Laney IRONHEART Amp vs. Plugin!
Музыка
A thorough examination of the new @LaneyAmplification Ironheart plugin by @AuroraDSP and comparing it to my IRT Studio. I've been recording with my Ironheart for the last decade, so I was excited to see it finally come to the plugin world.
In addition to being a faithful model of the original, the plugin adds in some nice Laney pedals and cabs I haven't seen anywhere else!

Thanks!
Thanks for this long review. You put a lot of effort in this video and it pays off- hopefully. I own three Ironhearts in my homestudio. the IRT Studio (aniv.Ed. with red Front) to a 112IRT Cab miced with Lewitt MTP440DM, my IRT-60H (changed Powertubes to EL34) on a Hesu 212 Studio miced with Behringer B906 and the IRT combo (30W) often paired with the closed 112IRT Cab. Although i have a Driftwood nightmare-mini on top of the 60W laney head, the Ironhearts are still my favourite go-to Amps for practice and recording. Can also tell that i had long time trouble with the real Laney IRT-60H and it went two times to laney UK for repair and in the end, it had to be replaced by Thomann for a brand new amphead with different SerNr. I also had to change two preamp tubes on this new one within two years and now it's as fine as the "IRT studio"..If one only needs the beloved Ironheart-sound, but does not want to take care of this kind of hardware (valves are not cheap today..) the plug-in may be a good option to go for. nice rockin' greets from Bavaria/Germany

You're certainly the fan of them! I'm glad mine has been solid for years. Got it lightly used from a shop and only thing I've ever done is swap out V1 when it gets old and about a year ago replaced the power tubes for the first time ever when they started acting up. The smaller amps are cheaper to maintain too! I think a pair of EL84s was only $30
Cool tones! Couldn't you just run the dry signal from USB out and run that through the amp sim?

You can, but I find it easier to use the XLR out, that's going to just the cab section of the plugin
