Quick Question Rab: IR recommendations?
@OTCRock4one

Are we hearing audio from your Studio Speakers?
11:09 That twin-tracker width is great! Explanation - if you send exactly the same signal to your left ear and right ear there will be no stereo effect. Entropy sort of means randomness. That means the twin tracker is making lots of tiny random time variations to the left and right signals so that you don't hear things at exactly the same time in the left and right ear. The effect is to make it seem to your ears like the sound is coming from different places. It isn't the notes that is important. It is the timing. A note that arrives at your left ear a fraction of a millisecond after arriving at your right ear sounds like it is over there (points to the far right corner of bedroom). Cool demo, Bea.
you're the only one i can listen talking for 10 minutes without playing cause i know it will be good bravo

Honestly was thinking the same
half a second in with headphones on and I already wanted that thing, what a sound. 🤘👽
Love my original Captor, I use it nearly every day. Glad to see they're added the ability to load your own IR's - its now pretty much perfect for live use.
Stumbled across this older video when looking for attenuator and DAMN, your tone was killer in this video. This Captor X looks sweet.

This isn’t really an attenuator even though it has a possibility to attenuate. Tone King Ironman is the best choice for that job.
You’re brilliant. The captor x is brilliant. This video is brilliant. Thank you.
You release your video just when I am looking infos about the product, thanks, good video, keep it up!
Great in depth look. After demoing several different options this looks like the best for me. Thx!
I’ve had mine now for about 5 months and it’s changed my life!
Yes!! Mine was on back order for nearly four weeks and finally shipped this week! Should have it by monday.
Man I love your playing . Appreciate you sharing brother Bea.
As always, great video and great tones! Love my Captor X. Got it after selling my Kemper, to use with my tube amp. Not looking back; it makes everything so simple and fun.
just getting absolutely pummeled with sound at the very start of a rabea video. such righteous noise.
OMG dude that intro tone gave me goosebumps!
well done! Very detailed and informative. Ty...getting myself one.
I sit here 12 seconds into the video, composing my final will & testament, as my life is being crushed by that immense tone. Holy fucking shit, Rabea. That shit's NASTY in the best way possible!
I was eyeing one up as I love my tube amps, but can't make lots of noise. You know, same old, same old. After this review I'm sold. Thanks for the great review Rabea!
Very Helpful mine arrives tomorrow. Thanks
Great review, Bea - thanks!
TONE MY BRO !! 🤘🤘 I’m a fan, thanks for the lesson..🙏🏼
I love that you play the riff from My Curse. Great video dude! Next item on my list.
Awesome. It sounds unbelievably good. Two notes stuff is very useful.
NO WAY..... The Best product is: RABEA'S SHAMPOO!!!!!

Killer riffage and great content bro! ✊🏾🔥
That is a beast! I have the cabM which record all my pedal demo with and already the amount of options to tone shape is unreal
I’ve been holding off on these load boxes/cab sims for a loooong time. I’m afraid this one is gonna get me.
This is awesome man. Have a good day.
Awesome video Man! I think in going to buy this based on your review 👍🤙
Bea- Finally had a chance to sit down and go through Fire by the Silos. I know 4 you it's YEARS ago. Awesome Album. Lookin forward to your 2020 releases.
Man that preset 3 reverb was so vibey!
I am so loving my new Captor X. I was ready to get rid of my Marshall DSL40c as I could just never enjoy the tone. Even at the intolerable volume level that everyone knows a tube amp needs to be at, I just didn't care for it. I even replaced the 70/80 stock speaker with a Creamback and it was a little better, but it was never inspiring to play. That has all changed now that I'm sending it through the Captor X. I even love the clean channel now!!
Just ordered the 16-ohm Torpedo X! These things are next level for your high gain, high wattage tube amps. Highly recommend.
We need a super long compilation of all bea’s riffs from when he’s just jamming in demo vids like this. Need. I could listen to you noodling for hours man

