for definite but dude, if he's louder than this amp pedal into a 4x12 then you need to get that dude a decaf lol 🤘🧟♂️🤘
@@PaulGlover Yeah, snare and bass drum gets mic'd up too, we're playing a few open air festivals this year, looking to lighten the load with this into a 1x12 cab with a Celestian Hot 100.
@Frank Triggs for open air shows and most, if not all club size dates this thing will be too loud for the sound guy or stage volume. If it was just this amp for big stage volume un mic'd I'd say go 4x12. But dude for rehersals it's LOUD and for gigs it's too loud for sound guys/stage volume. Hope you get sorted dude. 🤘🧟♂️🤘
@@PaulGlover I was put off when I saw Anderton's demo, as they said you had to unplug the speaker out to use the direct out. Which would be no good on stage where you need the volume behind you as well as front line.
@kiljoy3254 hahahhaha get some nice light bleed footage and add a transparency in resolve. Then put the bleed under the effect in your time line. Bingo glitch stuff. 🤘🧟♂️🤘
I think this pedal works best with either a cab or your own IR's in my opinion. The built in IR isnt great i feel it lacks some depth (from what i can hear on most videos i watched) i wish it had a better IR its a cheaper alternative then like a strymon iridium but i don't want to then pay extra cash to get an IR loader pedal haha ! anyway im done with my life story. thanks for the video !!!
Craig do you appreciate how long it takes to put videos like this together? Also I can't please every body with individual wants and desires. This comment comes across very arsey and a bit rude to be honest mate. It's a 60 watt amp so the clean will be dead clean until about 40 Watts then will start to break up. The variables in clean tones and how clean you would like them to be at your desires volume requirements are completely unknown to me so please chill and understand how hard it is to do these videos for you guys so be kind.
@@PaulGlover Life is hard. Try not to confuse brevity with rudeness. Trying to get my comment to cut through all the polite politically correct waffle is not easy. Its not difficult to determine what people want in videos like these. People want methodicalness. I can unsubscribe if you wish.
@Craig Todd Craig it not as easy as that mate, and comments can come across as c*nty without that intent. Just get frustrating sometimes man when you've spent all day producing content and you get a "this is BS" comment. Maybe iam just a sensitive flower but yeah kinda socks balls. Ps I am far from PC lol just sometime comments touch a nerve. 🤘🧟♂️🤘
Its a Great piece of equipment.specially for the Price.bought it last week for 199€
Mate it’s a complete rig or an amazing survival pack. Don’t know how we crammed it all in for the money 💰 but we did lol 🤟🏼🧟🤟🏼

Your Very Welcome and thanks for the Great content , especially the Ibanez gear demos , keep em comin

Yeah buddy that’s as it comes buddy all built in
@@PaulGloverVery much reminds me of classic thrash and industrial guitar tones. Thanks for the reply.

@@PaulGlover Same as this pedal: ua-cam.com/video/Jsjya_sWLa4/v-deo.html
@Christian right I'd say there is a compression in the IRF. It feels like my tube amp. Has alot of sparkle and will compress under heavey attack?

@@Robstafarian yes, but that’s not what I was after. I wanted a more classic rock tone.
Thanks best review yet! Subscribed. Like the clean sounds, most want to only review metal. I play bit of indie but some clean ska so ace. Thanks!
Thanks Peter you sub is much appreciated, yeah man I like the metal but iam love and always have loved the versatile nature of the ironheart range. 🤘🧟♂️🤘

Thanks for the video. Can you use the speaker out and direct out simultaneously? Thanks
Yes mate you can....its epic 🤘🧟♂️🤘
@@PaulGlover hell yeah! Thanks
@@PaulGlover I was put off when I saw Anderton's demo, as they said you had to unplug the speaker out to use the direct out. Which would be no good on stage where you need the volume behind you as well as front line.
No dude you can totally run both I've just checked again foe ya 🤘🧟♂️🤘
@@PaulGlover Thanks man for checking 👍
Would you record with this for an EP? Not a clean tone.
Yes mate it's great sounding
Out of interest what video software/effect are you using?
I use davinchi resolve and the transition effect is a glitch effect I put together using different assets. It plays Into a future project.......🤘🧟♂️🤘
@@PaulGlover thanks Paul... Glitch was the word I was after. So it’s like your signature effect? Hmm... I want to steal it 👍🏻😎
@kiljoy3254 hahahhaha get some nice light bleed footage and add a transparency in resolve. Then put the bleed under the effect in your time line. Bingo glitch stuff. 🤘🧟♂️🤘
@@PaulGlover 😎 Thank yoy
What’s the noise in the playing breaks?
Me just getting noise from my lights. If I move away it goes, it's not the pedal. 🤘🧟♂️🤘
I think this pedal works best with either a cab or your own IR's in my opinion. The built in IR isnt great i feel it lacks some depth (from what i can hear on most videos i watched) i wish it had a better IR its a cheaper alternative then like a strymon iridium but i don't want to then pay extra cash to get an IR loader pedal haha ! anyway im done with my life story. thanks for the video !!!
Yeah man, I have had some killer tones with the internal cab but I do tend to boost the top end. With IRs iam good to go allways. 🤘🧟♂️🤘
8:20 If you really need THAT much gain it’s probably best to use an actual amp or run the pedal through a cab.
What a tone though, made me smile the minute it came on lol 😆
LETS hear how loud the clean can go. Dont give us 10 seconds of clean then switch the boost on.
