That amp deserves any name, it's so good!

ENGL amp with an ENGL cab is just magic.

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.

Sounds KILLER, especial the Mastering I've got everything cranked, and I'm getting no speaker distortion 😎 CLEAN and LOUD 🍻🤘

Sound so good !!

A monster cab for your monster tones! Awesome!!

Such a killer cab! Sounds great with soldano!

Sounds huge, It was already on my list, but now I´m even more eager to get one 🤘🤘

Sounds crushing!

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 :)

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

SO Cool on in your intro part! :)

The Engl 4x12 is the only OwnHammer IR pack I bought. Ended up being the only on I need.

running and jumping - is very cool

That guitar is fu**ing beautiful. Thanks for your content man. You are getting me back into playing again. 🤟🏻

@@SonicDriveStudio yes sir. Trying to figure out what new amp to get . Got 2 old 1984 American made Kramers with EMG 81’s .

sounds insane

excellent cab indeed, sounds great with the red seven, anything peavey is also a great match with those cabs

Sounds great

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.

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 vs the Mesa XXL would be interesting from your perspective!

Dude this video is amazing also I have a very special request can you do a korn tone tutorial on a peavey 6505 please🙏🏼

That first tone had some Alexi feel to it.

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?

@SonicDriveStudio

Ай бұрын

Obviously a cab in the room is different and louder than IRs (or a mic'ed cab) through monitors

A bandmate had this one. Sounded great, but gigging with this monster was a pain in the a$$😂

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

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.

What do u use to re-amp please do? Radial?

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.

XXL cab XXL tones.

never sounded better!

Do u plan to make ir of this cab?

You should use a second ribon mic, it makes all the difference. Sm57 alone is horrible little tiny tone.

@djentlover

20 күн бұрын

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

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.
