Which of the 4 amps were your favorites through the ENGL 4x12 XXL?
The ENGL and the Red for sure
Red Velvet and any Orange lml
ENGL amp with an ENGL cab is just magic.
Sounds really great. ENGL gears can not make any disappointment. I am also amazed of such a great tone recorded only one SM57. I thought great sounds come from blend of different mics, say a dynamic and a condenser. From the amps I preferred the ENGL and the Victory. Anyway everything sounds great from you :)
I just got this cab today and it’s the heaviest cab I’ve ever lifted.
I love ENGL cabs. My favorite IR is a Ownhammer ENGL. I must say your cab sound huge. Maybe you should make a comparative video of this cab and ENGL IRs.
Welcome to the cab in studio rabbit hole! For heavy tones, other speakers I love to blend with the V30 are the Cream Alnico and the Eminence DV77 (Mick Thomson's signature). As for mics, I always put a Beyerdynamic 160 along with the SM57 - which complements it very nicely, adding depth and bottom end - usually on the Cream Alnico speaker. That pairing is my bread and butter, but also I've been enjoying adding a Lewitt DM440 on the DV77 to that mix.
Also, mic preamps can have a significant difference, and I really enjoy my Art Pro MPA II, cranking the gain while dialing back the output volume to appropriate levels to get some nice warmth and saturation.
Hmm driving the mic input is something that ir's cannot do... Interesting, I have to try that
Sounds KILLER, especial the Mastering I've got everything cranked, and I'm getting no speaker distortion 😎 CLEAN and LOUD 🍻🤘
The Engl 4x12 is the only OwnHammer IR pack I bought. Ended up being the only on I need.
This vs the Mesa XXL would be interesting from your perspective!
If Mesa sends it to me I'd do it but they won't and I don't have room anyway 😅
FWIW My Engl 2x12 sounds bassier in a good way than my Mesa 4x12 OS
@moonelfcosmo do you have the horizontal or vertical 2x12?
The best modern metal guitar tone I ever heard came from an XXL cab with a KSR Artemis. It just blew my mind how good it sounded.
Damn dude ... It's that good so I can't get enough of it even though I own an Engl amp and a cab...
sounds great!! its getting close to my custom built 212 with american made warehouse speakers....😁😁
I have the cab and run my Fireball 100 through it. This cab is the best cab I have ever owned. The low end is just insane.
This one personally was the Kraken cuz I love a super tight and modern tone in drop A. They all sound great tho as always! I need to grab another Kraken preamp pedal
A monster cab for your monster tones! Awesome!!
Sounds killer
You've never had such a good sound 🔥 it still sounds more real and dynamic to my ears than the iR's
Greetings from Germany 🤘
I think IRs can replicate the sound of a mic'ed cab perfectly. I'm still planning on demonstrating that soon on the channel. However, this cab does sound awesome!
Cabs for the win!
That guitar is fu**ing beautiful. Thanks for your content man. You are getting me back into playing again. 🤟🏻
Thank you! Do you mean the Schecter? It's awesome
@@SonicDriveStudio yes sir. Trying to figure out what new amp to get . Got 2 old 1984 American made Kramers with EMG 81’s .
Sounds huge, It was already on my list, but now I´m even more eager to get one 🤘🤘
Probably the most bad ass cab on the planet at the moment. 🥰
I think you covered this is past videos, but how would you compare playing with amp in to IR's compared to playing in this cab?
Obviously a cab in the room is different and louder than IRs (or a mic'ed cab) through monitors
That first tone had some Alexi feel to it.
I have the regular Engl 412 pro but mine is from early 2003 so I got those sPeCiAl v30’s everyone raves about I guess. But the cab is just SO BRIGHT. I do love my cab but I wish I had the xxl. The problem there is, if I’m gonna purchase another cab I’m going to be getting the golden EVH 412 to match my head. It does sound incredible and I would want to leave the speakers stock as I enjoy them. They’re just so expensive these days.
Someone who I know who also has one of the XXLs said his is also so bright but mine is so thick and full sounding, depending on where you place the mic of course
Such a killer cab! Sounds great with soldano!
Yeah cool video and amazing sound as always, but it's just as cool with recto? Thanks!🤘
A video on that soon but yes, it sounds great with a Recto! ;)
It sound soo mean in the room. Nice.
running and jumping - is very cool
excellent cab indeed, sounds great with the red seven, anything peavey is also a great match with those cabs
Recoding mic'd cab is surprisingly easy. The hardest part is hearing the track you're trying to play along with. Ends up being a volume battle between the amp and monitors. With my poor ears in the middle.
Yeah, that's one of the reasons why this still won't be my main way of doing things
You may be surprised what a good recorded sound you can get without the cab being pushed super hard. I’ve had great luck with recording low to mid volume tones.
