  • In this video we listen to the Neural DSP Architype Nolly plugin and the ENGL Fireball 100 with the Two Notes Torpedo Captor X. Please make a comment and share which you like better? I hope you dig these riffs and thank you for watching!

    I thought both of these sounded excellent, but the tone WAAY changed the mood of each. The Nolly plug-in gave your composition this very Djentee expression, while the ENGL gave the piece a slightly militant metal type of feel. Well done!

      Oh I dig the way you describe the difference between the two!!! Very inspiring @krzystovmrozla2866. Thank you so much for the kind words!

    Awesome video. I vote for the plugin. I double vote the riff.

    Hey Eric, cool stuff! The Fireball seems to have a little more low mid-tone to it (not out of character for this amp of course), whereas the Nolly seems more refined based on your settings. However, in the context of your mix, they both sound very good, as this is where most will not know the difference. For live I would prefer the Fireball.

      Thank you so much @Shred_Rocket! It's tough, I feel the same way as you. In recording the rest of this song I struggled with which set up to use. After back to back comparisons I went with the plugin because it sat better with the other instruments. I can't wait to post the rest of this song as the plugins delays on the solos are amazing! Coming soon

    Both are fantastic but, I can tell you this, The amp just sounds more punch you in your face to me! Also I used my Fireball 100 and Twonotes Captor X with these exact settings cabs mic ect that you posted and its spot on so its awesome to see a real comparison! Great Video my Friend!

    Use both. They probably sound great together.

    Plug-ins are beyond excellent these days. That said, there’s a raw feel to the actual amp that still wins in its own way. A plug-in might be mid ready, but a good amp recorded with basic competency and little else done in terms of processing will still cut while also have a raw aggression and fuller low end in the mix.
    In the ends, it’s about personal preference, really.

    Amp definitely sounded more organic and 'alive'.. It's strange that the amp lead lick was lower in the mix than the archetype lead.. Looks like your mistake there.

    You'd get a better comparison by using the same IR loader and IR.

      Ah great idea! Though, my thoughts were for people to share which they liked better as is. Thanks for sharing @weasle76!

    Based on this video, the Neural DSP ENGL Fireball 100 sounds better overall. While the real amp sounds a bit distant. Could be different/better if u used a cab and a few high end mics (old school way).

    The plugin sounded better to me.

      Thank you @catalyzed8457, I am with ya!

    Both sounded good but nothing beats the flexibility of a plugin I guess! just my 2 cents!

    Wait the plug in is an Engl?

    • @X9Eric
      @X9Eric  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ENGL is the real amp,

    the real amp sounds better to my ears

    The actual amp is still better, technology has gotten close but still not quite there yet, I'd say another 3-5 years and it can be just as good if not surpass.

    Real amp sounded better but the difference is not worth the price tag.

    Two notes Captor sounds kinda shitty in this setting, imho

      Forever learning, that's what makes making music so fun IMHO!
