@BaritoneGoatStudio I have seen a lot of reviews of the Rigel and yours is simply the best. The way you use the preamp with the different options, gives us a very clear idea of what this little demon can do. * I would like you to make another video, where you compare your EVH and Mesa preamp with this rigel using it from the effects loop, with the same IR on the PC, a good quality York audio, would be ideal. This way we would know if it stands up well compared to the real one, costing just 60 bucks. That comparison would be very interesting. You're the best. I hope your channel grows. Greetings
That is an interesting premise. See if these cheaper preamps would make for an affordable replacement for recording when running into a Cab IR. I have a handful of York IRs on hand too. I am also looking to do a video on the Chopper Z pedal. Maybe I can do a Preamp vs full tube amp comparison!
@@BaritoneGoatStudio OK, I'll be looking forward to that video. * The quality we can get today at such a low price is insane man. It's definitely the best time to be a guitarist. cheers
Sounds like I should get one! :D Solid tones. Aurora just put out that Cerbes plugin which emulates the OG KSR hardware. Would be cool to compare those sometime. And the Orange cab IR you used at the end is so chunky. Love Orange cabs \M/ peace
I had a Ceres and loved it but lacked low end even bass maxed and even with the Eros bass maxed still didn’t do it for me. I have the Vesta and Hera and love this combo much better than the Ceres/Eros. I’m definitely going to grab one of these especially today for the Amazon prime day it’s $50 and this thing has much more bass on halfway than the Ceres did maxed out. Anyways awesome demo as always and what power amp sim did u use when u used with the wall of sound and IRs? Does it have the power amp section like the cab m+ has? Wish I still had that pedal too cuz it was great for silent jamming with just a preamp pedal and headphones.
The two notes software does have the power amp section, and I usually just roll with the dual 6L6 option. On almost any application, the 6L6 works the best for high gain stuff to me.
That was the thing that prompted me to make the video. Once I put it into the DAW and heard how it sounded, I was like… yeah this is worth showing off!
I did. I have a regular Tonex pedal. I am not sure about the mini pedal form factor. I need to play one and see if I like it. It probably sounds great, I just am typically not a mini pedal fan.
@@harryanderson7282don’t be man, tech gets cheaper. It’s only the same as buying an M1 Mac and that being cheaper than the newer models, it’s not analogue, it’s digital and tech gets cheaper over time
@@harryanderson7282 I don't know if I will get along with the mini pedal as well as the full size. It is an unexpected direction to take given that most things have been getting bigger and more focused on comprehensive User Interfaces, and the Tonex is like... "no, you will load this thing up on the computer and throw it into your gig bag, and possibly lose it if you're not careful". They really are banking on the idea that many of us do end up setting and forgetting. I know that when I have used the Tonex live, I have three amp tones that are dialed in for my needs, and I also still like using pedals around the Tonex. I may grab the Tonex one just to be sure that I still need my full size... IDK!
@@BaritoneGoatStudio Well that's the thing, I got a about +/- 10 guitar/bass presets I use anways, so a mini ToneX pedal would be perfect for me. Sigh..... I mean I know I'm going to end up buying one, but I'm cheap and I'll keep bitching about it anyways. :)
