Spyros Tsalouchidis I second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth that. The only distortion plugin I've tried was based on the EHX Big Muff and it sounded like a swarm of bees going mad in a metal trash can.
Mercuriall absolutely knocks shit out of the park whenever they make vst's. Tried it and it's super responsive, sounds great and it's very dynamic. Love it.
Donald trump taught me how to play drums..... They sound yuge...... I am very, very impressed. And then he tried to molest me and refused my drum class refund. Now Mueller is trying to pay me off to stay quiet using his whore slush fund.
Wow, just tried the demo for this plugin and it sounds sick and is super straight forward and easy to use. I was trying out Revalver and BIAS FX before this plugin and was not enjoying either of those very much. I don't think I put enough time into them to get a sound I like but this plugin blew me away right from the start. I currently use Amplitube3 but might have to consider switching after trying this plugin.
Mercuriall is by FAR the best Developer for guitar plugins. Mercuriall Reaxis made me go from 70% of tone I was after to 110%. They are just amazing for Metal.
Tonally they're virtually identical. However, I do hear just a bit more depth and space out the real pedal. It's very subtle but it's definitely there. Sounds sick nonetheless, they did a great job.
It is awesome. It sounds way better to me than Helix Native, BIAS FX or other common VSTs. In fact it sounds better than my tube amp haha. Tried the demo today and I have just bought the full version. Mercuriall resoted my faith in VST amps! We need more amp/preamp VSTs of this quality!
AMT has several good products, but does not have a good disclosure. Like AMT LA (R2,P2,E2) and AMT Pangaea similar to Two Notes Torpedo Live. Ahn great job on pluguin :)
My wife was in the middle of watching this same video when I clicked to watch it...and she does not even play music! That's how influential you have been over the years in our home....Has the "New Wave" of digital pre-amps swayed your mind any one way or the other? In other words, are digital pre-amps going to be the mainstream "go-to" amp for the future? Keep up the awesome material!
The first riff sounds very similar to Elektra by Refused! They're Swedish like you, what do you think about them? Also I think AMT makes really good and clever products: I have a V1 and a D2 preamps and I've used them for years to play live and also to record our last albums. Greetings from a depressing Italian band!
Man Ola I been listening to 500 and something heavy songs from all the greatest metal bands on Spotify and then I heard The Preachers of Death by The Haunted I don't know if you did the guitar work on it but the tone and riffs sounded better than all the other groups wow nice man.
I know this doesn't happen so often, but this plug-in sounds lot better when I use it, than what I heard in this vid. It's insane! I bought it faster than I 've ever did after a demo! I made it sound better even than the Fortin amp plug-in. With Lundgren pups! That shouldn't be. But it is!!
I really want to see Mercuriall make a whammy. It's something that hasn't been done very well before, even in other paid amp sims. I think Mercuriall would make the best whammy, whether it's a paid or free plugin.
"F*ck my face in the ass" - Ola Englund, 2018 2:57 I really had to pull myself together not to spit out my coffee laughing while at work. My sense of humor is stupid af, but shit like this makes me happy.
You know what the say about art, don't treat your piece with high esteem, treat it like nothing like your doing something unimportant, if u want to achieve something, it sounds para doxical, but it works, like anything in life, don't work yourself up, don't oversaturate yourself.
One limitation is that you can't use reverb or delay with cabinet IR off. So if u use it with no cab sim into an fx loop with a real cab, you wont have any sound if you enable reverb. Sad.
Marko from The Crown got me onto this plugin and absolutely swore to me it was the best out there... and as you can see here it is SICK. And its cheap as fuck too!!
If anyone can help me after so long... I value very much the opinion of Ola and his "children". I have in a trigger a unit of the SS-11B at € 240 and an SS-20 at € 160 (real, no plug in). What would you do? Which one do I choose? Is it worth the expense? I'll use it for Progressive. I'm interested in each channel, I'll use them all.
