I’ve got the Orange Micro Dark. Cool little amp, when I use that amp I run it into a 1x12 cab loaded with a greenback speaker. Takes pedals really well, I usually run a Fuzzlord FET120 & Russian muff in front of it. I’m thinking about since the Micro Dark has a effects loop is to run the FET120 in the loop with the FTW120 in the front. Another good budget option amp to check out is the Orange OR15. Oh one more thing about the Orange micro amps is if you’re going to a shop to check out some cabs is this amp is easy to carry so you can take it with you & carry your guitar to try out other cabs.

I used to run my micro through a Marshall 4x12. The little toy speaker will never do it justice.

I really like that you used the amp it’s supposed to be paired with.

An fx loop is great. For an eq pedal, it won't really influence the "whole" tone imo, as the loop is a buffered solid state affair. How much you're influencing the tube tone, idk?

I picked up a micro dark when I got more into playing doom. Im playing it thru a 4x12 celestion line six cab from back in the mid 2000s and its surprisingly good for its size.

Got one since they launched. Used it mostly as a backup in case my Laney AOR fails live (it never did) and for home use. One very cool thing is that the first edition of that amp didn't have a cabsim on the headphone out. You can use the headphone out directly into a line input of your audio interface and use some goodf IRs with it. As it is a class D amp you don't even need a cab hooked up. Sounds very good that way, you should def. try it out! Over all it's a OK-ish amp, the amp distortion is not the best, it get's a decent volume and is loud enough for live playing if you use a 4x12 and get miced up. The amp sounds way better if you use a Greenback and a good overdrive or distortion pedal wioth it. I only use it at my parents house, if I'm staying over holidays. I use a Greenback 1x12 with a Fender Full Moon distortion into it, sounds rad with that setup! Maybe try a Joyo Meteor, apparently a OR clone mini head for around the same price of the Micro Terror. Or some other Joyo mini head.

I’m coming to this vid 4 months after it came out, I’m loving the tone with that FTW120. Made my skin crawl a little. I want one!

My very first amp was the Micro Dark, the higher gain version of this. I had the matching cab too but ditched it pretty quick and used my dad's home built 1x15 bass cab that had an old JBL E140 in it. It's not my favorite amp anymore but I've kept it for nostalgia reasons because when my other amps broke down it was always there for me to jam on and I learned a lot of songs with it and wrote some of my first songs with it. With the new Terror stamp version and other pedal board amps they're a great option for a compact practice rig. By the way have you ever thought about modding one of these? There's not much inside them but without a schematic I've never tried it myself. Great vid as always man \m/

i've been using a similar setup for my solo project: a terror stamp + a dv mark neoclassic 1x12 cab which can handle 150 watts at 8 ohms. recently, i came to the conclusion that i wanted more clean headroom, as well as a di out, to complement the rest of my solo setup (synths, drum machine, rc-505 looper etc.) which i run through a surprisingly loud 8" headrush frfr powered speaker. after trying out some dedicated power amps (hotone loudster, crate power block) as well as the super crush/crush pro heads at my local guitar stores, i ultimately went for a clean bass head from tc electronic, the bam200; now, i run the fx send from my terror stamp into the input jack of my bass head, with the gain at 10 o'clock & the rest of the settings all around noon, and it works great. those tc electronic heads are small, lightweight, and run around $150 (or abt 135 euros) via thomann, sweetwater etc. so i'd highly recommend checking one out if you're looking for a bit more oomph as well as flexibility in live settings/home recording.

I use the MicroDarkTerror into a 4x12 with Celestions and it is plenty loud by itself. That pre amp tube op amp section is awesome. I run a stereo rig with one side being dark Terror and the other side a Roland JC120. Some of the current pedals I use in this set up: Ehx BM Green Russian w/moscow mule mod, EQD Hizumitas, Catalinbread Sabbra Cadabra, TC Mojo Mojo Paul Gilbert...are the dirt. Catalinbread Soft Focus, Echo Rec and Semiphore stereo, TC Transitions, TC Petrucci Chorus Flanger and a Walrus Slotva for modulation.

Almost picked up one of these to run on a single cab 12" Celestion V30 but I already had a Crush 20. I ended up modding the CR with a Swithcraft 12A for external cab use. Handles the low tuning fuzz a lot better than the stock 8". The Micro Terror does sound good though.

