Love it or hate it, its still impressive as hell that this product came out more than 20 years ago as a fully programmable tube driven preamp. All in a 1U rack space too with minimal updates since because they got the design down right the first time.
I never owned the TriAxis, but I had a similar, preamp that I sold a while back, called the Rocktron Pirannha. I don't understand why amplifier's never gained traction with the programmable preamp stage. I currently own a H&K Coreblade, and it is Programmable. I really love the flexibility midi programmable guitar rigs provide.
For sure they are the easiest on road aftet you have set all the midi stuff with your rig, just a push of a button to change all parts of the signal chain. ADA was very favored late 80's or early 90's like this but I guess it was the hype about new thing when everyone switched to ADA but in the end many liked the easy and simple to use, read and understand knobs. Like myself, I personally see the advantages of MIDI configurable gear and Kempers and Axes and everything but they aren't for me. I feel the mojo coming from that simple interface with few knobs and when THE sound is only as far as turning the gear on, not necessarily tweaking it. I do admire how far the technology has taken guitar gear though, like I said, it's a miracle for touring.
The fact that you can't get a decent fully midi controlled all tube head in 2022 blows my mind when there are so many products out there. I know the rectifier and a lot of ENGL has a lot of midi controlled stuff but not the level something like the Triaxis has and potentially an amp could have.
This is IMO the best amp demo video you've done Ola, really enjoy you talking in real time whilst playing rather than done post production in a voice over etc. Also fucking christ I need a triaxis now :(
Man that tone!!! This has me seriously considering building a rack rig. Seems like it's super versatile and I play mostly metal but I have contributed guitar to everything from country to pop and funk etc. This thing seems like it could handle all that and sound good doing it!
I put one of these in front of an Alexis Quadraverb GT+ with a 16 band graphic into a Marshall 8008 power amp and 1960 stereo converted cab. With the noise gate in the Quadraverb you literally could not tell the amp was on at all until you hit a note. People like Orange Goblin (or Our Haunted Kingdom as they were at the time) used our amp. It simply crushed. People tried to get that Metallica "Black Album" combined with Sepultura "Chaos AD" tone on stage, and that just got it perfectly every time. I stupidly sold it when I was broke one day...and the next month I was just as broke but without my Triaxis. Big, big mistake.
This is the best sounding preamp I have ever owned. It is really flawless and well built throughout. The thing with this preamp is you must run it with the poweramp built for it in my case is the Mesa Boogie 2:90 amp. My mate bought himself a triaxis and then paired it with his Peavey Classic 100w power amp and it sounded good..ish but when I run his triaxis through my Mesa 2:90 the difference was staggering. The 2:90 was around 5 times the price costing £2450 vrs his Peavey £500 and you can hear the difference immediately. If you own a triaxis and you love it then pls spend the extra cash on the Mesa power amp because they were practically built for each other and it's well worth the extra cash. The detail the 2:90 gives is stunning and you hear all the complex mids and huge lows without even a hint of wooliness going on... just massive power and beautiful on the ears:)
The Marshall Valvestate Poweramp out at the time - the 8008 - worked exceptionally well with it as well, with the advantage of being much lighter and again much cheaper!
Hey Ola, can you please do a comparison of a low end guitar with stock pickups like an Ibanez gio or a cheap jackson versus one of your higher end Washburn guitars?
😢very good sound and the distortion is meticulous absolutely thank you Mesa Boogie I am so happy to have found you 😮 Triaxis gives ways and love is all about the god of all
Sounds great on the Mark IIC+ setting, with the Gain on 6.0 and the Lead Drive on 10. Otherwise, I don't like that Mesa Boogie scooped and too fat type of sound. I prefer when it chugs!
Sounds killer. Kinda like the lit up numbers for settings too. Sometimes I feel like I can't get knobs to the exact same point they were before. With numbers it's easy to remember.
I always wondered about these. I have the mesa 2x50w power amp with an 11 rack for the preamp and effects but I may have to look into ebaying one of these. Sounds pretty good just running dry. Great video thanks!