Thanks for making this video - literally got lost in the moment watching haha tones sound GREAT - I am curious what my PRS Archon 50 will sound like \m/
You sir make anything sound good
Great playing man. Greetings from Panama
Amazing demo and incredible playing! I love the preset 3 reverb. Can you recommend a reverb pedal to recreate that tone while playing through a guitar amp?
Dude ur Tone is Fantastic!!
Great tips! Greetings from Singapore!
Sounds good. You have to try it with the Victory Duchess pedal/amp and record a video for us! Keep up the good work.
Another awesome review! TwoNotes did a really great job with the Captor X. BTW, Could you tell me what kind of studio monitors do you recommend?
Just ordered one from Andertons. This is going to be so handy.
Rabs looking sleek and sporty... kick push kick push kick push... coast
Thanks Rabea. Great vid. Question to you or anyone else. Do you listen to your playing real time through monitors or headphones when recording or practicing? I'm assuming to make this video you must play through monitors to be able to sync the audio. Thanks!
Hey dude, have you seen/heard of the Mas Effects Mimir's Well? It seems like another cool step in the more serious multi-FX vibe, with a hint of Toneprint or Eventide in it as well. Yet to see anyone demo it properly.
Nice Killswitch engage at 19:40 dude lml

THIS. IS. MY. PURSE.
Great review. I am mainly looking to get a load box for re-amping and then mixing in my studio. Would you still recommend this or the original Captor? Thanks!
awesome vid Rabea! always great, since I use 3 amps all the time is it possible to use this with them? I'm sure ill need more than 1 I'm new to all of this..
Damn, this thing sounds so good. I just wish it was a tad bit cheaper, but you do get what you pay for. Thanks for presenting this to us, Rabea! Stay metal, my friend! 🤘🤘
I want one of these things so goddamn bad
Great demo Rabea; just long enough! I just got my Captor X yesterday! Is this your signal chain: Guitar>Pedal Board>Amp>Captor X>UA Apollo Twin X>Mac>Powered Monitors? What monitors are you using? Thanks! ~Robert
Eagerly awaiting mine to be shipped in the next week or so. Any chance your presets using the stock cabs will be available for download anywhere? Also... What are the chances of you releasing an ir pack at any point?
Hi Rabea, first really thank you for everything you did and what you do, i'm really happy to discovered your bands and your channel. I have a question about the ohm with the super kraken and the captor, because the captor is made for 8 ohm amps and the super kraken is an 16 ohm so how do you plug them? or maybe is it better to have an 16 ohm captor X ? I know that you have other things to do but i'm really lost with this and how to do it , i have a super kraken and i don't want to make a mistake or buy the wrong thing. Thank you to answer, Bastien.
My god....Rabea! That intro is so freaking amazing that I simply stopped doing anything I was and a strong desire to learn to play that piece surrounded my brain! What is it? 20:55 what tuning are playing in?
Sounds fakin killer!
I could listen to 24:28 for hours in an open world forest type of survival game so immersive! 🙌
Any chance you’d be prepared to do a quick 30s mic’d cab run through of the attenuation?
Thanks Rabea nice review - anyone know how good the gate is?
Would this unit be a good option if my primary use would be silent headphones practice and amp attenuation for low volume playing? Are there better options for that?
Thanks for the sweet review. Just ordered one, replacing my iridium for home studio. We'll see though!

So, is it nicer than the Iridium?
@BadMofoMusicCritic
Жыл бұрын
@@rasmusvadavlund7270 it’s different. It’s very good at getting your amp into a monitor for quiet playing or recording. I’d say overall it’s probably slightly more authentic than the iridium in terms of tone and feel. However, I’ve moved back to the iridium. It’s just easier for me. I don’t need to re-rig up my amp taking it back and forth from the studio etc. And i save the tubes by just flicking on the iridium. Further, you get more variety in the iridium compared to using your amps through the captor. Both are great gear. Just depends on what your needs and priorities are. I like simple. The iridium is perfect right now.
I already have a Torpedo Load/Reload Box, is there enough new features in this to warrant me buying this as well it does it do pretty much the same thing in a smaller box????
Seems to be pretty competitive with the Boss Waza Tube amp expander and at half the price. Nice work.
Where do you get your tshirts from?
Rabea, please excuse the question not being related to this video. But I'm interested in buying the VX100 and was wondering if you know for how long will these be in production for, before they stop being made? Like for example, it's gonna take me about 10 full months to save up for one. Idk, you might not be able to disclose when MK is going to start phasing them out, but if you are will it be end of 2020 when they start doing that? Cheers x
Can this be used with pedals only, like Revv G3 or other preamps? Or does the "speaker in" works only with speaker out from an amp?
Could I go from the Captor X straight into a pair of powered studio monitors? If so, which connection/s to use and how would it sound?
With the Captor X, can you reamp your signal? Could you send the balanced output to a power amp and a cab?
Thank you rabea I have problems with torpedo captor 8 high pitch torpedo in crunch and led chanel if you have any idea 💡 thankfully
Do you think the Boss TAE justifies being 2x the price of the Captor X? I'm trying to decide between the 2 myself. I'm ultimately looking to be able to record at home with my tube amps at their sweet spot, play silently in headphones, but also just be able to crank my amps and sit in front of them for some jams through their actual speaker cabs. Thanks for the help, cheers!
Does the Captor X put out line level, or do you need to run it trough the mic pre?
That opening riff is DIRTY
Had mine on order from Sweetwater for a few weeks. Still patiently waiting.

