    Hi Keyan! I just wanted to extend my sincere gratitude to you for putting this specific video out brother. I’ve commented on your channel before but I’ve been putting together my own home studio now over the past several months and it’s something that’s been a daunting task for me. I’ve always been the guy who could play guitar well but knew zero about gear much less recording music on my own. I’m a husband, a father of 4 children, and for a few years I had lost my passion for playing guitar and quite frankly it was a real cause of depression for me. It’s been your channel amongst a few others that have really helped me realize my goal of getting a home studio started and re-lit that fire for playing my guitar again. So THANK YOU Keyan! I’ve consulted your channel primarily for everything regarding audio interfaces, studio monitors, using the quad cortex, and now specifically concerning which neural DSP plugin(s) I want to invest in. I will continue to refer to your channel for everything related to guitar/gear/playing you name it. Don’t let any of the haters make you ever feel like your opinion doesn’t matter or that you aren’t qualified to speak on these subjects because you ARE. Hey I’m a 49 year old dude so I’m probably twice your age but I have no reservations whatsoever in taking advice from you Keyan. Again, thank you for your channel and all the hard work you put into delivering quality content my friend. After watching this video and researching the plugins for months now, I think I’ve settled on the Plini being my first one to purchase. 😊 🤘🏼

    13:21 You are, Neural actually has tons of Marshall tones: - Nolly's amp 2 is THE classic 2203 JCM800 - Morello's is a different JCM800 (2210) - Henson's amp 3 is a Marshall - Bea's amp 2, the first Kraken channel, is modelled after a JCM900 - Nameless is a modded Plexi and Cali is also a modded Marshall. If you want to include it, Plini's amp 2, a Friedman BE100, is also essentially a modded Marshall.

For example the Nolly amps are: - Bogner Shiva - Marshall 2203 JCM800 (with added bright switch) - Peavey 5150 Blockletter - Victory V30 Countess ("modded beyond recognition of the original circuit") Plini's were a Dumble, Friedman BE100 and a blend between a Friedman HBE and a 5150 Would be interesting if they labeled their "inspiration" on the website like they did for the QC models

    I'm glad you moved up Gojira. I bought the Cali and the NTS earlier on, but God damn does the Gojira absolutely slay. Not to mention you get THREE amps and cabs AND a ton of effects AND the ability to pitch shift with the whammy pedal . It has everything I'd ever need and I honestly haven't even touched the Cali and NTS since I bought the Gojira. Definitely S tier for me, and I have no problem getting great tones when playing in drop A, G, or F. Gojira absolutely kills it!

    I own the Plini, Nolly & Gojira and absolutely love them. I agree that the Plini one is just so damn inspiring. I just dial in a cab-less clean tone or a thick lead with tons of delay/reverb and could just play for hours. The Nolly one just has the Rhythm tone I always craved for and I've never used anything else for that ever since I bought it. The Gojira is just great for some more experimental stuff. I love creating freaky octaved leads or weird "synth"-esque stuff with it

    I thought its as the most sassy, no transpose, mediocre clean ambient tones, mostly garbage you need to shut off when actually mixing guitars yet the amp tones alone aren't that great, the Petrucci offers something better in that area, then better then Petrucci is Rabea and Boogie..in the end the Boogie is the most versatile sim because it has the ability to get the tones of almost 80% if the Neural DSP sims and features like transpose etc., the rest like Fortin cali-nameless have the core tones you expect for a real mix with real bus and post effects on the console before a real master..

Plini Rabea and Petrucci all three have really amazing lead sounds, Abasi has super unique cleans and very interesting and different (albeit niche) rhythm tones. I use all of them in my workflow for different things

    NTS and Gojira were my first 2 purchases from NDSP, and later on I bought Nolly, the SLO-100, Granophyre, Cali, and most recently, Plini. I've demoed the other plugins but found that most of them weren't really for me (though I am very interested in the Tom Morello plugin). Ranking the plugins I own from most to least favorite, it would go something like this 1. Archetype: Nolly - probably the one I've used the most. I don't really use the clean or lead amps that often on it, but the crunch tones are great for more rock-style tones, and the 5150 is a 5150. I also really like the cabs on this one, though I do usually just use external IRs or plugins anyways (mainly the GGD Studio Cabs). 2. Granophyre - it's close with the Nolly plugin for me, but Nolly edges it out ever so slightly. I really love the harsh growling kind of tone that comes from the Granophyre. It especially pairs well with the GGD Studio Cabs plugins and you can really get some nasty sounding tones from it. 3. Archetype: Gojira - this one's a bit weird for me. I really love the main amp tones and as I mentioned before, it is one of the first NDSP plugins I owned. More than anything though, I primarily use this for the effects, namely the whammy and the octaver and usually put that in front of a different amp. I don't really like the crunch amp that much, and the clean amp is a bit too breakup-heavy for my tastes. 4. Archetype: Plini - in a way, this one's sort of the inverse of the Gojira for me. I primarily use this for cleans, and I think the heavy amp sounds pretty different from some of the other plugins. Oddly enough, I've found myself using it mainly for 2000s nu-metal kinds of tones, which sounds weird but it just works. Haven't messed around with the crunch tones much, but the clean tones are the main selling point for me. Pretty much the perfect plugin for the djent ambient cleans. 5. Fortin Cali - this is a bit of a mixed bag for me. I think when dialed in right, it's great for more of that "classic djent" style tone that's super jangly and bass heavy. At the same time, I've found this amp is very difficult to dial in compared to the other plugins, and it takes a while for me to get something I'm satisfied with. But for the Meshuggah kind of sound it works pretty well for me (I know the Nameless obviously does that, but I didn't like the Nameless when I demoed it personally). I don't like the crunch settings, but the cleans are pretty nice. 6. Fortin NTS - this was the first NDSP plugin I owned, and at the time was the only one that I really liked the sound of. I still do like using this from time to time, but it is also a little weird to dial in much like the Cali. The main reason why I don't come back to this plugin as much is because for whatever reason, it gives me a lot of performance issues. No other plugin does this, so I'm convinced that it's gotta be this plugin in particular. 7. Soldano SLO-100 - this is probably the plugin I've used the least. Definitely sounds good and works for the Soldano sound as you would hope for, but for my style I don't think it's quite right for me. Not the biggest fan of the cleans, though I have found interesting tones when cranking the clean channel with the crunch switch enabled. But overall, not really for me personally. The high gain is a bit too bassy for me.

