Which Neural plugin is your ‘go-to’? 🤔
Fortin Cali Suite! Best money I’ve ever spent on a plug-in. So versatile and perfect for every genre!
@@tomgorringemusic283 Absolutely love that plugin - lead tones are 🔥
One thing I was surprised that wasn’t in here was plini lead tones. I love the dreamy medium gain leads of the middle amp (the cream one). It just works so well with a lot of progressive music and I love improvising with it as well
Rabea, Plini and one day Archetype: Gardiner maybe
Soldano. Must have.
Thanks for the love man! Outstanding playing as always and love the vibes :) ❤❤
Dude, your playing is stellar.
Thank you
Lovely playing, Jack! Very inspiring
Jack!!! Bilbao was suuuuper getting to know you in person! 😊 Hope all went well with the touring and all! All the best dude! \m/ \m/
Love this guy!! What a talent and just such a humble player! Thanks for this awesome demonstration of these fine archetypes! I'm definitely checking out your work Jack. You rock man! Uh,
I'm inspired 😊. Going to go record now!. ✌ 🎸🎶
Thanks a lot for sharing!
👊🏻
amazing review !
With every vid uploaded, we are witnessing Jack turning into a guitar god.
I need him to come to my hometown and do a masterclass. Now, deadgummit!
turning? lol
@@bayhakansimsek Yes turning. This guy doesn't stop practicing and just keeps getting better and better. He is a true musician in that he is both being and becoming.
@@markg2861 interesting point of view. definitely worth some thought. Thanks!
Heck, dude!! I'm pulling guitar faces watching this. I'll be learning some of those licks you played on this one. Thanks for this video, I was going to be next one to ask :)
Seeing you live with Plini and the guys pushed me to getting the Cortex, sounds killer lad. And great show in Bristol and Manchester!
Very beautiful your creative play is 😊 and thanks for your personal opinion about Neural Plugins.
Due to your great videos, I own 5 of the NDSP Plugins and mostly, I'm using the Fortin Cali Suite and Tone King Imperial.
Beautiful sound man 👏
I just bought the Mesa Boogie Mark IIC+ Suite. Fairly satisfied. Like the transpose dial on top. Convenient since it sounds better to transpose one's guitar than it does the song.
I love the Soldano it sounds killer for riffs and leads. I like Plini for the cleans and ambience. I also have Nolly and Cali but I don't use them as much as those first 2.
Thanks, i needed this vid 👌🏼
awesome video as always Jack, honestly made me really think about picking up the tone king, the tones were sounded super crispy. shoutout to the petrucci plugin though i know it wasn't featured in this one but imo one of the best in terms of diversity (plus the transposer is a sick feature)
My go to sims have been the Omega Granophyre and the Cali. They are solid plugins and for heavy music. the simplicity of the omega for rhythms, paired with the Cali for solos are an amazing combination….
hey dude I saw you live in Switzerland this year, great set!
Love the AZ also my go to plugin is Archetype Plini and Fortin Cali Suite.
I've listened to this a few times now..
I'm a metal guy, for sure.
But damn I love listening to you play.
Sure, sure there a ton of great players.... Something about your voicing and cadence... Chef's kiss man
I use Tim Henson and Cory Wong the most by far. I find I can cover pretty much anything I want to play between the two of them, and they both have super fun unique pedals/modules. I also love Rabea's plugin for high gain and more experimental stuff. The synth on there is a tonne of fun.
Just wanted to say that it is always so good listening to your playing. Was a pleasure meeting you and checking out your guitar in Vienna earlier this year :)
Nolly all the way. So versatile.. It responds naturally too. 🤘😎🎸
Really useful comparison. Can I recommend giving us some chords in addition to the leads in future reviews? Sometimes it's good to hear how an amp sounds when it's being strummed with those indie-stab styles.
Great, insightful, review and demo, thanks!
I think these plugins are great, my favorites are the Plini and Petrucci. I've managed to get close to both with Helix Native but it's tedious.
