Perfect amp for you. You can practice scales on it.

@sqrly2u Год назад

I really like it. It is affordable because it is a trans version of the tube amps. Def. a little on the tinny side. But it is absolutely a great little amp.

@81giorikas Год назад

About the mids pressence etc. You have to remember one thing. Essentially most amps follow the marshall tonestack. You certainly bumped on weird settings that work from the rectifier to marshalls etc. So mids on full, bass zero treble at zero is flat. Treble at zero and mids on full it has...treble. Especially on the rectifier! Why>? (also happens on the JCM 800). The answer is simple and read it in a tube book, it actually makes a lot of sense. The treble is the last point in the tonestack, Mesa's marketing bullshit (they have a ton of it...really...) say it is the most powerfull!!! Like powerfull mid cut? (lol for their pedals). Well it actually is a tilt control. A mix control. That is what it does...It mixes the signal from the two points in the amps it separates. In its half turn, it is 50%/50% to what you have the tonestack set (bass, mid) and what the amp has afterwards. If you dial it all the way to zero, it doesn't muffle the sound, IF you have the mids all the way up because most marshall style mid controls allow for free treble up to that point...Way over 2-4 khz which are usually more than than enough for most amps to sound normal. The speaker cuts a shit ton after 5 khz usually. If you want super trebly you mix to the right (meaning treble 100%) and you up the mids along with taking bass out, etc. Dimed all the way up (all knobs) usually adds a lot of everything. On marshalls you usually have a lower frequencies cut vs the mesa (which use the older classic fender bass amps values). Anyway I hope you did a video on showing a lot of extreme tonestack positions for relative amps. I know you tune by ear and to small increments but you sometimes end up pretty much matching the amp to the mesa cab and sounding a bit similar. Of course amps are not judged from their tonestacks only...On older marshalls the more you upped the volume the more the circuit after the tonestack distorted...so it started to act like a pre distortion tonestack. Vintage modern does that. Kind of like what the mark amps brag about. Take out some of the bass to tighten things up etc. By the way great channel and time to demo some tech21 stuff man...the PSA 1.1 is a personal distortion per band generator, something like an analog matching machine from the old times!

@oscarrameno6865 6 месяцев назад

I think these mini amps are honestly a great studio weapon and even great for shows. They’re very minimal, light, and do the job line they’re supposed to. I know the average guitarist wants a chunky thick bass for their chugs but I believe that should ONLY be a bedroom thing. When you’re in a full band mix you do not want a lot of bass coming from the guitar, you want a bunch of middle because that’s the guitars job for a mix. Let the bass guitar handle the low end like it should and let the guitar handle the middle frequencies. Even the micro 6505 piranha is perfect for a mix because it’s just Volume, Gain, and Midsweep EQ. We have to start considering the whole ensemble when we think tone.

@frankenstein4106 Год назад

It's a fun little amp, wish they had these back in the day when the Marshall Lead 12 was a hot item. I run mine into a VHT 1x12 cab with an Eminence SwampThang, and it can get pretty loud for what it is! It won't replace my SLO 30, but when I want that tone without waking the wife, it's great!!

@mattanthony5267 Год назад

I bought one and I'm honestly glad I have it. Really like the amp for what it is! The crunch channel is definitely better for tight metal but I feel the OD channel is good for doom. Solid little amp and it saves me thousands on buying an actual SLO-100!

@eliglor9863 4 месяца назад

Doom you say? I'm on the fence between this one and the mini bogner. I've got a Orange Microdark but I keep ending up with the tube going microphonic when I crank the Microdark.

@MacawAviculture Год назад

This and others like it are the future of guitar amps. I use mine with a Boss RV-500 for reverb and delay, and 2 Marshall 4x12 cabs, and 2 Mesa 1x12 cabs. I absolutely love this amp. My next purchase will be the Bogner Ecstasy Mini, and I will run these in stereo using a Radial Switchbone V2. Awesome to get such incredible classic rock sounds like heard on the ZZ Top Tres Hombres recording with so little cost and no tube maintenance or amp bias needed. Thanks for sharing all of your videos!

I really like the way this mini amp sounds just listening to your demo i could live without the low end but it would be nice to have more thanks Kyle

@rangerdoc1029 Год назад

Love that you took the time to really dial in the crunch tone. Most people blow right past that to get to the lead channel. On the real SLO, the rythm channel is where I live. With a boost in front, I prefer it over the lead channel.

Hi Kyle, I own the SLO Mini, and yeah, the Mini is lacking Bass, a lot. Being an Audio Tech 40 plus years. I modified mine. I and basically changed the input coupling caps on the first input stage. That lowered the high pass cutoff frequency. Giving more low-end. The tone stack was left alone. I also added a cap for a low pass at the input to the power amp to get rid of the harshness the Mini has and to slow the attack, way too much overshoot across the whole frequency range. Sounds great now. If there's any interest in the mods guy's please ask.

Never really cared about these mini-heads but cool demo. You bring up a good point about the solid state stuff being tight; I'm finding myself more and more preferring solid state amps and preamp-style pedals than I do full tube amps. I think my ideal amp would be some big tight solid-state preamp running through a 50- or 100-watt EL34 power amp section.

@TheVoiceInYourHeadd Год назад

Run a Two Notes leclean tube preamp in front of a solid state power amp. It is the best of both worlds.

@ricdale7813 Год назад

Its a bedroom practice amp. Better than the MG Marshalls of similar wattage and priced the same. Marshall sells bucket loads of 10-50 watt SS amps and so does Fender,Orange,etc...... For the $250 these cost you get essentially a preamp pedal built into a 30 watt class D power amp. The tones these mini's deliver is pretty damn good for what they are.