The Orange "Lunch Box" amps are serious tone machines for sure. Really trough to beat for the money when you consider how most people would wind up using them. In terms of other "Budget" amps... Joyo's Bantamp series came out a few years ago and they even made a Orange clone... Personally I'd like to hear a Fuzzlord pedal rig through a Joyo Blue Jay (their Fender style "clean" Bantamp). On paper that could sound soul crushing.

Takes pedals like a champ, especially a TD or SD-1. With a Rat and/or a Super/Hyperfuzz, it's a fire-breathing monster.

Been thinking of getting a micro terror to maybe get more headroom that I cant get with the micro dark. Have each going into half of my 4x12 and use a A/B pedal to switch between them.

I have a epiphone custom Les Paul B standard. I have the micro terror dark hooked up to my Marshall 4x12 cabinet. It’s a killer fucking setup, they make quality products that I’d gladly pay for again and again.

I had a micro terror when they were first released. I played it through a 1x12 and it punched way above its price point. Another cheap amp you might wanna check out is the Boss Katana mini. My wife bought me one for livingroom jamming. I ran my Rat through the clean channel and also boosted the crunch channel with my Rat. I was able to coax some surprisingly good doomy tones out of it. It's only bottleneck is the small speaker. But for what it costs and that it's so portable, it's really killer for what it is. Great channel, Jason, as always.

I had the Micro Dark (The little black one). Changed the pre-amp tube to a Mullard C004 12AX7. The tube made a hugge difference in the fuzziness of the gain. And no matter the amp, I always play them through a 12" speaker. Not a big fan of 8" speakers. They don't have the "wind poewer" or the dynamic range I like. But good for practice.

I've had both this one and the Micro Dark. The Terror had more of an open sounding ala 1970's gain structure to my ears, while the Dark was a bit more scoopy in the mids with tons more gain on tap. Also, the Dark has an FX loop which makes it way more versatile for a night owl audio recording apartment dwelling DooM-Head (like myself). Simply run all your typical "front of amp" pedals into the like normal, run the FX loop "send" your recording interface. After that just boot up TwoNotes Wall of sound, find a power amp and cab IR combo you like, and you're good to go! Basically making it an affordable single loaded 12AX7 guitar preamp for silent recording. I will also add that I once put that tiny Micro Dark on top of a second hand 4x12 cab w/volume maxed, gain at around 7-8 o'clock with both an EQD Acapulco Gold along w/ the trusty ol'e plastic (sometimes controversial) Behringer Super Fuzz. It most definitely Doomed FYI. I'm willing to bet some of the JOYO Bantamp series of micro heads would also make great little budget DooM pedal platforms/recording preamps. Particularly the lower to mid gain offerings such as the "Bluejay" (Fender-ish), "Atomic" (Vox-ish), "Jackman" (MarshaJCM), or even the newer "Badass" bass amp (awesome name! Haha!). Two other "budget" contenders, but in the practice/recording combo amp category? The Orange 35RT (only combo in it's range with a good FX loop IMO) aaaand The Boss Katana. Seriously, check out the "Doom Tones" YT channel where the guy absolutely crushes it with simply a ProCo RAT & Katana 50 Mk1. Allrighty then. I think I should probably stop typing now. 😅

I just recently got this amp. I was running through an older Kustom Quad head ( solid state) that sat around for about 12 to 15 years before it was given to me. It had some issues and why I got the Micro Terror.... I run it through a 4x12 Marshall 1960 Vintage cabinet....yes, it will push a 4x12 cabinet and it is freaking loud!!!! I plug into an Eyemaster, then into a Boss MT-2 waza.... Let's just say, monstrous Buzzsaw guitar tones for days!!!!!!! My guitar is tuned to Drop C ( 6 string)....but I'm on the hunt for a decent 7 string or baritone 6 string!! Edit: Some of you Doom Metal guys might want to seriously consider checking out the Eyemaster!! Yes, it's supposed to be geared more towards the Swedish Buzzsaw guitar tone, but I still think some of you may dig the pedal!!...and for only $60 bucks!!! You really can't beat it!!