Rabea - big fan mate.. for use strictly as an attenuator do you prefer this or Tone King Ironman?
Could this be used in place of the UA Ox Box?
Hi Rabea, is this something that I could use with the Quad Cortex? I am using the Friedman ASC10 FRFR Cab. Thanks!
Great Video - I'm Keen on getting the Captor X - NOW !! PRESET 3 !! - the piece you play - is adorable !! _ is that a song ? - or something you just played on the spur of the moment - either way - I had to sit and work it out -Just Beautiful

I also want to know!
Would this be best for me? Briefly: I play edrums and guitar at home and play/record mainly using headphones. I have pedals, few amps, steinberg audiointerface, iMac/Ableton/BIASFX, mixer(where I plug the headphones), old Roland poweramp for speakers and studiomonitors. (+edrums). But for the guitar tone, I love the tube amp sound even in my own cover recordings and playing thru headphones. I just bought dark terror Orange amp which dont have cabsim. Do I need one? And would this be the right product? And Thanks for your very best reviews. You are very very clear and share your knowledge very professional way👍
Do you have already tested the AMT Pangaea CP100fx ? I think he is much better than Cab M and he can also be use between power amp and cab. He has stereo out, stereo in, midi, lot of effects, IR loader, power amp and preamp sim, aux in, etc...
The Entropy Control simulates the "sway" or flange of dual tape heads to Reel. A Doubling, width, or thickness control if you will.
Would love to see a comparison to the Suhr Reactive Load IR
that beginning riff gave me MERROW vibes
What power supply did you use to power the direct section?
Can you run a Victory Kraken Pedal directly into this instead of using an amp?
Rabea, 8 or 16 ohm CaptorX with the VX Kraken? Which would be better? Also have an Orange OR15.
Great review. I have the non-X version and am stuck with one IR if I want to print directly to DAW. When you said this product is “Wall of Sound in the box”, that sold it for me! Would it be capable to load the GGD Studio Cab IRs into this unit ?

Hi, please tell us, what kind volume was your amp head cranked at the time?
If I were to buy the Revv G20 amplifier, would this unit be redundant or would it still be useful?
Question, Incase you didn't see my long comment i'll just ask the Q in this one, Did you use the 8 or 16 ohm and would it affect the DI tone? We know that it makes a difference in real cabs but does it matter in DI?
Massive fan your playing! I play completely different things, and I honestly find a lot of modern metal, even the progressive stuff, really daft. Genrewise you're hard to pin down, but I guess those are the labels that fit your stuff - ..yet I find your playing is super interesting, your melodic stuff, harmonizing, phrasing, always melody over scales.. TOP NOTCH stuff. THanKs fOr shaRiNg the music.
what’s cables you use in your prdalboard ?
Great vid. I’m very tempted by this. One question I have though which I’ve sent two two notes but not had a response is... can you plug a 16ohm cab into the speaker out? I get that the input needs to be 8ohm but it is clear whether the speaker has to match this! Any help would be most appreciated!
@thanhhuynh2044

I got a reply on gearpage.net. You are able to mismatch captor X with a 16ohm cab. Similar to mismatching an amp 8 ohm and 16ohm cab. I have no experience with mismatching. It will alter the sound (mids or so) due to mismatch
22:32 - this progression was very readily at hand. Is this a song? Sounds killer.
Question for current users of this unit, How is the tone signal coming from the head phone out?
are your impulse responses available for purchase?
Do you know if there are any ir load boxes for live that have the ability to add delay?
I'm new to amps and I have this silly question If I have say mesa boogie mark v 35 head and don't have speaker cab so can i connect head to the captor x and then captor x output to PA system?
What would you think is better? Cheap Marshall cab, or Torpedo captor and IR?