пацаны ваще ребята )))))) так то да. я удивился как продукции АМТ что они засунули в жопу многих иностранных производителей, как и Меркури сделали плагины которые поимели всякие там амплитьюбы и гитар риги. да и Биас не шибко фонтан как по мне хотя Павер ампы там ахеренные
Заценил демку плагина. Залип часа на 2. Как по мне,отлично звучит. И цена приятная. До этого юзал BIAS ,но сейчас понимаю,что мне функционала этого плагина хватит за глаза
A question: which Cabinet IR comes cloesr to the AMT SS11 built in cabinet emulation? I ask because I've downloaded the plugin an want to compar it to my trusty AMT SS20. Thanks.
Hey ola im after some advice im really interested in this plugin but at present I have no pc or laptop to run it what spec do I need to run it and what other gear do I need eg speakers thanx in advance
Not to me. I thought the plugin had great highs, but the real pedal had a richness to the lows and the mids, that the plugin just couldn't compete in. The upside of that, tho, is that pedal sounds frikkin awesome!
Seems weird to model a preamp pedal as if it were an amp until you hear how good that sounds, more amp like than heaps of other 'amp sims' especially recent ones that have been demoed including by you....I look forward to more stuff from this engine.
Trying out the new Mercuriall plugin. A lot of fun like always!
Hola Ola, cheers from Virginia
Ola, what is the track on the back?
You are right, they're exactly the same!
The plugin sounds a little bit more dark.
@@MikehimselfYT oh yea, i just realize. But doesn't matter both sounds good
For me they sound nearly the same, just the AMT pedal got more like deepness in the sound. Great demo Ola!
Can't wait mercuriall make boss metalzone plugin
and RAT
I'd like them to make a Boss HM-2 Heavy Metal plugin.
Is it a serious request? =)
Please make plugins of some classic dirt pedals. A couple of classic distortions and fuzzes would be great additions along with your overdrive plugins
Spyros Tsalouchidis I second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth that. The only distortion plugin I've tried was based on the EHX Big Muff and it sounded like a swarm of bees going mad in a metal trash can.
I test it yesterday afternoon. Bought it this morning. Amazing vst i must say!
You are not wrong, it sounds exactly the same! I played it back several times and found no noticeable difference. Great demo as always Ola!
Mercuriall absolutely knocks shit out of the park whenever they make vst's. Tried it and it's super responsive, sounds great and it's very dynamic. Love it.
the first ola video i watched was when matt damon explained to me how to record guitar
Same here Bro! Great musician and actor!
Or Mel Gibson for bass
Donald trump taught me how to play drums..... They sound yuge...... I am very, very impressed. And then he tried to molest me and refused my drum class refund. Now Mueller is trying to pay me off to stay quiet using his whore slush fund.
And Victoria Beckham for making drums! If I remember right
I love AMT. I use a couple of their Legend amps in my fly rig and they sound perfect. Great video Ola
Wow, just tried the demo for this plugin and it sounds sick and is super straight forward and easy to use.

I don't think I put enough time into them to get a sound I like but this plugin blew me away right from the start.

The plug-in is a little darker, but it's so subtle that after studio EQ and processing you won't hear a difference in a mix. Great review!
Mercuriall is by FAR the best Developer for guitar plugins. Mercuriall Reaxis made me go from 70% of tone I was after to 110%. They are just amazing for Metal.
Nice review, Great Job AMT guys and MERCURIALL's team as well!

Your comparison approach makes perfect sense to me, I have an AMT SS-20 and I plug it to my Scarlett 2i2 then into an IR loader for home recording.
AMT man, this guys are something else. They started in 2001, wish the best for them.
Amt and mercuriall are both russian companies filled with insane engineers
It is awesome. It sounds way better to me than Helix Native, BIAS FX or other common VSTs. In fact it sounds better than my tube amp haha. Tried the demo today and I have just bought the full version. Mercuriall resoted my faith in VST amps! We need more amp/preamp VSTs of this quality!

Some real slick riffs coming out today bro...its one of them magic days
AMT makes some good shit
That's an understatement my friend.
I own an ss-11A and run it straight into a poweramp and 4x12. Best guitar tone I've ever had. The AMT preamps are amazing.
Just got my Stonehead 50.
Buy one. You won't regret it. I A/Bed it on an ENGL 4x12 vs. a 5150 II and liked it better.
I have the real pedal. And it’s awesome.
I liked the Mecuriall Mesa Triaxis plug in, this is really cool too. It is amazing what can be done now.
The first riff sounds very similar to Elektra by Refused! They're Swedish like you, what do you think about them?