As it turns out, the PolyChrome DSP McRocklin Suite was released as I was looking at something different from my mainstay the BlueCat Audio Axiom, and it covers 97% of the sounds I want, except funk. I got it at the intro price which made it even better. Worth a look IMO.
I heard the Plini was due for an update, I'll likely get both the Plini and Petrucci when they're on sale.
Cheers!
love that chord progression closing out the intro......i've demo'd a lot of them and the Rabea is probably the only one i'd buy but even at 50% off i still wouldn't use it enough to justify the expense
great content, my fave is the toneking as well, going around plini tone king and cory wong for my main sound and cali for something a tad bit heavier. Noticed your trem there with the click, had that with my AZ as well and was really annoyed haha. Cheers
Love everything you play jack❤i m huge fan and inspires me everytime watch your playing🤘Are you using some IRs here or its just plugins?
I've got the Petrucci, now I'm struggling to decide on the Soldano or Gojira for a distorted tone. Leaning Soldano. Love that 90s sound.
There is option paralysis nowadays from so many plugins.I use plini but realistically i can use any of those and be perfectly happy especially when i can get quality impulse responses to use that basically shape sound the most in the first place.Better to just pick one,play and practice like mad than getting lost to all these options and in the end not getting anything done....
I have the Tim Henson and Rabea Massad plugins, and I love them both. Honestly I could live with just Rabea's, but I prefer Tim's clean channels. Either one would do just fine.
My clean tones sit closer to edge of breakup and sit at higher gain than you typically go. I picked up rabea as my first neural plugin and am supremely happy. Don't plan on using it much but that synth could be cool for some tracks. Now I gotta save for Tim Henson and get my buddy to save for some of these
I just got the gojira plug-in. I don't play metal. More like heavy ambient blues. But you can get beautiful cleans and ambient tones with gojira. I have the nolly too and gojira beats it ten fold. Great Playing and video brother. ✌️❤️🤟
god damn, Jack is a beast of a player
I just bought Petrucci and Gogira last night - WOW! (Added to Soldano, Tim Henson, Cory Wong)
If I had to pick one, it would be bea. Chimes is probably my favorite preset right now, but i modify it a little bit. Also like tone king and petrucci. The count of tuscany and piezo pickups are nice on petrucci.
I have the tim, rabea, plini, and petrucci and those cover pretty much everything.
i like this guy!
Jack What about a great bluesy tone for blues like SRV, and Also some modern blues what would be ur pick among these one? Great video as always ❤
Great player
There was a 50% sale off the last 3 days on almost all the plugins. Between Tim Henson and Petrucci I honestly think I could get every sound I need.
love that intro playing and tone! What plugin was used there?
I play clean jazz and blues mostly, and tried and loved the Cory Wong, but after going through all of them on the free 2 week trials I bought the Petrucci because it has so many options I could get the sounds from any of the others with a bit of time. Plus the 4th amp (Piezo) is incredible for acoustic/electric.
what's your take on how these modern modelers perform compared to real tube amps?
@@roba1899 You lose the feeling of sitting beside a warm amp, the way new cars don't feel like an old sports car, but on headphones and recordings I can't tell a difference and it's way too convenient.
in my plugin wishlist There needs to be achetype: "Ultima" ( what i would call jack Gardiners since hes an FF fan, archetype :INTRVLS(aaron marshall) , and archetype :Victoria ( josh de la victoria)
This is a great overview - thank you, Jack! And these all run on an Apple Silicon MBP?
Hello Jack.. I love Neural DSP and have a lot of their plugins but... did you ever try the new McRoclin suite plugin? It's a blast.
I totally agree! The McRocklin Suite kicks ass
Going to get into plugins. What interface are you guys using?
I love your playing and feel. What is this ibanez model you use?
Man, I've got all of these, but I need to get them to sound more like this! (My fault, not Neural's). 🔥
Cory Wong and Petrucci are the one I use the most. Petrucci and the transpose feature saves a lot of time when practicing.
