8 billion people in this world and only 1 Peter Diezel. We love you! Keep safe and stay strong. Frohes neues Jahr to everyone over at Diezel Amplification. 🔥🤘
I have my VHX since March 2021. After years playing with a Kemper I wanted to have a real tube amp without losing all the benefits of the modern tech. The VHX is the answer to that need. The flexibility is amazing and for me it transcends Diezel fans and makes this amp the best amp for any use. If you think that you have all the voices, the shapes, the effects but not only the regular EQ section of the amp but also digital effects of EQ, compression, etc... There's almost nothing you can't do with this amp. And because you have all the memory presets ,you can recall any of the sounds you have designed at any moment with just a click on your midi control pedalboard. And it's easy to use, for those that hate deep menus and tweaking. Peter Diezel was a genius creating the sound circuits of the amps and Leo Polito is a genius that put all this together in one amp in a seamless way.
i’ve heard about kempers crashing i suppose these could too since most of the controls are computerized but at least the tone is real i can actually tell that the whitechapel albums with kemper sound fake as fuck i’ve gotten better tones from stock plugins
What amazing inovation. It's great to see Diezel pioneering things in the industry. Well done entire Diezel family. Love the pasion and heart put into this.
The amplifier is comprised by Peter Diezel and tweaked/enhanced further by Leo. But to hear Peter Stapfer do John Sykes and EVH without skipping a beat is a very powerful statement as who is behind this brand. Real musicians. Just amazing.
I have a 96 Blueface which the master built for me as a present to myself on my 30th birthday. Still have it living in my studio as my constant go to, despite having quite an array of amps….live I use a Diezel Paul which I bought a year ago which is beautiful as it recreates my studio sound.Our Dumble is Diezel
Dang it, Peter S. starts with Extreme, I'm instant in love. 💜 This amp is totally unbelievable, definitly a peacemaker, just received mine, the journey beginns.. Very smart and intuitive interface. Sounds are awesome as always.. whats not to love about Diezel.
Yes! This is perfect! The fact you have a dsp that converts back to analog is incredible! A while back someone on TH-cam asked what's next for amps. This is almost what I described only I said I could see big Amp manufacturers partnering with either Nerual Dsp or Line 6 for the on screen digital fx part. Didn't even think about being able to convert it back to analog that's so awesome.
I love my D-Moll! I am starting to look into buying another Diezel...I own lots of amps...but Diezel is my favorite by FAR. This Vid really helps! Sounds awesome!
I love the new setup, guys! I can’t tell you how many times I watched the Peters mess with the Paul on this channel before I scored mine; it might be my favorite amp I’ve ever played. Of course the VHX sounds amazing.
Peter D and Peter S are pioneers of the industry. Im so grateful for their contributions over the years and ability to deliver their dream without compromise. Additional appreciate for filming in English tho totally unnecessary!
Vielen Dank für die Vorstellung des VHX - lange darauf gewartet! Schade, daß es nicht auf Deutsch ist, man merkt halt schon, das der Wortwitz und Interaktion der zwei Peters nicht so wie gewohnt ist - aber verständlich bei dem dritten Kollegen, der kein Deutsch kann. Frohe Weihnachten!
AWESOME!!! But does it offer a Herbert MK3 tone stack? Because I want a Herbert MK3 so bad, but the fact this includes all the FX and tuner, and the VH sound... If it does the Herbert MK3 perfect, as well... I might have found my next amp... If it does have that setting, can you please do a video showing how heavy it gets and how it sounds in Herbert mode in drop tunings (Drop-C, Drop-A, etc...)? 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
It does the Herbert mk3. I have both the VHX and a mk3 and I can replicate the mk3 easily. Classic-1 on the VHX is the Herbert. Actually, you can go beyond the Herbert with the VHX. There are settings on there not found on other Diezel amps.
@@TroyPosey No idea man. I just know it can because I play mine all the time. I am not really a "broots chugg life" player anymore, but I tell you that if you set it to "Modern-0" which is the tightest + most modern/aggressive setting and either engage the midcut or onboard eq, it gets absurd. And stays together really well if tuned below C.
I’ve spent the last 2 days surfing the whole internet about the VHX and the more I learn about it, the more I want it. I know now that I will get one for sure. I just saw that Thomann have EL34 version, and I wonder if I could get the famous VH4 Ch3 tone with the VHX and EL34?