Also I think AMT makes really good and clever products: I have a V1 and a D2 preamps and I've used them for years to play live and also to record our last albums. Greetings from a depressing Italian band!
Man Ola I been listening to 500 and something heavy songs from all the greatest metal bands on Spotify and then I heard The Preachers of Death by The Haunted I don't know if you did the guitar work on it but the tone and riffs sounded better than all the other groups wow nice man.
Happy birthday Ola 😊
I loved that crazy industrial equipment look of the stone head.
When you play clean, I can somehow feel your sensitiv side :D
Duuuuude that really has a killer sound!
The amt pedal had more bite
Clean mode
RIP mode
Lead mode.
Got it.
FANX OLA
I know this doesn't happen so often, but this plug-in sounds lot better when I use it, than what I heard in this vid. It's insane! I bought it faster than I 've ever did after a demo!
I made it sound better even than the Fortin amp plug-in. With Lundgren pups!
That shouldn't be. But it is!!
02:57 this is exactly the synthesis of my musical life.
I really want to see Mercuriall make a whammy. It's something that hasn't been done very well before, even in other paid amp sims. I think Mercuriall would make the best whammy, whether it's a paid or free plugin.
Everything with "SS" in name is good!
Thanks for the comparison video... nice playing too. Was curous what DAW software you are using? thx!!!
Where did you get that DT Metro pt1 reverb ir? For everyone else (and Ola too), whats the difference between reverb ir's and cab ir's?
Ola the tone with the IR was gnarly! Which IR was it? GRACE US WITH KNOWLEDGE!
I still want the AMT StoneHead
"F*ck my face in the ass"
- Ola Englund, 2018
2:57 I really had to pull myself together not to spit out my coffee laughing while at work. My sense of humor is stupid af, but shit like this makes me happy.
Its exactly the same!!! Awesome plugin... Mercuriall pulled it off really well!!!
For a few seconds, I thought you were covering, Siagon Kick's "Love Is On The Way"!
Haha. I just thought the same thing.
+1 for the really old school Haunted riffs!
Hopefully Mercuriall makes a plug in of that revv pedal. That'd be sweet.
Ola, du är så härligt sjuk i huvudet (that's a good thing, by the way), love it!
You know what the say about art, don't treat your piece with high esteem, treat it like nothing like your doing something unimportant, if u want to achieve something, it sounds para doxical, but it works, like anything in life, don't work yourself up, don't oversaturate yourself.
Awesome as always Ola. You get to try out a lot of really cool gear mate!
:)
Ola is a fucking treasure 👊🏼
Damn thats a beast of a pedal!
Was much happier with the Misha sim and the prs sim. Maybe that would be bad ass with an amp sim?
Grabbed the free pedal plugins off Mercuriall's site - thanks for the tip.
One limitation is that you can't use reverb or delay with cabinet IR off. So if u use it with no cab sim into an fx loop with a real cab, you wont have any sound if you enable reverb. Sad.
Greetings from Russia! I'm quite surprised that AMT is known outside our hardbass land :D That's nice to hear.
Their stuff is so awesome. Just got myself a Stonehead 50 thanks to the summer sales and it's amazeballs.
Marko from The Crown got me onto this plugin and absolutely swore to me it was the best out there... and as you can see here it is SICK. And its cheap as fuck too!!
hey Ola, always fun watching your vids...informative with a dash of humor :) Does this unit come with any "Ola" presets? thanks from Canada
If anyone can help me after so long... I value very much the opinion of Ola and his "children".
I have in a trigger a unit of the SS-11B at € 240 and an SS-20 at € 160 (real, no plug in).
What would you do? Which one do I choose? Is it worth the expense?
I'll use it for Progressive. I'm interested in each channel, I'll use them all.
ss-11b
sounds pretty damn good for a vst
hardware sounds.. deeper? more 3D. but honestly, only in an A/B comparison. in a mix no would be able to tell. great plugin.
Maybe hot rodded pedals, like Metal Zone with tubes in it.
Plugin? Does it need a main software? Really interested here..
Where is the video of him testing the authentic AMT 11b? I cannot find it.
You know a plug in is good when it sounds amazing though your craptastic galaxy s7 speaker.