I so wish the Tim Henson had transpose, Polyphia does some songs in d standard and c# standard, and I have to switch over to petrucci or recently rabea just so for the transpose function since I'm to lazy to tune down all the strings
the transpose is so damn useful, it really should be baseline for all their plugins.
What is the transpose feat?
@@matthewmp111 It's a pitch shifter. Lets you 'retune' your guitar without actually retuning it. Great for practice, and honestly doesn't sound too bad if you don't push it far.
Hello ! I actually play the Nolly Archetype. Unfortunately I did not find your presets on you website. Where can I get them please ?
Thanks for all your videos , they’re great !
13:10 - 13:15 sounded so sick
Oh man, I hear Eric Johnson into you. Nice playing!
Jack you're awesome dude, how did you come up with that line starting at 6:49? sounds great.
Awesome video. But one question, why is Petrucci not on this list? I can create beautiful clean/crunch tones with all amps within that beast of a plugin. I assume people correlate it with high-gain stuff and immediately discard it as a good clean/crunch plugin.
I have most of the DSP plugins, but I use Petrucci 99% of the time.
Jack, you should show the inputs/outputs so we can see the gain stage. What are you using as a preamp before going into the computer?
Hey man! For my audio interface, I’m using the Quad Cortex. With all of these presets I don’t tend touch the input/outputs on the plugin or the Quad itself - everything’s usually left at the default level. If say the input or output level has changed in some way, it’ll be in the artist preset for you to check out! ☺️
Hi Guys, i`ve never played through a plugin but now im considering to. What do i need Setup-wise to start? Laptop, Guitar, The Plugin Software, an Audio Interface and what else?
I hear some nice Eric Johnson licks in there !!!!
hoooooo that intro
Thanks brother! 💙
Hey man I NEED MORE JACK AND OWANE PLEASE
Right now i'm mostly jamming or playing for fun. And in that category it's Petrucci for me. Beside it beeing Boogie/Fender and not Marshall you can get any sound out of it. From ultra clean - funky - rock and well metal.
When i'm sound picky it's Nolly. When i need them i will get Fortin Cali and Tone King as well. But for what i do Petrucci got me covered.
Also for creative reasons i picked up Tim Henson. If Rabea had been out i would have picked Bea. I really love his tones and the synth sounds really interessting. But the multivoicer and that Hensons tone is far from my comfort zone is a welcome challange to play different and ger creative.
I have the Rabea plugin and the new McRocklin plugin and am spoilt for choice at the moment.
Even tho I'm actually looking for the heavier (or even heaviest) side of the plugins, I feel like (just starting the video) that this is still worth watching for a making a better decision on them
EDIT: Also fun fact, it's their birthday sale again, so the video is still fitting and feels like new :D
Bruh, that plini tone is amazing wow. Its a preset?
Could you be so kind as to tell me what exact Ibanez model you’re playing. I’m love the wat the wood grain pops on that blue finish and tone.
It’s a Custom AZ Ibanez made for me man! 🙏
Rabea for more vintage rock tones and Cali for modern metal. I don't really need any others, but I also have Nolly and Parallax. Don't use them that much tho.
OMG those synth and Ambi tones hahahah FF7 FTW
I was torn between JP and Tone King, but then i saw the 50% off sale and got both 😎
which month was the sale on? Was it a yearly sale?
@@straylight7116 I think they may have an Easter sale, or possibly a birthday sale in April? If not then I think Black Friday is a safe bet, though obviously that's a bit of a wait.
Still Petrucci because it's so versatile and beasty!
I have the Cory Wong plugin... I really like the Tone King but then I wouldn't be using the Cory Wong as much anymore since they're pretty much in the same category. So I'm thinking the Fortin Cali is something I wanna go for.
Then again, your playing makes me think I should buy a lesson from you instead hahaha I really want to learn how to play like in your intro and the Fortin Cali
wanna hear your thoughts about the Archetype Petrucci
Hey Jack!