I have the same issues you can hear in this vid. I tend to hold on to gear and would say that it has some of the best cleans back to back with other hi gain amps, But.... big but... Flub.... can't get heavy low end with out a lot of flub, scooped or not. and you can't get the output A&B knob up with a lot of gain. I ended up pushing the signal with a tube screamer between it and the power amp. to boost the level and gain keeping the tone all the way down to hit the lows. Still felt I needed an EQ after to get the tone right.... once compensated in this way it did everything it they say it can...... Also don't get the 2 fifty.... You need to run both sides according to the manual and 90 watts a side sucks a lot of juice and the 2:90 I had would bleed the power down enough to sag into a faded level. Two fifty watt outputs = 100 and I never had a problem with my Dual Rect. at half volume most jams it's two much.
I have 2 Triaxis that sound killer. Unfortunately both have the TX5 board so Lead 1 Red doesn't sound like this at all. This sounds like a Recto board which makes the LD 1 Red far more aggressive...Having said that, you get the Triaxis for the LD2 modes anyway...
Used to have one - used to like it until I did a head to head comparison - mesa boogie Quad preamp...The quad chewed it up and spit it out... Also, lots of people have reported multiple problems...
Sorry, but why changing Lead 1 Drive when playing a Lead 2 sound? As I can understand from the manual, it makes no difference. Lead 1 Drive is for the Lead 1 sounds, while Lead 2 Drive is for Lead 2 sounds.
So great coming back to these old videos Ola. I'm looking into what Joe Haley of Psycroptic uses, if you haven't heard them they're an incredibly tight extreme metal band from Australia.
I heard that he was using a stereo rig for a while. Triaxis > delay (or pitch detune?) at low setting like 20ms to a stereo poweramp. So one cab on the other side of the stage was delayed a tiny bit to give the impression of 2 guitarists.
@@danec1384 Yep he confirms this in an interview. I remember doing similar with a stereo chorus pedal and a 20ms delay. Really fattens up the tone if you're the only guitarist onstage.
It would be pretty damn cool if you re-did some of your older amp tests. All of them are great, but some of the older ones have poor quality audio due to lower video quality from back in the day. Also, some of them only have the recorded/mixed song and no solo track or playthrough.
Hey ola I have a question. Im debating between this and the grandmeister deluxe 40. I love the mesa tones this preamp has and i was wondering if the ultra channel is anywhere near this kind of sound (mesa mark iv). Im personally looking for a wintersun base tone and they used the triaxis extensively. The grandmeister on the other hand has amazing features and price wise in my country i can get both around for the same price. I know i will have to get a power amp for the triaxis. What do you say? :)
I´m planning on buying a triaxis to have the same distortion sound at lower volumes. Right now i have a mark4 but it´s difficult to achieve that in an apartment. For power amp i was thinking the old 50/50 or 2:90 depending on the result i´m interested in. My question is this: Has your mark2c+ a simulclass output stage or is it class AB ? Also, do you remember if the volumes on the amp and preamp were too high to achieve that tone? Thanks, Chris.
επειδη το βαζω σε combo, βλεπω με μικρη διαφορα να παιρνω καλυτερα αποτελεσματα, εχοντας το master του καθε preset χαμηλα, γιατι απ αυτο επηρεαζεται και το record out που εμενα με ικανοποιησε παρολο π παρα μα παρα πολλους δε τους ικανοποιει, εχω δλδ το master 1-2.. και μονο στο lead 1 red π εχω το rectifier mode και ειναι πιο χαμηλο, εκει φτανω και 3,5... το output το χω στο 4 και μετα παιζω με το Master του combo... πριν το κανω αυτο ειχα το master του preset στο 4-5 Και το Output στο 1 με 1,5 και σα να ζοριζοταν ενα πραμα και ηταν ψιλομπουκωμενος ο ηχος ελαφρα... ηψηλο master χαμηλο Output και ειπα να χαμηλωσω master και να ανεβασω εξοδο.. μπορει να μ φανηκε εμενα και να ηταν καλυτερα αλλα και παλι ο ηχος μ αυτος ηταν.. απλα θεωρησα οτι το Output στο 1 ειναι χαμηλα.. ενω εχει να δωσει κι αλλα το triaxis..