Hi
What happened to the mercuriall page, why doesn't it work?
Sarcastic Ola is best Ola.
Also have you heard Wolfheart?, they’re pretty sick 😊
Hard to tell, was the plugin clipping a little in the head to head comp?
Is it just the pedal plug in or are you using an amp plug in with it as well
What impulse are you using at 8:38 in the comparison with the pedal?
Damn jesus, you just discovered the best pedal vst
Holy fuck the sound was identical :D :o
First sound sounds like Annihilator ! 🤘
Flater sound on the plugin, but that should be better if you wanna eq?! :D sustain worse on plugin?
Ola! You must to try the TC Electronic Eyemaster pedal! Thats the new Boss HM-2 :)
Umm good rock pedal or plugin. I really don't think is the greatest metal setup. But its very clean sounding .
Good it have IR inside
The plugin isn't as bright as the pedal is. But it took some serious listening to notice that subtle difference
Охуено, пацаны с Меркурия красавчики вообще)
пацаны ваще ребята )))))) так то да. я удивился как продукции АМТ что они засунули в жопу многих иностранных производителей, как и Меркури сделали плагины которые поимели всякие там амплитьюбы и гитар риги. да и Биас не шибко фонтан как по мне хотя Павер ампы там ахеренные
Заценил демку плагина. Залип часа на 2. Как по мне,отлично звучит. И цена приятная. До этого юзал BIAS ,но сейчас понимаю,что мне функционала этого плагина хватит за глаза
Ага)) Я лично знаю одного из создателей)
Даже видела как он работает над 3д моделью)
Sick guitar, Ola.
This sound great!
Which mercuriall plugin would you recommend for a low tuning like Drop G? I want to achieve a “djenty” tone.
Hey Ola, will there ever be solar guitars with true temperament frets ?
A question: which Cabinet IR comes cloesr to the AMT SS11 built in cabinet emulation? I ask because I've downloaded the plugin an want to compar it to my trusty AMT SS20. Thanks.
Great job!!!
Watching you watching me watching you playing my next guitar.
Can't wait till they'll make Friedman BE100 with that technology.
We'd love to! =)
I'd buy that in a heartbeat
There's already a plugin for the UAD platform, officially licensed. The cab section is so-so, but the amp model is spot on.
B K i don't have UAD platform and i ain't gonna buy it. I'm using VST2 format and always will. ))
Gday Ola how ya garn?! Do you think Randall would ever release a Satan Preamp Pedal? Would be amazing with my Powerstage 170! Cheers ya mad rooter 🤘
Sounded almost exactly the same.... The pedal sounded slightly more organic and less muddy but that's only if u listen extremely closely....
Beautiful guitar, damn! Nice pedal too
Hi Ola, can you please test the the drop pedal from Digitech? Thx Jan
You said your interface is the Apogee Ensemble, but the description says it's the UAD Apollo 8...what is TRUTH?!?
Hey what's up, i have an issue, the web site doesn't work. It doesn't open at all. Can you please tell me what's wrong? Thnx.
AMT is the SHIT !! My E-1, B-1, P-1's kick ass! More dense than Mooers preamps too! Just a smidge. LOL! Love Mooer too tho!
Hey ola im after some advice im really interested in this plugin but at present I have no pc or laptop to run it what spec do I need to run it and what other gear do I need eg speakers thanx in advance
Okay, how long before laptops replace amp heads on touring rigs??
Not to me. I thought the plugin had great highs, but the real pedal had a richness to the lows and the mids, that the plugin just couldn't compete in. The upside of that, tho, is that pedal sounds frikkin awesome!
Isn't there a little bit less sustain in the plugin version ?
Seems weird to model a preamp pedal as if it were an amp until you hear how good that sounds, more amp like than heaps of other 'amp sims' especially recent ones that have been demoed including by you....I look forward to more stuff from this engine.
I hear differences in the first and second samples. but i don't think one is better than the other. but in the last one it sounds the same
That was sick!
Was that Panic Attack by DT at the start?
sounds pretty much the same, pretty impressive.
............but...oMg....that was sensational-i loved it-didnt understand-but loved it dearly-
It sounds almost exactly the same as the real pedal and I'm sure you could tweak the plugin slightly to produce the same sounds
