not doing a whole lot for me, top end is too rolled off and it has a weird hollowness that dosent hit very hard

That first clip was recorded using an SM57.

I know the correct way to judge tone is with a cell phone video.

The one you’re selling me is like this one here ?

I believe that's the amp I've got to try out last Saturday. Don't know how many of them Todd did with the same controls layout.
Sounded great. Instant 80s bay area trash tone.

Yep this is Sams(Braintheory). He loves it.

There’s a better chance today of getting an amp modded by Todd than of getting anything back from Cameron. Yes I’m aware of the circumstances.

Take. Out. The.fucking.midrange.



Listen to that tone and then listen to the actual albums tone….. the midrange is bloated as fuck in this. 350-500hz, 1.0 Q, drop few DB out…. It’ll sound much better.

I don't make the news, bro.

I just report it.

Well, this is fake news with too much bloat in the story.

It's not for everyone.

Pretty generic sounding in that clip tbh

this is where i think the "in the mix" and the "in the room" guys get divided, im sure all those low mids fill the room out and can sound good on their own but recorded its just too much boxiness and dosent work well for much in my experience.

It’s just super obvious to me. I only brought it up because this could sound REALLY killer with even just that small move I mentioned. I just don’t know how people can’t hear that, it’s just bloated and boxy as hell. But like I said, I can tell this could sound way sick if done right.

The mids could go down a touch; but I can hear the amps aggressive nature even if too middy.
Definitely those mids are probably perfect for playing out…but at home even a Marshall guy like me would drop them some.

 

[Racerxrated]

THAT sounds killer.

 

[Arch Stanton]

THAT sounds killer.

A friend from one of the technical amp forums gave me the layout and schematic for a Langner preamp.

Thinking of building it and playing around with it.
