Re: Dual Dark 50...
How's the effects loop on the Dual Dark, good for delays? I have a Ceriatone Silver Jub clone with a tube buffered loop and my Flashback delay sounds like butt in the loop. My Fulltone Fatboost works well for a boost there, but I was really disappointed with the delay there. Tried a Boss DD-3 as well, no dice.
Also, is it possible to get close to R30 dirty tones with this amp? The youtube vid by Fluff made this thing sound kinda fizzy and undefined to me, but I really like the features on this amp.

Re: Dual Dark 50...
Here's a few rough mic tests I've done with placement and EQ changes:

Yes, both channel volumes right up with the gain down lower, and on 50 or 25 watts...basically clean as a whistle if you like, but I always prefer a bit of edge.Mystic38 wrote:

Re: Dual Dark 50...
I don't want to play a Dual Dark, I know the GAS will be unstoppable if I do!
Congrats!

Re: Dual Dark 50...
I'm not sure about the R30 bit, having never played one. I can tell you that it is not by any means undefined. My carbon Copy delay sound brilliant through the loop. Just sounds like a great analog delay to my ears.apocalypsedude wrote:How's the effects loop on the Dual Dark, good for delays?

Does sound really good. Too tight for me, but that's a beast of an amp for classic rock, hard rock and more.

Re: Dual Dark 50...
Yes, tight does describe it very accurately. Great amp and very flexible, but another amp is in order to cover all bases. I might have to be rid of the YJM in favor of a RVMKIII (hint Hint)...

Re: Dual Dark 50...
Bear in mind this was recorded at bedroom levels. Cranking the volumes to 7 or 8 with the band brings in some sag and compression to the attack, as-well as getting the speaker moving properly.Les Paul Lover wrote:I believe that's another demo from John.Ronnie Robinson wrote:Yep Really does sound good.ironlung40 wrote:Orange Dual Dark 50 - Les Paul Test: http://youtu.be/TL-kgPGjagM" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