I have a question regarding the Imperial MKII: How are you staging the amp from input to your interface through the plug-in?
I actually have an Imperial MKII for live performances and although I love the way the plug-in sounds; I don't feel that it reacts the same as the physical amp does. The amp definitely pushes the low frequencies up more than my other amps but with the plug-in, I always feel like the bass is overwhelming compared to the high frequencies.
I would absolutely love your input on this!
Hi , not sure if this helps but I'm going straight into a cheap focusrite scarlett so I try to leave the gain on minimum and crank it from the volume knob to avoid extra noise. The best thing for me going straight in like this is the ability to process the signal PRE pre-amp. I know what you mean about the low end getting a bit much on the TK mk2 but I recently got a little strat copy and it suits the Tone King perfectly. Especially compared to my ibanez with a seymore duncan Nazgul lol. Way too dark and "wooly" without a high-pass filter in-front and some tweaking. The input gain helps with this a lot. The amp (plugin at least) just sounds way better out of the box with a brighter single coil imho, but experiment with the built in input gain stage, so reactive. That said, if you take some time to dial it in, I love how it actually handles the low end on my 7 string with the SD nazgul. (Fun fact, a 0.84 gauge string dropped to A, actually broke my babies back,,, but it sounded amazing till then lol) .. Meaty af but still had cut and articulation like a ginsu! Really impressed by the pedals too for either type of pickup. A gentle low shelf EQ, a bell cut around 200-400hz or a 6-12db high-pass around 100-300hz usually does the trick. BEFORE the amp tho! And even sometimes again between the amp and cabinet if I want to keep more amp breakup in the low-end. It's a similar effect to changing the impedance curves of amp and cab but with total tonal control. Nothing changes in the time domain tho obviously unless you get creative ;P resonance is a world of its own to explore tho lol. Anyway. Hope that helps mate.
Peace🤘
What kind of chord do you use to connect it to the computer??
The real question is, should I have a Neural plugin or not? 😂
They are all wonderful and all have features that make them different and unique. Personally I own several: the Petrucci, the Bea (which I love madly), the Henson, the MesaBoogie and the Darkglass for the bass. (Maybe I’m going for the Morgan too)
The point is that these plugins are wonderful. They have an extremely realistic and rich sound, with top quality! It’s impossible for me to go and look elsewhere, after trying so many.
That said: Great video as always !! 😁❤️🤟
Need a DSP Gardiner somebody??? They have to make one signature for Jack🙏🏻
Martin Miller’s new Ibanez model looks a lot like yours! They should’ve made that your model 🤷🏻♂️
Hi Jack, I see you changed the pick, what are you using in this video? Thanks
Hey man! It’s a Custom Jack Gardiner Jazz III that Dunlop made for me. Basically a standard Jazz III with my logo on haha! ☺️
For 90% of my stuff i use the Cory Wong, also have the Plini and i can do almost anything. Amazing playing as always dude and that Ibanez of fours...so beautiful!
sickass intro 😥😢😨😰😭🙏🙇♂
are all the tones you used part of the several default presets ?
Or you have created your own for this video ? (I saw couple of Jack Gardiner presets as well)
Great play and great review though !
You should always modify the presets to your liking. You don't know know the signal chain of the artist used when they made it. Ive had plugins get ruined just by switching guitars because the pickups have different outputs.
@@thesmellycatjazz Fully Agree but actually I was using only Guitar Rig 6 so far and have spent already many many time to create my presets (i could even reach some of the Cory Wong sounds). I have tried other DSP plugins and except the Cory Wong one, it was impossible to find the kind of tone I like (actually the one's from Jack are similar, we can really say tone is in the finger :) )and felt lazy spending more time to play with the settings rather than playing my guitar. So i'll stick to guitar rig 6 for the moment 😅
@@ilyasrayan4791, try the Tone King. It has great presets from the beginning. You don't have to be a magician to make it sound good. Just my opinion.