Hey, I have my VH4 with EL34 BSTR’s, and I have to say I prefer them way more over the KT77’s. I am very sure the VHX at Thomann will give you what you want.
This is super interesting to me, even though I have no money to buy one any time soon unless I sell my Hagen and Herbert (and I’m totally happy with them for now)! Out of interest, does the whole signal go through AD and DA for FX all the time, only when effects are on, or do they go in parallel if something like reverb or delay is on?
if there's no line mixer integrated in the amp, I have hard time to believe the tube tone is not altered. The Herbert mkIII is quite interesting though.
One suggestion, to have one “performance” page, where we don’t see the graphic specter analyzer, FX, etc… but instead we have a big number and the name of the preset… so we can easily read it far from the amp while on stage.
Gibt es zufällig die Tabs für Amazing Grace irgendwo? Das war richtig sweet! Ansonsten liebe ich ja meinen D-Moll. Aber mit Effekten eingebaut hat das auf jeden Fall seinen Reiz! Interessantes Konzept!
This video is decent but I wish there were more good demos of this amp on TH-cam with a variety of players and styles (most of the videos other than this one are with below average players or low recording quality). Perhaps Diezel could lend one out to some TH-camrs in Europe? I am sure a lot of people sick of modellers want to bite the bullet but there just isn’t enough out there for those interested in purchasing internationally
Ich vermute, jetzt wo Marshall an eine Zubehör-Firma verkauft wurde, wird das Interesse an Diezel steigen. Ich besaß früher einen Herbert, aber der war ganz schön schwer, ca. 30kg. Daher würde ich als nächstes einen kleinen Digitalamp entwickeln; ca. 30 Watt. Ich habe schon den passenden Namen: Soundmonster I suspect now that Marshall has been sold to an accessories company, interest in Diezel will increase. I used to own a Herbert, but it was quite heavy, about 30kg. So my next step would be to develop a small digital amp; about 30 watts. I already have the appropriate name: Soundmonster
@@mars6433 you wouldn't need to move it because it's already stored so you just need to press a button on your midi controller an it will load everything with no cuts. If you need it while actually playing the guitar pot is what is usually used.
@@wabisabi7399 Even if it would that would be instantaneous (30ms), while phisically turning the knob has an additional fade in and fade out to make it nicer since it's likely you would turn it multiple times in a very short period (like in the video)
Please make a VHX 50, or please make a VHXS (to have 2x50w) and then have the option to have one 50w cab for the Dry sound, and have another 50w cab for the Wet effects for a Dry/Wet configuration with one amp and one stereo 2x12" Cab
Another solution, to have in the global settings an option to turn two power tube off, so it would force to reduce the wattage to 45-50w without removing any tube, and it could set back to 100w, so we can adjust the wattage according to the usage, venue size, etc…
Diezel is high quality all the way. I had an Einstein years ago, one of the best amps I've ever had, but hated the tone. I've always been into the Marshall tone. I always wondered why Diezel never made a Marshall type of amp.
@Diezel Vh4 You need your ears checked, bud. Or you've never heard a Plexi. I played all Diezels except the latter ones like the Dmoll and they sound nothing like a Marshall. Diezels are too compressed to sound like a Marshall. To me it's an amp for rich 15 year olds so they can do their drop D bubble gum music all day.
And to me fender sounds like he'll. To me Marshall plexis sound like weak, bumpy, smooth, mid oriented, no bass, tinny, and like 1968 music. I like Clapton, I like Van Halen and Jeff Beck. Bit to me, there is a whole world beyond 1980s hard rock. This amp is for metal, and extreme metal. And also does versions of Clapton, Beck Van Halen, Extreme , Marshall 1959 super lead. Even Van Halen advanced and improved his tone since 1978. He did 5150s. He did the Stealth with 3 channels with fender. He made better sounding guitars later after the original Frankenstrat. He said even the $25,000 replicas sounded better. He made guitars with 3 guitar companies after 1978. This Diezel is a high performance state of the art high gain amp. It does tons of things a Two Rock and Fender and Marshall can't do.i like those 3camos two. Bit I like currentvhighbgain amps, too. I have a Herbert M2 amp and I love it. And even if I get the new VHX I'm going to keep the herbert. Because it's great, too, for my tastes What are your preferred amos, and tastes in amps? Something smoother?