Never liked the Mesa, but it's infuriating how a lot of my favourite bands have cut at least one album with one and I actually like the tone. I wish they would do this rack unit for the Engl amps :P.
Ola, you are the man that can make anything sound awesome. However, I was surprised at how terrible this demo sounds. Not sure why. I used to own a Triaxis and it was brutal AF.
who gives a shit about the clean? the clean is more important than the distortion... you can improve the distortion on an amp, but if the clean is not good, you wont improve it at all... i give a shit about my clean, more than i do for my distortion
thats an old unit... all old preamps have noise... but the sound you get when you hit the strings (specially if the power amp is cranked) you forget about that noise and rock the shit out of it... its considered to be the best preamp ever made out there, by many people.. and when i tested it in my room, i really got to see what.. i got a reason my self too... i played already 2 gigs with it and it really made the difference in the setup... despite running it to a digital Blackstar 2x12 combo it shines like a triaxis should
unfortunately that Mesa as a power amp will colour the sound in the wrong way significantly. you should have run it through the kemper but turning of the amp section ;) always love your vids Ola
To be more specific it's a Triaxis with 2C+ Poweramp and Hesu 212... with an SM58 Shure. Why would you think that? And Ola doesn't use a ton of amp modelling, he uses an AX8 with real amps most of the time.
Love it or hate it, its still impressive as hell that this product came out more than 20 years ago as a fully programmable tube driven preamp. All in a 1U rack space too with minimal updates since because they got the design down right the first time.

I want a Triaxis since the front panel reminds me of the BTTF delorean.
Hell yeah dude I never made that connection til now lol
Also TC2290
*Keyboard drop*
lol yes
"Who gives a shit about cleans anyway?" That just triggered dad rockers everywhere.
Cleans? you mean rolling back the guitar volume knob a little lol
hahahahaha wish I could give this two thumbs up, made my day
and tosin abasi and daron malakian.
these two should not be present in the same sentence
+Psychosis 51 haha. actually they should if you check out tosins thump video he mentions them.
You had me at "Who gives a shit about cleans anyway?" The Triaxis was the heart of my first real rack rig. Miss that piece!
You should do a demo of the ADA MP-1 if you can ever get your hands on one. Another classic heavy preamp!
I 2nd that, I love mine.
For sure , particularly the ada 3tube mod version , absolutely brutal gain
Doug Cunningham I had the mp 2 was awesome
I prefer ADA than JMP1
This is IMO the best amp demo video you've done Ola, really enjoy you talking in real time whilst playing rather than done post production in a voice over etc. Also fucking christ I need a triaxis now :(
Man that tone!!! This has me seriously considering building a rack rig. Seems like it's super versatile and I play mostly metal but I have contributed guitar to everything from country to pop and funk etc. This thing seems like it could handle all that and sound good doing it!

With the noise gate in the Quadraverb you literally could not tell the amp was on at all until you hit a note.
People like Orange Goblin (or Our Haunted Kingdom as they were at the time) used our amp.
It simply crushed. People tried to get that Metallica "Black Album" combined with Sepultura "Chaos AD" tone on stage, and that just got it perfectly every time.
I stupidly sold it when I was broke one day...and the next month I was just as broke but without my Triaxis.
Big, big mistake.

@@bobsurface908 That was my first amp. I loved it and wished I still owned one.
I'm so exited about Ola uploading frequently videos again. I just have fun with them!
Man... I can feel the first two ensiferum albums! Such tightness
Ensiferum
Indeed, and the first Wintersun album as well. Love that tight scooped sound.
Ensiferum
a little more bit? this is freaking crushing tone! one of the most good rhythm tones i ever hear absolutely brutal!!!
2020... I'm still playing with Triaxis
Used to run this into a graphic EQ then through a Simul-Class 395 as the power section. Boy did it chug!
Sold this in early 2000s... My highest regret in life.
I have the second triaxis imported in Italy, and I am very happy... Many years with my triaxis
Hey Ola, can you please do a comparison of a low end guitar with stock pickups like an Ibanez gio or a cheap jackson versus one of your higher end Washburn guitars?
