#Orange #OrangeAmps #RockerVSOR15 - เพลง
The nice thing about this vid is that it makes it blatantly clear that it's hard to make any Orange amp sound BAD...
Agreed.
OK the amps sound like Orange, but the playing, dude! That Tiny moving parts into was as clean as the amps. Great skills!

Hola amor
I bought the Rocker 15 Terror a few months ago. Absolutely love it! Great video! I enjoyed the plug in shots.
Toby it’s great to see you man. Excellent as ever.
Proud owner of an OR15, a Dark Terror and a Micro Dark... (Also a Crush 35RT combo)... semi-new to Orange amps, but they are absolutely incredible... 🤘
I've had my OR for 4 years. Makes me smile every time i crank into it
I like my OR15 head unit and my Rocker 15 head unit as they both sound killer but my CR20 combo gets more play it seems .
Which do you like the most? Do you play different music for each one? I'm very intrigued by Orange amps and am thinking of getting one but there are so many choices!
@@AdADglgmutShevanel honestly, i seem to switch back and forth between the Dark Terror and the OR15 the most (and thats out of about 16 different amps i own)... I had already owned about 10 different amps before i discovered how awesome Orange amps are... I bought the Micro Dark and when i hooked it up to a Marshall 4x12, i was blown away... And thats what led me to getting the Dark Terror and the OR15... I fell in love with Orange so much, that my next purchase is gonna be a big boy Rockerverb 100... If you like the Orange voicing/tone, i dont think youd be unhappy with whatever choice you make... But in my opinion, id say get the Dark Terror.
Honest opinion, which of those 4 sounds the best for you?
Holy moly the OR15 sounds incredible, wish thered be combos of it. Also great polaris effect sound :)
would love to hear some more OR15 shootouts! Feel like its such a versatile amp.
Ya got a nice channel here Toby. You deserve more views/subs
Clip 2 made the Rocker 15 sound incredible. Truly incredible. Big time Siamese Dreams vibes.
My ears gravitate towards the Rocker 15 Terror. To me it has a much fuller sound which is aesthetically more pleasing for my hearing preference. OR15 is nice too, though, and serves its purpose as well.
Same man i hear rocker 15 a pleasing tone
Have the rocker 15 combo and it's a phenomenal amp. Clean channel is the star of the show imo...
Both great amps and I guess would both absolutely have a place for a respective style of play. To me the OR15 just seems to have a broader tone.
The OR15 sounds amazing. Probably the best sounding rock amp for it's price point.
$600 for a sound that's practically 3x that! Well worth the money.
Marshall DSL?
@@tgchan It's probably better for metal than the OR15, but I would choose the OR15 every time for rock.
@@nj1255 I’d say it depends on the metal. If you want a more modern mid-scooped prog metal tone, I’d go for the Marshall. But for thick sludgey doom metal, I’d take the Orange all day.
@@tgchan I had many DSLs and now I have OR15. Orange is much better
The fact you played tiny moving parts blew me away.
Still one of the best channels which show cases the Orange Amp’s capability.
OR15 to Rocker 15 Terror (Proud owner) of the latter
Though there are solid state amps like Boss Katana which really is good, but nothing beats a true Tube Amp.
The best part is the Rocker Terror is able to really get different tones with OD pedals at the front. With a EFX loop is really a plus too. At low volume is not shabby either, definitely apartment friendly…neighbours have not complained yet…:3
Nearly jumped on a DSL20 head but was told to try around, that thick Fuzz/Dist from the Orange is what I wanted. Threw a TS-ish pedal at the front and changed the tone.
Now I am upgrading to the BOSS Katana Waza 212 cabinet and see if I am able to get great sound. Still playing and doodling around on this amp and this channel is a great inspiration for diff settings m
Love the Tiny Moving Parts riff.
hands down the OR15
OR15 sounds amazing, you should do a review of the Peavey 6505MH as well
Originally I was all about the OR15… but the Rocker is nice and full! However I would still take both!
The OR15 is the First AMP I ever Had that sounded awesome straight Out the Box.
Everything around 12 o.clock, got an MXR Booster in the front to Push the gain.
Does this work well for switching from a “clean to overdriven” sound just with the booster?
Man they’re a LOT closer than I thought they’d be. If I was blind tested, I would think it’s the same amp with different settings.
I know! Surprisingly similar. I think with a subtle EQ in post you could match them 👍
awesome, can you do a comparison of the orange micro heads and the orange crush combos?
I’m liking that rocker 15 terror more and more than the OR15! It just sounds more forward and bigger that the OR15, can’t deny that!
dam they're really close, I like the fullness of the rocker 15 it seems to have a bit more low mid and bass. but eh or15 is still sick.
I Love my OR15. Its a great little amp.
Dunno why but the OR15 just sounds a bit more open and a bit more lively in the top end than the Rocker 15, EQ seems a bit more effective and less subtle, too. If I were choosing a 15 watt I'd probably go for the OR15.