I like Petrucci , and music man guitars, too, and the Mesa Mark amps too. What do you think of petruccis signature jp2c amp? Take The Time is my favorite Dream Theater song.
@@politoleo Do you know if there will be a possibility to split signal and send the full analog dry signal to the power amp and send the digital wet signal to a loop out to another speaker? Ideally I would love a stereo VHX (like the VH4S they did in the past), a VHXS that would have 2x 50w power amp and could have either stereo signal or maybe even dry/wet signal... that would be PERFECT!
@@Spidouz you can place both of the 2 loop anywhere you like, before or after any FX and in any order. Then at the same time you already have the DRY that goes to the analog Poweramp and the IR can sim (that can be bypassed as well) one that goes out from XLR out and that can be used with the PA system or to record. Not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for but may already work out of the box. Also the loop can work as send only too, so you may use them to split the signal to 2, dry to one Poweramp and wet to the embedded one.
@@politoleo awesome features. Now I’m just hoping to get a 50w version, or a stereo version with 2x 50w like they did with the VH4S… either way would work for me. Do you know if we can’t just unplug 2 KT77 to drop the power from 100w to 45-50w? I really don’t want to blow my 60w cab… and also don’t need 100w!
Never understood why these badass amps always get blues rock style players to demo them. Those tones belong with drop tunes and metal. Edit: I watched halfway into the video I was pleasantly surprised for about half a second.
This amps are not just Metal Amps... they amps that can do so much more than just Metal. And they proved it in this video doing all kind of music genre, to show this amp can be used by everyone, including blues and rock players.
Tone is subjective; one could think the Spider sounded like crap in comparison to the VH4 because tones and opinions are subjective… while component quality, quality of build, etc.. are totally objective and no one in his/her right mind would think Diezel is bad quality.
@@Spidouz In all fairness he probably didn't know how to eq. I guess tone is technically subjective, but most people seem to agree on what sounds good.
It depends. If you try to replicate a tone from a known song, then yes we can all agree if it does match or not. But if it’s for your own song, then you will surprised of different opinion about any given tone. I worked in pro studio and we had all the nice gear you can imagine, so I thought it would be easy to dial the “right” tone, and then I discovered that each guitarist has different taste, different hearing… some will like more bright than others (maybe older ears that don’t hear highs that well). Also compression could be a thing really hard to hear for some people; and finally it will depends on the kind of music you’re listen to. Someone that listen to blues all the time will have hard time to really hear all nuances in high-gain tones. And someone that listen to metal all the time might have hard time to hear all nuances in clean or edge of break up tones. We’re all human and we can’t know it all… and gear head (like most of us) often fall in the rabid hole to focus on the gear instead of the musicians. All the best gear in the planet won’t help if the musicians are bad. Good musicians will improve the overall tone without even tweaking gear to make it sound better. When a band is locked in tempo and play great, it will sound great regardless the type of gear. Long story short: it depends… so just use the gear you like ;)
@@Spidouz I agree that some musicians are so good that tone doesn't really matter that much. I guess good tone is subjective, but it does seem like most people agree on what sounds good or bad when they hear a tone. At the gig where my friend had a vh4 and the other guitarist had a line 6 spider, my musician friends who were with me all agreed that the line 6 was sounding much better than the 4k dollar vh4. I'm sure he just didn't dial it in well. It sounded like bass and gain were at 10 and the mid and treble were almost non existent

Thank you for doing this video!! I love my VHX, and it's so great to hear you guys explain it so nicely! Keep up the excellent work!!
Sounds like my end game dream amp that has it all. Will save up for one! If it can do Herbert tones and VH4 tones a no brainer.
The only Amp, I'll ever need! Milestone!
an absolutely brilliant diezel
This is a new bench mark in amp technology
wish we had more of your amps in Brazil...of course there are great handmades here, but your work is astonishing

Please share these presets with us VHX owners!
if there's no line mixer integrated in the amp, I have hard time to believe the tube tone is not altered. The Herbert mkIII is quite interesting though.

I guess good tone is subjective, but it does seem like most people agree on what sounds good or bad when they hear a tone. At the gig where my friend had a vh4 and the other guitarist had a line 6 spider, my musician friends who were with me all agreed that the line 6 was sounding much better than the 4k dollar vh4. I'm sure he just didn't dial it in well. It sounded like bass and gain were at 10 and the mid and treble were almost non existent
This is bs
I can't believe it's not Kirk Hammett
