    What a cool thing to see a fellow artist use these tools. In truth these plugins exist as embodiment of my music, tones, mixing methods & what I desire to see and cannot find in any other format or tool to go next level heavy -- I engineer the things I use, it's a lot of work and a lot of fun. Love to see it Brendon. To those reading, yes it's 50% off right now, HNY 😎👍

      @@BrendonKPadjasek yeah and fwiw blown out wall has zero circuit topology from hm-2, it's totally it's own thing, I made it versatile to be able to get those tones but actually go beyond the capabilities, hence blowing out the wall (and a blown out wall of sound ;)

      @OTTOAUDIO Would it be a stretch to maybe see in the future,let's say....maybe... a dedicated bass ampsim from otto audio? Holy shit it would probably create a black hole....so never-ending that idea....lol.

    I first learned about the II II II II from your walkthrough video and it's been the backbone of my guitar tones ever since. Lots of IR's claim "mix ready" but Otto cabs actually deliver, unsung heroes of the plugin

      Yeah man it’s a shame they’re a smaller company because imo more people need to know about the magic of Otto Audio. Thanks for checking it out!
      I haven’t tried many IRs tbh so I don’t know what to compare it to, but I’m 100% satisfied with the results

    So, I've watched a couple of your videos with the 11 11 and finally tried it out last night using your code. My 9-string sounds so heavy it pushed my spine out of my body. 13/10 would recommend.

      Appreciate for the words man! And yeah I organized in a way that would make sense to access but for some IR loaders it's a nightmare, I will do a duplicate folder in future with all of them in it 👍 Great idea for workflow Brendon

      @BrendonKPadjasek  8 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Thanks my man! I definitely understand why you did it as I often will organize my photo and video folders like that. But I figure most people, like myself, may likely use the free IR loaders so a duplicate would be phenomenal in a future update.
      You know it’s a good sign when the only “issue” with the product is that it’s too organized haha

    Dude who produces Bloodbath's tones parallel mixes the buzzsaw tones with tighter tones to get those evil sounds. I love it. It inspired me to parallel mix my octave up super fuzz tone with my bass heavy doom tone to achieve both the girth and sizzle I was looking for.

      @@BrendonKPadjasek I guess I'm too weak to give any advice, but it's true that you have to be careful with it. Your playing style is also very organic and I think it won't work in this type of riffs. There are many mixes that sound very computer-like, especially Thall, and there Fortin does his job. You have a brilliant style, I'm waiting for your own music and videos

      @radekmusic1846 that’s always always going to happen my friend. The important thing to remember, and I think someone mentioned it in a previous comment, is that you actually want to create your own sound. That mix you sent me was great drum wise and I thought the guitars were awesome as well. Just keep going at it and you’ll create your own sound
      That’s why people go to will Putney for his sound, zakk Cervini for his, Buster for his, Kurt Balou etc. they all have their own sound and bands that will gravitate towards that sound will go with that engineer. Hope that helps