@MarcusKimballmusic Год назад

Based on the sounds coming out of one of my freind's rig, the 100 watt HFX head is actually a very good sounding amp. I doubt the lower wattage ones hold up tho.

@Stretchwreckedem469 Год назад

One thing i've noticed about solid state amplifiers in general is that they seem to have a lot more midrange in comparison to a lot of tube amplifiers. Even when i use something like an Exciter in the loop of my Randall RG80 combo when i'm practicing to bring out the low end and adjust the EQ as if i was playing a Mesa Mark series amp, i could always hear more midrange in comparison to if i was using a tube amp that had a similar tone. I figured this out because i've put an optical compressor in the FX Loop of solid state amps to simulate the effect of power tubes running hot and it didn't sound anywhere near as tight as when i was just using the exciter in the loop. On top of that, i noticed that the compressor added just a little bit of high end sizzle that the amp didn't have on it's own, but it wasn't enough for me to justify using only the exciter to get where i want with the amp. It was when i started messing around with this stuff that i realized that i love solid state more than tubes.

@mustangguy3706 Год назад

I wish I have something like that when I first started lol... I would use to go jam and have fun sounds good enough for that.

@needsLITHIUM Год назад

There is a really easy way to get a blend of both channels. Buy two of these amps and an A/B/Y pedal. For studio, just double or quad track. Done. Not in everyone's budget, but it's definitely doable. I run a two amp blend rig, myself, but with two different Joyo BanTamP's. One amp, my Meteor, the main tone, I have set in stone with a Precision Drive and a post EQ, and I am REALLY happy with, even on it's own. The other amp, a Jackman, I have 3 different REALLY AWESOME tones I get out of it, depending on which channel I run and which pedal(s) I put in front of it. I can't decide and it's driving me nuts because they all sound amazing, recorded and live.

From Areally hot old JVM to a more bassheavy modern marshall with the Friedman twist. The man is a tone wizard.

Great video Kyle. I’m happy to own a Soldano SLO Mini it’s fun and it’s actually mean sounding through my Randall RS125XL with that 15” adding extra low end punch and I really was impressed with it.

@JoelCSabo Год назад

Heads up, I tried the B.E. Mini and the SLO mini, and both of those effects loops really squashed and "neutered" my Kraken preamp. I'm not certain as to why, but that is what happened repeatedly. I even discovered that my Orange TH30 head does the same thing to The Kraken which has me wondering a few things. I finally moved all the cables over to my PRS MT15 and had full snarl back in my Kraken. So, if you plan on using the loop for preamps, I advise against that. You'll be fine if you just want modulation and/or an EQ. Have fun no matter what.

@@JoelCSabo Thanks for the info. Yeah I know what you mean, some preamps sound really bland through some returns, I've ran into that myself.

Gimmicks

@chriswoods1234 Год назад

Funny ppl claiming these to be "toys" or a gimmick. I've seen 2 channels (this channel being one of them) in which this SLO hung in with a full band.

@guitardave Год назад

Have you seen Rabea’s demo of the SLO Mini? He gets it sounding really close to the tube SLO-100. Not exactly the same, but come on, it’s like 4 grand cheaper! I think the Mini is a great idea for people wanting the ballpark SLO tone without having to spend a fortune.

@chriswoods1234 Год назад

No I haven't seen it yet but will check it out!

@daveydohrman2241 Год назад

All these tiny amps are nothing more than a distortion/overdrive pedal that comes with a power amp... not a bad thing.... it’s a cool concept...

@belligerentamateur Год назад

Is it 1927 again?

@adamalexanderray Год назад

@@belligerentamateur I’ve requested you remove the hat at least 10 times now. Please add the question “what does his head look like without at hat” in your FAQ videos because we need to know.

@@adamalexanderray There's a picture of him without a hat on his Instagram. There's your answer. He doesn't hide the fact that he's bald. He just simply prefers to wear a hat.

@@stealyourfacekev Sadly likely not. I remember my 6505 mh. The internet shat on it non stop but honestly it sounded great for the price point. Now have a 5150 50 watt and of course it sounds better but I find people expecting these mini amps to sound exactly like the full size head ridiculous

It’s an affordable $100 power section with a $150 Soldano pre-amp section from the Soldano SLO pedal added to it. Fixed it.

I really don’t understand why reviewers of pedals and amps set the tone knobs to noon. Literally no one runs it that way in the real world, so it doesn’t really work as a “baseline”. Each genre has its sort of standard/common EQ curves representative of the genre that most players are in the ballpark of, and I think that’s a better starting point for demos. From there show how responsive the gear is to changes.

@belligerentamateur Год назад

Make a video showing us how it should be done!

@belligerentamateur Год назад

Your statement is inaccurate, because each amp is going to be eq'd different based on it's voicing, the cabinet and pickups it's being run with, the room, etc. and a lot of the time, it's wildly different, not subtle. Go ahead and run the same settings on a bunch of different amps for your desired "genre" and tell me what you find. I bet you'll have extremely varied EQ settings to get to a similar tone on a varied range of amplifiers.

@Wyl7 Год назад

@@belligerentamateur why? Did you not understand my rather basic explanation? But by all means, play your amps and pedals with all the tone/EQ settings at noon and have fun if that’s what you want to do. Btw, I agree that other factors such as cabs and speakers influence your EQ. I wasn’t suggesting that universal settings are specific. But take the SLO for example… it’s a hard rock/hair metal amp. A reasonable real world *starting* point would be bass between 10:00-11:00, mids between 9:00-10:00, and treble between 2:00-4:00. Anyway, carry on…