The Haunted...Made Me Do It. What an epic album.
😢very good sound and the distortion is meticulous absolutely thank you Mesa Boogie I am so happy to have found you 😮 Triaxis gives ways and love is all about the god of all

I always wondered about these. I have the mesa 2x50w power amp with an 11 rack for the preamp and effects but I may have to look into ebaying one of these. Sounds pretty good just running dry. Great video thanks!
gonna get one this year ...i have an Ionheart 120 i will use the aux input to mix the Triaxis with Ironhreart to create a super-amp
Any chance you could use your actual Mk2C+ to compare against the TriAxis 2C+ mode?
I second that
"Who gives a shit about cleans anyway " lol ... love it .
Can you do an updated video on this?
I have the same issues you can hear in this vid. I tend to hold on to gear and would say that it has some of the best cleans back to back with other hi gain amps, But.... big but... Flub.... can't get heavy low end with out a lot of flub, scooped or not. and you can't get the output A&B knob up with a lot of gain.

I had one .Loved that.with simul90 worked so good.
I'm not sure if a 58 was the best choice for the mic. The windscreen greatly affects the EQ.
Good demo there Ola. I've built my rig with the 2:90 and Triaxis and love it. Even the cleans, haha.
It's a great preamp, but i still preffer the Quad preamp
damn, the dynamic voice makes a TON of difference, cool
Sorry, but why changing Lead 1 Drive when playing a Lead 2 sound?
As I can understand from the manual, it makes no difference. Lead 1 Drive is for the Lead 1 sounds, while Lead 2 Drive is for Lead 2 sounds.
Please do a full 7 string playthrough with the Triaxis! I’m thinking of getting this amp and i wanna know how it handles the lower tuning

@@danec1384 Never learned any of their stuff. Credit where it's due, one of the heaviest metal bands in the world using Drop D.
Any plans to do another review with your new studio mics and set ups? They still sounding amazing!!!! Cheers Ola!!
cool i think your Box is amazing.
Sound very similar to my ADA MP-2, a lot of midrange
You should redo this video and try to capture Spawn of Possession's tone for Cabinet or Noctambulant!
It would be pretty damn cool if you re-did some of your older amp tests. All of them are great, but some of the older ones have poor quality audio due to lower video quality from back in the day. Also, some of them only have the recorded/mixed song and no solo track or playthrough.
Question for you all! Do you guys know any pedal that tries to capture the sound of the Triaxis/Mark series??
Thank you!!
let's see the Marshall JMP1, one of my favorites. the TriAxis is cool, like the videos.
Beautiful piece of gear. Costs as much though...
"They're calling it the shred mode in the manual, we'll see about that." -Ola
Bwahahaha!!
Access denied!!!
Not today Randall Smith, not today.
Ola: "Who gives a Sh#t about cleans anyway"
Me: Subscribed.
Please make a complete video of this!!!!
Damn you had a JPM too!!
Ohh boy, this sounds amazing 6:05
Holy shit I never knew how good that thing was. I was always entirely skeptical about it when they came out
My Marshall jmp1 preamp which I believe they were each other's competition but it rips a new one as well :)
I prefer ada mp-1 of all these 3
I heard Spawn of Possession use this preamp but I don't know which model!?
How do you think hetfield uses this in combination with his diezal vh4
Early days of Symphony X, man!
Did he not use the studio preamp?
What do you think about the Studio or Quad Preamp? Cheap "Mark" Tone or better get the real deal?
Lead 2 red is mark III mode
Will you make a separate video for triaxis in a mix? We love to
Hey ola compare jp2c vs mark iic+
Triaxis or helix/axe fx?
Great video, thank you for posting it! Do you know which version this triaxis is? 1 or 2? phat mod? or the serial number?
Thanks!
Seems like it had the marshall mode on led 1 red so maybe version 3?
Hey ola I have a question. Im debating between this and the grandmeister deluxe 40.

Does the Ld 2 yellow sound like your mark 2c+ ?
