Hadn’t played guitar since I was teen in the late 90s. Bought a guitar during this whole pandemic and I’m kinda lost as to how much things have moved on. This helps a lot.
@@shanemcconnell1736 The sound guy can easily turn down the gain on the board and counteract anything that a guitar player does with his amp sim. A Marshall stack blowing everything off the stage? Not so much.
@@Riffman42 80s I played in big bands with roadies and light man and sound man always at least a four-man crew, lots of monitors, now I plan bands with no sound man so nobody’s adjusting anything but me on stage and I use a 15 and a 20 amp together, it’s loud, but it’s not that loud, it doesn’t push air, besides, even if we had a sound man, I would never completely trust anybody with all my sound in the room, but that’s just me, I know it was just me because I became a musician, but have to show for me when I was a kid was staring at the gear, when I see those gigs were all the gear is hidden and there’s nothing on stage. I’m waiting for Frank Sinatra to walk out.
It’s interesting that so many people are so opinionated against using modelers and a straight recording setup. I for one embrace all the new tech available. As a young player with a low budget, it sucked having to scrimp and save to buy a half decent amp setup and be limited to whatever tone you could get from that and your collection of pedals. Then lugging all that gear to practice or gigs. And if you ever wanted to record it required a whole other subset of gear that was also very costly for the average consumer back then. In the amp days, your budget decided a lot in your progress as a musician. With all the free tools, learning and equipment out today people can learn and develop their sound without being restricted by whether they could afford a huge collection of gear or not.
Paul Landers of Rammstein played two of the largest venues in the world (Olympic Stadiums of Berlin and Moscow) last summer with just his signature Sansamp fly rig going straight into the board. Interestingly according to Tech21 his PL1 model is really popular with country players for its crisp clean sounds.
Right on! These days you don't necessarily need full rig anymore to sound massive i noticed out of experience. All depends on taste, pref and budget, right?
I went into a recording studio last December, and ran one lead into my Mesa Boogie, and another lead into a Line 6 pod, which then ran two leads out of that, so it was like recording three guitars at once! It sounded amazing!
I use a Mooer Preamp Live with a Line 6 HX FX into a FRFR Speaker (Harley Benton 1x12). The sounds are awesome, I can get all the classic super expensive, Marshall Plexi chewy sounds, plus I can really sculpture a sound and know that what I get out of the headphones is what comes out of the speaker. The Harley Benton speaker even has it's own inbuilt IRs so I don't need the Mooer Preamp, and can just use the HXFX straight in. I used this rig yesterday in a gig and was super pleased. With the Mooer Preanp Live , it is basically a little Kemper so I can even tone capture and download preamps. Everyone should have a digital rig. Modern technology is great. It isn't 2010 anymore, so embrace it, though to be fair, I was quite happy with the Beringher VAMP2 for ages and before then too and got some killer tones out of this rig, longbefore digital modelling was popular. The Vamp2 even now sounds pretty decent through the FRFR speaker. What I learned over the years is it doesn't take much to get a good sound.
Got back from Nashville just as covid was hitting. Every every guitarist was playing a tele and was amazed how many kempers I saw. The studio band at the opry had 2 of them.
I used to have a Sunn Concert Lead 200 watts with a 6x12 cab. Loved it. I was in Jr High. My ma could hear me 2 blocks away at the bus stop. And I was in the basement.
I ran a pedalboard with a crate power block 150 watt solid state (very small) head, a vox stomplab g2, wireless receiver and pedal power. Then ran to my orange 2x12, marshall 4x12, or if it was a nice venue straight into the pa. Did a lot of regional and national runs with that rig and I'm glad this topic is being brought up. Turned a lotta heads with that setup. Nothing special but great budget tone that lasted years and made tight backlines and fast change overs much easier. Also YOUR DRUMMER DOESN'T WANNA HELP YOU CARRY BOTH OF YOUR 4X12s.
This is exactly what I needed. I played in high school pretty well and even taveled playing shows but life happened and I had to work and 15 years later I’m wanting to pick guitar back up and nothing is the same haha. I have no idea what musicians are doing these days. I was about to buy a half stack and head just to dabble hahaha.
Telecaster, lead, Vox AC30 = tonal bliss and a bad back but its worth it. I'm sure Dagan was making videos at home recently during lock down - with his Marshall stack in the background..... 😂
I've ran my guitar through Ableton for the last 1-2 years before getting and amp and it's been awesome, can get a lot of awesome sounds out of it, but i just picked up a Laney cub 10 and i am so stoked! But now i'm constantly looking at buying pedals which i knew was going to happen...
I've been using the Strymon Big Sky HW with speaker simulate and then post processing as needed with various amp sims in my DAW, seems to work well most of the time - but sometimes only an amp has the secret sauce (at least for now). REALLY looking forward to Strymon coming out with a more sophisticated Amp sim than the Iridium, maybe with larger Big Sky enclosure - the Iridium has many good settings but I do think there is still room for realism improvement.