@@moonelfcosmo This was relatively low. There's a noise floor issue to deal with on volume as well. If you're in a small room it's gonna be loud. If you can't have like 85db just use an IR
Use IEMs
@@djabthrash I have a spare bed room I use now. I just bought long speaker cable and microphone cable. Works great.
Nice to hear real cab micd up on your channel man , great tones !
Sounds crushing!
Sound so good !!
Nice video and really nice sound as usual. I would say that the tone feels a bit distant and "ambiant" for my taste with every amp. I like it more direct and in your face. I don't really now the reason tho (mic placement ? mids ? boost ?). Thank you anyway !
SO Cool on in your intro part! :)
Dude this video is amazing also I have a very special request can you do a korn tone tutorial on a peavey 6505 please🙏🏼
Dang now I gotta get this 50kg cab
A bandmate had this one. Sounded great, but gigging with this monster was a pain in the a$$😂
when i play my dark amps into my engl pro-
B ,,,,, ho jesus ok makes sence now . especially vx100. great great cabinet the pro-B or xxl. love my marshalls mode four and tv . i also copy the sound dampening they use on engls cabs , my custom cab 2x12 is one of a cab{if you skilled, built your own} dont know if the sound dampening worked but what a cab.
every amp have a cab,
So far every single amp that I've tried with this cab has sounded amazing! This cab has all amps ;)
Try it with the 9 string arg...
I have it, well, only on my Two Notes Wall Of Sound plugin Cabs 😅
wow! that was awesome, I loved the Red seven and The Engl SE. are you using ML drums? Man that was really good! THanks for sharing!
Thanks! Yeah, ML Drums!
Do you know if there are any IRs from this cabinet? Would be nice if you cold review some of them.
Great Sound. Good Job . Very 🆒 Channel
Why not keep at least one 212 just in case you want to gig? I keep my PPC412 at home for playing and recording and mainly take my PPC212OB out because it’s easy to move around and fit in a car. Having both is the best of both worlds.
I just don't need it
@@SonicDriveStudio and you need how many amps exactly? 😂
Many
Engl 412s are GREAT! They're just too friggin HEAVY (as are Mesas). You're talking ~110lbs. If anyone wants a 412 that also does that throaty thing, both the Triamp MKIII cab and Soldano classic are good for that, but weigh a bit less. Word of note, my Soldano cab had the Eminence Legend V12s in it, which are a TOTALLY different animal than the V30s they stick in there now; there was a lot more low end and the mids were kind of "smoky". Soldano should've stayed with the Eminences.
Any chance selling some impulse responses to this awesome cab?
sounds insane
Awesome, is there any IR Pack cominh? 😊
No, I'll leave that to the pro's
Sounds great
You should use a second ribon mic, it makes all the difference. Sm57 alone is horrible little tiny tone.
SM57 can be amazing with good mic preamps and careful positioning. It places the tone in the mids, while still have a lot of low end impact on the palm mutes
Hi, Great sound! Love Engl cabs, currently I own a 212 one
My question is what bass plugin are you using? Or is it a Real bass?
Real bass into helix native
So.... Make us an IR, one IR to rule them all 😘
I'd pay for it. >.> Jon Symons signature Ownhammer pack? Heh.
@@Coggler101010 the older ownhammer packs have a JS mix in them... I believe that are the Jon Symons mixes.
Am I correct? @SonicDriveStudio
Yes but I don't use those anymore
Have you tried the Marshall Silver Jubilee 2550x before? I’d love to see a review.
Been heavily debating between going for that or a Marshall JVN410h
I have the mini jubilee, its cool!
The ENGL SE FE sounds the best to me. That must have been pretty loud in the room, did you use an attenuator?
It wasn't super loud. These amps don't need to be loud to sound good
never sounded better!
I'm glad you like it!
I’ll bet it feels massive in the room \m/
Absolutely!
XXL cab XXL tones.
What do u use to re-amp please do? Radial?
Do u plan to make ir of this cab?
Сongratulations Cool Cab😎 Test Cab VS Impuls )
What kind of v30 s are loaded in this cab?? I would like to get it. Thanks.🤟
That would be a question for ENGL
@@SonicDriveStudio what's your take on it? Chinese v30??
@jhonpasquez6145 all I know is that they sound freaking amazing! Likely Chinese but I can't confirm
@@jhonpasquez6145 From what I have been seeing, modern Chinese V30s sound great. They used to suck, but not anymore. So it doesn't really matter these days.
These are Chinese V30’s which in my opinion sound excellent with every Engl cab that I have owned. DV77’s sound great with Engl cabs as well!