The move here is to play the Micro Terror through a proper cab. The downside to this amp is the class D power section, not because it's solid state but because class D doesn't always sound great when pushed. I liked cranking the gain, backing off the volume a tiny bit, and hitting the amp with a TC spark clean boost. Through a 4x12 it sounded really good and I even gigged it in a pinch. I did find the later Terror stAmp to be a massive improvement due to the solid state AB power amp, which sounds and feels much better than class D when loud. Also, it costs about the same as the Micro Terror. I'd love to see Jason try the Terror stAmp. I think it's great and would love to see what he can do with it.

I hated the cab, but I love the amp. I used to run it though a crate 4x12 in a metalcore band, it sounded killer.

Old peavey amps for budget doom

for sure!!

Id probably consider a micro terror or micro dark if there was an fx loop. Bit of a deal breaker for me. They fit one on the terror stamp so why not the micro amps. Some of the joyo bantamps are pretty good. I use an orange super crush on its own and with various pedals with excellent results.

The micro dark has an fx loop. It is outstanding for heavy sounds and its cleans are surprisingly good (though not very loud, for high gain its so loud itll rattle your skull)

Why not use the higher gain micro dark? These lil amps basically use the voltage starved tube as a clipping diode....

If you don't like the color of the micro dark preamp ...just plug the pedal output to the fx loop return of the (microdark)

I use the Orange Terror Stamp (Micro Dark circuit in pedal case) into the Power Amp In of my Boss Katana. Paired with Green Russian Big Muff, Behringer SF300, and Rat, it definitely dooms!

Little cab does this amp no favors. My Micro Dark into two 1x12's sounds pretty good with pedals in front. The tone knob at less than noon sounds pretty garbo, at above noon it sounds ok, needs to be pushed to sound good. A TS in front does thrash. Fuzzes need to be set bright to get rid of the mud.

yeah not a fan of the cab myself. Can't really handle the power without rattling

I have the Micro Dark. Blow the terror away. Not that the terror is a bad amp. But have owned both. A budget Doom amp…any affordable amp IMO. Is this what you traded for your new Mata? Jk 😆 . You played YOB beautifully Jason!

It's got some viable tones. Wonder what a Jensen 1x15 would do for it?

I bought a micro dark terror two years ago. Ive tried and tried but there is no way to make that amp sound nice to my ears. Got the Rocker 15 combo and now I can get a lil closer to what I want.

Try changing the speaker! It's the most crucial part of your sound! WGS and Jensen make cool 10 inch speaker and that will def. be a upgrade from the Orange stock speaker. Maybe a Jensen Electric Lightning (dark and agressive), Jensen Falcon (dark and smooth), WGS Green Beret (Greenback style, all around good option as Orange play very nice with Greenbacks), WGS ET10 (dark with a bit of high end bite) or WGS Retro10 (V30 style speaker) would do the trick. Just choose the same ohm version of the speaker that goes mroe in the direction you want the sound to be and replace the Orange Voice Of The World speaker. I bet it will sound better!

@@FuzzlordEffects FYI the rocker15 is NOT a Rockerverb circuit. Its a modified terror circuit. Confusing and bad name imo. But then again they really just let a dude name his signature orange "MK Ultra". So they are putting little to no thought into the names. Too busy working on branded earbuds. Hahaha.

@@rk28984 Thanks Rotten Slvdge! Appreciated! Honestly I just don't like how it breaks. Dynamics is an issue too. I feel like the microdark sounds squished and dull. I played a rockerverb 50 for years and got very used to that perfect sound. That may be the problem. Got spoiled. Cant go backwards.

@@earthhuman5448 I own a Orange Brent Hinds, it's close to the Rocker but a bit more raw sounding (less compression and more agrressive mdis). The BH Terror sounds awesome with a Greenback or a WGS Reaper HP (G12H30 style speaker, the ET10 should be close to that). I'd recommend to google for the "WGS tone chart", it's great way to get information on how differend styles of speaker sound. I guess you need something with a bit more headroom, I'd suggest the WGS ET10 or the Retro10 (there is a great comparison video on KZread). PS.: Brent originally wanted his amp to be called "Dirty B-Hinds" but Orange didn't allow it! 😆

Ok, but will it doom with a Hello Kitty strat?

Although I only own tube amps, it would be cool to see a solid-state or hybrid Fuzzlord amp.

This amp is actually really loud for it tiny size..

Sounds muddy. I bet that 8" speaker isn't helping. I bet it would sound richer through something with a little more headroom.
