Great review on the pedal; yes, I thought that James' Laney amp sounded terrific and I am disappointed that the pedal doesn't come close to it. BTW, nice to see Lee with you on your past couple of videos, now that you are in his neighborhood!

I wish you gave the pedal the time that you seem to have given other pedals you have demonstrated. I would have also like to see how it sounded through a cabinet since it is an amp.

I think it sounds great , it sounds much better than a lot of other stuff ye have reviewed

It's a great sounding pedal. And sparkly cleans are there - with the clean switch in the centre and the gain on zero. It also works really well with modellers into the front end or a pedalboard. Having owned an Ironheart amp head I think it sounds quite close, and the boost is better than the real amp. Perhaps you guys should have tried the amp output too.

You can use it to go straight into a guitar cab. It does have a power amp output. I'd like to have heard that. Spectre Sound Studios thought it was amazing for Heavy Metal. Personally, I think I'll go for a second hand Ironheart valve 60w IRT. Even though I suspect they weigh a ton.

If you're in band that can't bring too much gear when you travel, this thing is absolutely amazing. I don't even bring any other pedals but the tuner anymore, the Boost is good enough for solos and leads. Well done Laney.

I like mine ran with an IR pedal but it's still missing something

Love mine!

I'd love to see what you guys think of the Blackstar amped 2 as a direct to mixer live rig. I've built a direct pedalboard recently and just got it sounding good enough 2 sell my JCM800. I use pedals not a modeller. I'd be interested in what u guys think

Never seen a review where someone’s gone into it already deciding not to like the product so much. The pedal sounds great in every other video I’ve seen and when I’ve heard it live. The only uninspiring thing in the video is the playing lol

I enjoyed the demo, but why not use at least 3 different guitars? Single and humbuckers?

if Laney could manage to put built in reverb in it,that product was the champion

That's always the finishing touch. Hate when they leave this out. Doesn't even have to be a "great" reverb, but just sound like a decent subtle digital plate.

And a tuner? Blackstar xmped 2 got it right features wise.truly all in one.why the next generation smped 3 lacks all the beautiful features, otherwise the capitalism, beats me...wish this one have a tuner...even the HK blackspirit powered amo multi fx lacks the fkn tuuuuner

I run my into a 2x12 Silver Jubilee cab with a Gibson Les Paul. TREBLE AT ONE on regular setting on channel 2! It sounds awesome! It's not a dark pedal. I wish it had more mids on the high gain channel though. It's a $189 pedal with a 60W amp, you think they would include a great IR? NO! Plug into a cab!

Nice demo. A shame the cab emulation is junk and the amp is uninspiring. Have your tried the Quilter Superblock amp pedals? I’ve seen a lot of positive comments, including on the XLR line out with cab sim.

Spot on review when it comes to the DI output. Have been playing with it for two days, but it sounds disappointing.

So the DI does sound band right?

Laney says that this Loudpedal can be used as a dirt pedal in front of an amp. It apparently makes squealing noises when you do that. Any ideas?

I thought it sounded good at points - in part because of the player for sure - but there were moments where it came over sweet and sustaining... but agreed that if you're not using your own IRS then it would be a bit of a disappointment. I'm assuming that you could run the XLR into an IR pedal, like the TC Impulse (which I appreciate would need XLR to Jack conversion), but then the price is increasing to the point that it's probably worth just buying something else!

It has an fx loop, you could run an IR pedal thru the loop

You could run the XLR into an IR device. Also the FX loop out is suggested in the manual if you want to run the pedal into other things without using the power amp.

Seems to me the best use for this is to throw it in a gig bag and then if one is on tour and the backline amp dies then boom plug this in and get through the gig.

Lee, Paul really pooped on your show didn’t he. I just wouldn’t take that. I just wouldn’t give a tinkers damn!

I like it more than you guys

Watch Pete Thorns video of this pedal. These guys don't really do it justice

When it's this compact, it's class D. It's incredibly cheap, a full board is a few dollars in China. It's a bargain that the guitar industry has sniffed out to charge an exorbitant amount ! In front of me I have my proximity speakers powered by a class D amp, paid 15 dollars, next to the NAD amp, has not been turned on for 10 years...

Running a tele with the treble full up, and it is still just barely bright enough. That is a dark amp. The distortion is fairly generic and fuzzy.

I have a (British made) Laney Lionheart, a Laney GH30R and a Laney BCC Steel Park Overdrive and love these products, but THIS thing just doesn't seem to sound very good; Especially when you expect it to sound even remotely like an Ironheart IRT60.
