Honestly this amp looks like it’s good for people that have been playing for a time. As a beginner I want what I had on my old Marshall tube amp from the 90’s… just using the knobs to experiment.

@caerphoto 3 года назад

I have a Silverline Special and it’s interesting seeing the differences in Architect for the ID versus my amp. For example, Silverlines don’t have the Cab Rig stuff, but do have power amp tube emulation selectors and can save 120 patches (which seems a bit excessive tbh). Also even though I can adjust Resonance and Presence on the actual amp, I can’t do it in Architect? But you can with the ID Core amp? Weird.

@theclumsypenman6868 3 года назад

I have Special too, a same observation. Bizarre

@theblytonian3906 2 года назад

Interesting. It is called Cab Rig Lite, so I wonder if there's a Cab Rig Pro/Premium coming? I have Blackstar's ID Series 260TVP which was superseded by the Silverline Series which is pretty much the same thing as the Silverline Stereo Deluxe (SHARC) with a speaker (Celestion vs original Blackstar OEM?) and cosmetic change. Whilst legacy compatible with my original ID:Core 40 (V1), the more contemporary features like Cab Rig in Architect aren't supported/compatible in its hardware/firmware. So I didn't expect Architect to support the 260TVP specifically either as it long preceded the release of Architect software. However I'm surprised Blackstar didn't provide that support in Architect for the Silverline Series were it possible. Which begs he question if it could be accomplished with a firmware rewrite, or if its a limitation within Silverline hardware.

That was a very useful guide to Architect, Andy. I hope this isn't a daft question but is it possible to upload a "plugin" rather than a "patch" to Architect/ID Core? I'm thinking of something like Valhalla Room reverb but frankly have no idea how to utilise it so i thought maybe it'd be possible with Architect

Thanks. No, it’s not possible to load plugins into the amp. Valhalla would be cool though!

Hey Mr Guitar Geek.. I really like your content , and I subscribed because I want to come back to check out more of your content when , and as I can. However this series of Video's are currently relevant to me , as I just purchased the blackstar coreV3 amp myself. I have a question for you since you seem to be FAR more informative than the Blackstar website or even the architect manual, which seems at best extremely Vague. I watched all your architect videos a few days ago, but I see no mention on what the procedure is to recall a patch that has been saved to the AMP (from architect) I have modified a few patches and saved it to Architect AND also used the option to save it to my amp ..But NOWHERE in any of the Info given by Blackstar do I find the technique to recall it from the amp itself. Do you have any insight? I really like the amp but Blackstar has the very epitome of the worst designed and informed website that I have ever seen. thanks much for any response or help .

I really like your great videos about the Blackstar ID Core. But I’m not a huge fan of this kind of combos anymore. I still own a Fender Mustang I V2 Combo, which works fine. But in the meantime Fender has discontinued the associated software. Although the combo works without it, it still feels like they took away a part I paid for. Since then I have a hard time with devices that offer a software extension.

Blackstar makes some good stuff - I've owned both ID:Core15 and valve amp combos from them. However, as someone who has pretty much owned nearly all of the desktop practice amps on the market over the last 4 to 5 years, IMO the current king of the hill overall by a mile is the PG Spark. No question. The previous best in class desktop practice amp is the Yamaha THR series and they're still great. Just at about 2x the price of the Spark and with less features in general. Sorry, at the moment, in this category, everything else takes a backseat to the Spark IMO.

@@BrandonAdams1010 Hey, absolutely! I wasn't trying to take a dump on the Blackstar - like I said, I've owned Blackstar gear. And yes, at around 100-150USD, the Blackstar desktop practice amps are surprisingly good, especially the versions with the stereo sound - lots of fun! But still, I stand by what I wrote - in the desktop practice amp category at the moment, Spark reigns supreme. Cheers and rock on!