So to my ears they both sound like each other, but the OR15 is brighter and has more gain come in earlier. I’m really surprised they aren’t more different. Seems like you could for the most part eq them to sound the same. Like if you added a resonance control to the or15 you’d have the rocker.
1:42 in and I already know I prefer the OR15 - thanks... about the 5th time I’ve watched this video in the last 2-3 years. Just keep coming back, lol
Did you buy one?
@@adhaskym.a9536 - I did, but then sold it again, lol. I like Orange but find them ‘one trick ponies’ but “that” they do really, really well. The clean channels are way too dark for my liking and I don’t like the singular tone knob that comes on many. To get a good EQ on both a dirty AND clean channel you have to go all the way up to the TH30... I think that’s the one. Anyway, that’s a lot of watts and a really big head. I’m really partial to Marshall cleans and dirt tones. The Engl Fireball does pretty much everything as well. Killer amp!
@@oldguyjammin9732 Well noted on the OR-15. I have a JCM800 Studio Classic and I am hoping to get another low wattage amp for my jamming session as I rarely do clean with the JCM. I do however just purchased the PPC 212V and the Marshall seems tamed.
@@adhaskym.a9536 - hey that’s so cool cause I just got a JCM800 and after a few days am really starting to like it. The EQ section is a bit different from my DSL but I’m liking the tones. The cleans are clean enough for me and actually rather nice and chimey imo, and the dirt side... it scratches that MESA itch without being irritating after 20 minutes. Something about Mesas ...?? Ear fatigue is the best way to describe it, something ‘grating’ in the midrange and I can never get enough mids out of the tone.
@@oldguyjammin9732 Just sharing, my setup after having it for 6 months is a tuner, wah pedal and MXR 10 band EQ and that's it. In the loop, a Strymon Zelzah and El Capistan (V2). That amp loves simplicity.
In resume, the Orange OR15 is better in sound by just a half cm you have to put it head to head just to notice the diference, its aesthetically better in my opinion BUT the Rocker 15 give's you more playability by switching bedroom/headroom beacuse if you can't make to much noise, and you switch to 7w is still noisy you can handle it with a volume pedal tho.
Its just a matter of preference.
This was a great help for me! I was thinking about a Jim Root Terror or maybe Dark Terror and the this Rocker15 Terror became an option, But now that Rocker15 is not match for the clarity of this OR15! One thing: The OR15 won't fit, i have only room for the size of the Rocker15... Is that case easy to remove?
Hmm not sure how easy it would be to take the OR15 out of the headcase. Might be easiest to go Rocker. If you turn the treble up one notch and the bass down one notch they sound very similar 👍
Ha funny! I always thought the OR15 had more body but that's actually the opposite! I guess I will keep my rocker 15 then =P
0:45 I got the Ichika Nito vibe. Great demo btw.
Its actually medicine by tiny moving parts, so good
For me, I like the warmer cleans of the Terror. Maybe I am just telling myself that though because I just spent the money on one. I'm sure I'll be happy with it............................................
Or15 just looks classier in wooden head shell too!!!
Tiny moving parts riff for the win!
I love that you played Dinosaur Pile-up
How does the rocker 32 combo compare to these?
Man that sounds so rad! Awesome job! Did you have the sm57 on both the G12H30 and V30 for a blend or just one of those 2?
I think it was a 57 on both speakers blended. Sometimes it sounds better with an 80:20 blend towards the V30 rather than 50:50 so i'll use that. Depends on the sound 👍
Right on! Thanks for the info!
Rocker 15 to my ears.
can you do a rocker 15 vs dark terror?
Aye that Masochist clean riff!
hell yeah
Rocker 15 for me, that bottom end is just edging it for me, however they are so close, you could probably EQ them to be more or less identical.
Pretty similar. I prefer the brightness of the OR15.
Like the rocker is congested.
What's that riff at 0:39?
Lol didn't expect to hear tmp here
Please do the fender gtx amps
Eyy heard a Thousand Foot Krutch riff there
I liked the or15 best for high gain and the rocker 15 best for clean and edge of breakup
To me at least, the OR15 has a much more prominent upper end, and sounds kinda like a Marshall, while the Rocker 15 has a more prominent lower end and what seems like a slightly darker but fuller sound. The other thing about the rocker is that it does sound a little congested, but kind of in a good way. Everything sounds kinda closer together and makes a more dense sound, especially when the gain is cranked. Both Amos are great though this one is definitely just a personal preference thing
Great tone the OR15 but single channel right ...is the terror switchable with footswitch ?
The Rocker can change channel with a foot-switch (sold separately) 👍
I feel the OR15 would sit better in a mix and cut through more. Thinking of replacing my Tiny Terror, I miss having a clean channel and FX loop.
OR15 is single channel ,too. That channel is pretty versatile ,but you have to turn gain down on the amo, rather than a channel switch . Or use od pedal
They sound very similar honestly. It kinda just sounds like you moved the mic more towards the center of the speaker for the OR15
I like the brighter OR15 but they’re so similar
This vid makes me want the OR and I love my rocker terror. Rocker terror sounds flat compared to the OR.