@@sgguitar thanks for the feedback !
I will give it a try !
The beautiful hair, the soothing voice, the chops, looking 20 years older than you actually are, this dude is literally Guthrie 2.0.
"Jack of all trades"
i see what you did there.
Bea is too good
Hallo!🔥🔥🔥🔥😉!Have you Pressest for Kemper?
helo bro
Can't focus on the plugins man. How can I when one plays guitar this good???
Just downloaded a trial of Logic Pro
Open up neural dsp plugin (tone king )
Bounced it to AIFF
Put it into iMovie with some video footage
Uploaded to TH-cam
It doesn’t sound anywhere near the quality of this video
What am I doing wrong ? I don’t have a clue what I’m doing
Hey man! I think it comes down to lots of different factors here. It depends which audio interface you are using. It depends on what your input levels are set like on the audio interface. It depends on the pickups, the guitar, etc. Then it depends on the output settings inside Logic Pro (making sure nothing is peaking on the master). I think if you look a little into each of these subjects it could definitely help! It can be quite daunting at first, but it’s just like guitar - practice and just doing more of it is the only way to get better at it! ☺️
@@JackGardiner Thanks Jack, very kind of you to steer me in the right direction 🙂
It all makes sense .
A hundred pennies make a pound. It’s seems to be the optimising of a lot of little things will add up to the final result.
Well , maybe some things will contribute on a larger scale , there may be a few 5, 10, and 20p’s in there too 😄
I know from experience the significant variables that come from the guitar/pickups/strings/etc. I used a 24” squier strat so now I think about it that will sound a bit thin and weak. I’ve noticed you can really hear the effect a higher end quality guitar has through digital modelling.
I will play about with it and look to input gain, levels etc. I’m using an axe io interface (about £250) . I see your going through the quad cortex so perhaps that’s giving a little extra something but don’t know how much. I’m clueless . Would be fun to have a job where you can sit and review/test all this great and figure it out !
Thanks again, have a great day
Greetings from Scotland 🏴
One that is M1 native compatible...... :-(
I must be the only person who bought the Abasi and found it super underwhelming. Can’t get anything close to his kind of clean thumping sound, and the distorted big gain sound is just not my style.
Yeah I pretty much never use it honestly.
Didn't ya use the free trail before buying for 14 days?
Buy the Tone King. It's better than all the others imo. You have presets with cool sounds from the beginning. You don't have to be a magician to make it sound good.
@@sgguitar make me
@@sgguitar yeah I looked at that one. May buy it one day!
I think maybe the Abasi works a lot better if you know what kind of sound you can mix with, because right off the bat nothing sounds great, but it may work better in the back end which I don’t really know how to get to!
5150ii amp sim..... please make it happen!
Gojira and Nolly both have a 5150
@@23Darrus oh wow must have missed it... whats it called in the sim?
@@Hellofreak the high gain amps in both of those plugins are based on the 5150
Using Neural plugins my guitar sounds better than most, but still sounds NOTHING like what you've demonstrated in your playing. Skill aside of course, my tone still sounds shitty and distorted, I cannot get your clean, edge of breakup tones at all. What could I be doing wrong?
Turn your input Levi’s knob to zero on your interface. Fixed it for me.
The player, the guitar, the fresh strings, your input level, the massive reverb and delay... pretty much everything would make a difference !
Which is native for Mac M, otherwise NO
404 gojira not found
Neural Amp Modeler-
I think i spend 4 hr a day in Tim henson plugin.
Lipstick?? 😂😂😂😂
we all know the story. sounds great on YT and like shaite in my studio
No nameless?
No granophyre?
I guess this isn’t for people who play metal…
I think the majority of videos on TH-cam for Neural DSP plug-ins are for metal players haha!
Neural digital guitar plug-ins sound like shit and have forever left me with adware purchase notices on my computer.
Their lousy tech-support was unable or unwilling to figure out how to remove those error messages.