    This was fantastic. I subbed to your channel cause you DO A MIX when you test a plugin, and that is what is the end result, the most important thing we'll eventually want to hear... This was a thorough review. I own NONE of these. But I've seen some top engineers use these plugins. For the money, Nolli does so many things, seems like top value.... That said, in the mix, I think ANY of these plugins will get you where you want to go for high gain.

    I demo'd the first 3 or so DSP plugins, beyond the initial "drm experience," I just couldn't get a good sound from any of them out of my setup, even with official presets. I couldn't figure out how to swap the "impulse response" thingy to change the amp sound either. Went back to Bias fx 2/amp, cause at least I can make great tones that I like, with that. Demo'd: Plini - fortin nameless - fortin cali. My set-up: Guitar -> Scarlett focusrite 2i2 3rd gen -> Plugin -> mixer board -> headphones. I liked the idea of DSP being it's super clean & easy to tweak the obvious settings, but they never updated previous archetypes with new features, & I just couldn't figure out how to make it sound good to me.

    The NTS plugin is very underrated. I love the way it sounds. Yea, it’s just metal and no reverb, but it has a lot of flexibility. Hopefully they update it someday. Also, I know people like to shit on the SLO100 plugin, but I love how amp-like it feels.

    I own Plini, Nolly and Gojira (only bought it because of the pitch shifter pedal back in time), and tried all the other ones. For me Plini covers everything in clean, crunch and tight tones, and Nolly in djenty and higher gain tones. The newer plugins just don't bring too much new on the table except of transposing

    the amp that comes with rabeas is the most real feeling imo, it doesnt do modern metal great do to the low end issues and fuzz unless ur trying to do single coil weirdness or can make up for the lack of low end clarity somehow. But there is something magical about the response to articulation that you get with the lead tones and a fresh set of strings. It bridged the SMALL gap still left on sims vs real so im pumped for the next one (fingers crossed its like Mark Holcomb or something stupid modern and focused on the same kinda thing rabea does) But yeah if you love articulation and really putting feel into leads its miles ahead.

However Gojira even sounds sick on my Squire Jazzmaster in drop C# as well haha. I’ve done everything from standard to double A# (shoutouts to Humanity’s Last Breath lol) and it’s probably my personal fav sounding plug-in from Neural DSP. They’re all rlly good and you can’t go wrong with any of them

    Gojira is king when it comes to high gain amp tone. Super brutal, it's an evh and not the original peavy 5150, to me it sounds more tight and modern with a very pleasing mid range. I do agree that for the ultra low tuned stuff someone would rather have a kore shrilling kind of tone, personally I mostly play fast metal, and never play anything lower than A# so Gojira is perfect for me. The cleans and crunch tones there are great aswell. For inspiration, rabea is mindblowing to me, the synths and tones there really make explore the instrument, I love it for leads too.l, plus has all the latest features. Those would be my first two recommendations for anyone looking to get into ndsp plugins:)

    Cali and Plini are my go-to plug-ins. I have most of the Neural DSP plug-ins. And I can say that the only one I’ll never buy is Cory Wong. Petrucci’s got the Wah covered. And even the latest : Morgan which I’ve enjoyed , didn’t compare when A/B ing against Plini. The Tone King which I got but rarely use has a very nice Reverb and the Tremolo. That Reverb I’ve used in my signal chain for Jeff Buckley Clean Telecaster tone. With everything else from the Tone King bypassed. Two plug-ins I dig solely for savage Rhythm tones : Omega and NTS but that’s it.

    Honestly, have all of these and I've found myself only using 3 of them. The Granophyre, Soldano and Nolly. The omega is essentially perfect for modern metal/Djent tones when you know how to dial it in, Soldano is perfect for thick leads and dark rythmns and nolly is just nolly, it's a jack of all trades. The first two I prefer mostly for two reasons, 1. because it gets me away from the widely used 5150 sound, which isn't to say it's a bad tone, it's just you hear it everywhere in metal these days. 2. They work and sound amazing together. Nolly mostly sees use for cleans for me or for ambient tones.