Ola, I'm having a hard time finding the Washburn Solar online for purchasing. Any suggestions?
any body remember,Rockman, it was running into a ada amp i think .wish i still had it today, just to heir again

1:41 Hail to you, dude!
Were you inspired by Dream Theater or Evergrey when you got the Triaxis?
Dream Theater for sure!
Does this have to plug into a head such as the dual rectifier or can it go straight to the cab??
Jake Gotta have a power amp. You can use a head.
Hey Ola. Do you by chance have a seller's page on Reverb or Ebay?
I wanted one so much at the time .
Was this a current version? There's been a few different versions over the years, mostly to do with ld1 red.
Yeah this was the absolute first one. The one I had back in the day had the recto-mod(not phat mod)
I love this sound
Tones of pure sonic violence. I approve muchly.
Hey Ola. What version Triaxis is this?
Hey man, can you do a line 6 spider V metal review?
The tone reminds me a bit of None by Meshuggah...especially the palm mutes..
ZarocQ yea and destroy erase improve. I have a Mark V and you can get that same sound. I can't describe the sound but I know what you mean.
yea, its probably that metallic ringing or smth...Maybe the term "djent" really describes it the best haha.
Can you tell us which incarnation of Triaxis you used for this video?
+Ben McCartney first one, no mods
What kind of noise gate do you use? There's like no noise at all, even at high gain.
+Ti Hammlet no gate in this clip
impressively quiet, especially since the gain/treble/presence was on 10 at times :O
Hey Old, I don't know if anyone has asked you yet but can you sweep pick?
It doesn't matter. He is a badass guitarist.
Johann Wölf I'm just asking
Triaxis has the most insane gain and dephs in the world
Triaxis best piece of equipment ever *o*
is that unit in front the amp or in the effects loop ?
Buck Downs In the fx loop (fx return actually, he's using only the power section of the amp).
I've always wanted a tri-axis
до какого года он выпускался ? 2016 говорят
Never liked the Mesa, but it's infuriating how a lot of my favourite bands have cut at least one album with one and I actually like the tone. I wish they would do this rack unit for the Engl amps :P.
ha ha !!
I like MESA sounds
Ola, you are the man that can make anything sound awesome. However, I was surprised at how terrible this demo sounds. Not sure why. I used to own a Triaxis and it was brutal AF.
this thing is awesooooome 😍
It sounds like you have old tubes that should be replaced.
who gives a shit about the clean? the clean is more important than the distortion... you can improve the distortion on an amp, but if the clean is not good, you wont improve it at all... i give a shit about my clean, more than i do for my distortion
Now you have to do this demo all over again because the recording sounds like shit.
If you like rock can you please pass by Stefano Sella's channel. I think you'll like it
Dont like the sound of it. Nearly on every mode you have a very high disturbing noise.
Thats so true
thats an old unit... all old preamps have noise... but the sound you get when you hit the strings (specially if the power amp is cranked) you forget about that noise and rock the shit out of it... its considered to be the best preamp ever made out there, by many people.. and when i tested it in my room, i really got to see what.. i got a reason my self too... i played already 2 gigs with it and it really made the difference in the setup... despite running it to a digital Blackstar 2x12 combo it shines like a triaxis should
unfortunately that Mesa as a power amp will colour the sound in the wrong way significantly. you should have run it through the kemper but turning of the amp section ;) always love your vids Ola
Never cared for triaxis until I saw this video
Good lord. I had no idea these sounded that pissed off.
So no axe fx? It's all amp tone?
To be more specific it's a Triaxis with 2C+ Poweramp and Hesu 212... with an SM58 Shure. Why would you think that? And Ola doesn't use a ton of amp modelling, he uses an AX8 with real amps most of the time.
Right but that's just a preamp, not an effect like the axe
Huh? You seem lost. Since when is a 2C+ not an amp. Triaxis is a preamp sure. Mark Poweramp in the C+. No effects being used...
I was just asking if there were any effects. I know he used the triaxis and the 2c+
If he doesn't use modeling then how does he get his, I'd say signature tone, out of so many different amps?
HOLY FUCK.
