    you champion, of the dozens and dozens of demos of this thing you are the only one who has run it through a PA speaker to demo it's live potential. Most of the demo vid guys just use it as a DI and play with the reverb and software for half an hour.

      Only if it’s a 50w one or you can pull a pair of valves on the JCM’s?...
      The Captor X is rated at 100w RMS, and the wattage ratings on Marshall heads are totally clean no distortion, if you push a 100w Marshall into overdrive, they’ll put out like 120w.

    Back in the early 80's at the Burns Howff in Glasgow I used to have a 50W Marshall that literally drowned out our bands 200 W PA at anything above 4!! Had to go back to my old 100W H&H head on "valve sound" Terrible! Wish I'd had one of these things then. That said I think I need one now for recording and PMT are doing a good price :)

    Had a power brake in the ‘80s and killed one of my ‘82 jcm800, first the tubes kept frying and then a transformer, hopefully the tech has improved over the years!
    So how long can I play an 100 watt 2205 without fear of smoke?

      @RobertNolan 3 місяці тому

      There are two options 8 ohm and 16 ohm, you do need to buy the correct one. The cable from the speakers plugs right to the "speaker out" jack and you need a cable to send from the head to the red jack - or for silent play, just a cable from the head to the red jack and headphones. Hope you try it, these are a lot of fun, and really great for both attenuation and silent play, as well as recording.

    Is it possible to just use this as an attenuator/load box and *not* get cab simulations, apps, etc.? I wanted to plug this into my Headrush modeler, then pick the Headrush's cab/mic simulations, effect pedals, etc., and then into my Focusrite. I hate apps and like to keep it simple.

      The speaker output Jack on the amp will be labeled 4, 8, or 16 ohm. It may have multiple outputs so you can use different cabinets. If that’s the case, just make sure you get a load box that matches the output you intend to use. In a combo amp, your speaker should have the ohm load printed on it.

      @hawg427 I was thinking the same thing in the past and gave both a try and the Captor X was by far the best. It was cheaper, easy to use, smaller, you can get 3rd party IR for it and just sounded better to me. It’s the best bit of kit I own.

    • @perkristoffersson4153
      @perkristoffersson4153 9 місяців тому

      This plugs in between your amplifier (speaker output) and the PA system, adding a cab sim adjustment to the tone. So that's how you use it live with no cab.
