The ironic thing is that the TH30 probably suits my current style more than the engl did.

Awesome, thanks for the replies! If that's you playing on all those tracks on there I'm very impressed young man! I realise its all synced and cut up to the drum machine but never the less...isnt that how all the metal bands do it these days? I had a feeling you would come back and do this to us one...

Hey guys!

I've been working on a new mix and decided to make a short demo of it...

The song/clip/demo is appropriately named: "The Drone"

Any feedback would be appreciated!

Every amp I've owned...

I wish I had seen the practicality of modelling before.

I wouldn't mind running a tube power amp, though.

I have a suggestion:

instead of selling the ppc410 keep it but also buy a ppc212OB and use them in a stack configuration.

you'll get the high end detail from the 10s and the open back 2x12 will "fill the room".

I've had a couple of Engls, and I haven't played a DT myself, but I can tell you I think my Thunderverb 200 isn't capable of the attack that the Engls had. A Hardwire TL-2 will get it tight enough for my purposes, but I'm not a technical metal player at all, or I'd have kept an Engl. Oranges are gr...

totally agreed.

but it will certainly keep up with the tracks by The Dork of Orange

^like i said, most people on here (myself included) would say that it could do metal just fine. but kids looking for a Peavey 6505 clone (coughcoughbadmonkeycoughcough) will always b!tch about how it's not tight enough. I don't really like the 6505 tbh... not really tight enough for periphery/djent...

I tried the dark terror at my music shop, it wasn't tight on it's own. I plugged in a hardwire cm-2 and set it to be a clean boost... it was fairly tight, sounded okay for tech/prog, I guess I would think you would get better results with an eq pedal and a compressor. with the eq pedal you can cut t...

I used to post here a lot.... TOO MUCH

until you guys told me I was an idiot, then I realised I actually was so I quit posting loads of crap.

and you'll be happy to know that I switched to ss.org

cheerio!

Lol "catch and release". Perfect description. :D Thanks for the link, Wired. The review pretty much sums up what I've heard from the demos, as well as from other people that have played a lot of comps. The only thing is, I can't get my hands on a Diamond over here in Germany to demo first, so I mig...

keeley 4 knob compressor...

not a thunderverb 50 but it uses pretty much the same tubes

I use 2 ruby el34's and one ruby ecc83 in the power section and 3 ruby ecc83's in the preamp section... they sound great and they are really smooth and tight...

hope this helps