In this video I feel like the OR15 has a little more life to it. But it’s funny, I recently played them side by side in a local guitar shop and I actually liked the Rocker better.
busted out some Tiny Moving Parts eh?? nice
Bro can u do the fender champion 100 plzzzzzz
so basically plexi vs rockerverb!
Terror, yes !
I mean the difference is only 50 bucks too which makes it so hard I can't help but feel like I'm missing out on the OR15 if I buy the rocker lol
UPDATE: I went with the rocker instead, the clean channel apparently stays cleaner longer and for me that made a difference. However the OR15 has 4 gain stages instead of 3 so it'll get a tad dirtier. I also think the OR15 looks cooler, but the clean channel was what led me to buy the rocker 15 :)
Was that masochist - polaris in the delay part???
Yeah 🤘
Where’s the brightness and transparency with the rocker? Wonder if curable.
You can cure it by buying the OR15 instead lol
Scoop the mids cut the bass
@@mrcoatsworth429 Yes indeed. That is a killer piece.
Ik it's bout the sound, but I wish the rocker 15 terror had the orange tolex sleeve around it.
I know, me too.
est-ce que vous utilisez un aténuateur de puissance en sortie de tête pour le or15, je ne comprend pas comment vous pouvez sortir un volume raisonable avec autant de gain et de volume
It was loud, although the Orange amps sound great at low volumes too 👍
@@TobysGuitarGearDemos what cab did you use ?
Used a Orange 1x12 with G12H30 for cleans and a Harley Benton 2x12 (V30) for dirty 👍
What they sound like with lead
Like the OR15 better, seemed more fuller and a tad clearer to my ears. Sound is different to each person. Both great amps, can't go wrong with neither one.
I've owned both of these amps at the same time, and the OR15 tone is exponentially better. The R15 is very good in it's own right and has a nice clean channel, but there's no comparison in the room.
OR15 more sizzle, i'd go with that
I hay both, the OR15 might sound brigther but have some hollow laca of thump and los mids in the sound that the lower mids of the rocker kills, sound more metal hi fi fizzy gain of the rockerverb,the rocker is thicker and creamier mids with a vintage gain, mejor differences is 4 gain stages vs OR15 vs 3 gain no the rocker dirty channel and the natural channel no the rocker is a single stage which sound quite clean .Sold both and I got the rocker 32.
Which one is better headroom and volume for gigs situation?
Probably the Rocker as you have the dedicated clean channel. I believe the rocker goes a little louder clean than the OR15 as you have to pull the gain control back to get cleans on the OR15 👍
@@TobysGuitarGearDemos how about the dirty channel in rocker? Does it loud enough. cause i thought about replacing my 6505mh for weekly gigs. I mostly using dirty channel on amp and boosting with SD1
I’d say dirty is LOUD, but then you could have an insanely hard hitting drummer. You will have problems with the cleans breaking up before the dirty channel volume is a issue. However, I don’t gig currently so your mileage may vary 👍
@@TobysGuitarGearDemos ok i see, thank you bro
Well that's scuppered my plans, the OR sounds better, but it's not 2 channel , agghhhhhhh!
Which one has more low end?
Rocker 15. It's pretty slight though, moving the bass up a notch and it's matched 👍
I think the OR15 sounds just a little better, but too bad it only has one channel.
Find a 7 band eq pedal and then you'll be able to make them exactly the same. Maybe even the knobs on them would be enough to do that.
Also it's just normal for OR-15 to has superlittle more headroom since it doesn't have a built in attenuator. Those kinda switches always BUT always lose you headroom.
So, sorry OR-15 but i'm taking the 2 channels option with a headroom/bedroom switch.
Who's gonna tell the reviewer that the EQ doesn't affect the clean channel on the Rocker 15...
He switched it to the dirty channel which is set clean like the OR15.
I thought it does effect the equation for the clean channel ! Or is that my CR20 that the EQ works for the clean channel !? I thought it worked on the Rocker 15 head unit as well, I Guess it's been a while since I used it !?
Hearing tiny moving parts in clean
Which one has more gain?
Rocker has more, but both have loads 👍
@@TobysGuitarGearDemosReally? It looked to me like the OR15 had more gain reserves…
I had the orange OR15H for a few years. I was never happy with it. Way too much gain and clipped too easy.
OR-15 sounds better but I’m stuck with the Terror because features
Nothing wrong with that.
OR15 vs ENGL Rockmaster 20
TINY MOVING PARTS?!?!?!!!
Yes!
OR15 Brighter
Looks like just get them both lol
U could not use the distortion for lead
Rocker 15 hands down not even close. You can hear the throaty, mids/ thin sort of sound coming from the OR15 when the TS was on and it was super pleasant. Plus, two channels is better than one.
I've also owned an OR15 and I currently have a Rockerverb 100mki and a Marshall Origin 50, I really wanna add that rocker 15 terror to my lineup after seeing this comparison.