I'd rather use a low wattage tube head with a 212 cabinet. Then put a microphone in front of it 😁 But I did have an amp blow out after 3 songs on a 12 song set at a huge outdoor festival. I ended up grabbing my digitech rp pedal, turned on the amp and cab simulators, plugged it into the p.a. and finished the gig. It actually sounded pretty good out of their massive system! That pedal saved the show that day
I have had a Tech 21 Fly Rig 5 for awhile now. Nice piece of kit and it's analog. I pair it with a Tech 21 Power Engine 60 for practice, but I can go direct to board with it...or use the PE as a monitor along with direct. I just recently got a Mooer 005 micro amp pedal along with their Baby Bomb 30 micro power amp. I run the 005 into the PE60, but the Baby Bomb allows me to go into an old-school cabinet if I want. That 005 pedal sounds amazing. That said...you still need effects pedals, connector cables, power supplies, and that PE60 is heavy and I don't want to carry it anymore LOL. So I'm looking to get at the very least a Headrush FRFR-108, but I want to get the new Line 6 POD Go for the ultimate in versatility and portability.
I agree except you need to have a speaker cab because the cab sim out sounds like garbage, and you need to dig the orange sound. I'm torn between getting something like this from orange (Tiny Terror, OR15 etc) and getting the Helix/Kemper so I don't need to carry my Rockerverb MKiii 100 to the small gigs. :)
I think im confused about terms: if you are using a "power amp pedal" isn't it creating a powered signal that should go to a passive cab, and never a sound board or snake?
I was thinking the same thing. If you're using a power amp pedal you might as well just use an amp. I would think it would add more unwanted sound and would in turn you'd have to get a noise gate on there as well to counter act the power amp pedal.
Just but a Hughes and kettner grand meister 40! Weights 15 pounds use amp or no cab and red box di to house. And bluguitar AMP X is coming out in a few months that is like a 100 watt floor amp like a tube helix
So I have a valeton tar20 that I use on my pedalboard and I typically just run a speaker cable to the cab. What I'm wondering is if, to keep from running another cable, I could use a wireless system or a Bluetooth transmitter from my line out to the mixing board.
Would it be possible to run a coulor box pre amp into the main input of any amp or would I have to run it into the power amp section on the amp itself? I kinda want it to work in the front so I can have two eqs
Can I plug my modeller into say, a monitor/wedge type speaker? Will it sound good/horrible? Usually I plug my preamp/od/modeller multi fx into a Nux Solid Studio to fatten it up & get it to sound full. I then plug it into desktop speakers. It sounds good in the room but it's can't get any louder. I need to plug it into somehing that'll be loud enough. Any suggestions?
If you have a cab sim, any flat response speaker will be fine. The only issue is if you don't have a cab sim to cut all the unpleasant high highs and low lows.
I've not used an amp for years. I use lots of effects and never found an amp that didn't colour the sound with it's own character. Straight into the desk. Wallop.
I'm using an irig stomp I/O pedal, I've had it 2 years and cannot get rid of the horrible hissing sound on both amplitube and Bias Fx. Have you got any info on how I can sort this issue. The pedal has a L and R output and earphones. I've been using my peavey vyper 75 in rather of the channels should I get some small monitors for my desk Maybe? I've tried even using powered Logitech 10 watt speakers. I'm stumped and about to sell the damn thing. Any help would be awesome at this point.

This was great! I am getting back to guitar and want to go straight from pedalboard to mixer/PA. I do not need a power amp, since I do not want to go to a speaker cabinet. Is there one or two pedals which would be good for this? Thanks!
If my preamp pedals have cab sim, can I run them into a power amp and still have the sim work? The power amp wont mess it up? I have the Joyo sound pedals, and just want to run them into a power amp, into a PA/keys amp. Will that work ok?
What would be the best to swap between playing guitar through a gt 1000 and doing vocals through? Cab or PA? What would be some good recommendations? Only one I've been told so far is the Line 6 212. Is there anything better than that?
i got the two notes le clean , It is labeled as preamp but it acts as a power amp by your definition? Can i go to a cab sim next or do i need a power amp pedal too?
my question is pertaining to a "Live Pa Direct" situation... Why would you need a "Power amp" if you were running straight to FOH? you'd be sending them a powered signal and you could blow up their board... I think the "Lingo" for this digital revolution is causing some communication issues. I'm trying to figure out what I need to use my pedal board with out an amp, live, plugged direct into pa without an amp on stage... what tools would I need to add to my board to make it happen?
Preamp pedal would go into a power amp pedal if you were going into a passive speaker cabinet on stage. If you are going DI into the PA board, you could skip the power amp pedal.
I’m no expert, but that signal chain doesn’t make sense. Shouldn’t it be pre amp into a cab simulator (then into front of house) or pre amp into a power amp into an actually speaker cab?
Nothing nicer than a cranked tube amp but between the weight, reliability, volume and so on its just way more convenient to carry a modeller in my gigbag or just use an amp like a boss katana if you need the air moving behind you
it's so personal, completely agree for studio things being able to make micing choices rather than presets will always be the one, but getting to and from gigs on the tube in London, my helix stomp has been an incredible stand in. Didn't get as many compliments from sounds people when I was hauling my giant tweed amp around London! :)
All completely unnecessary. I've been playing my guitar through a Zoom G1 direct to PA through a standard guitar lead for years. No problem and sounds great. If PA doesn't take a jack, you just go through a DI box to convert to XLR, a cheap passive DI will do. I can and have bought and sold anything I want but I cannot find anything that sounds as good as the G1. Crazy I know. They're like a tenner on ebay! Remember it's in the ears not the gears
The problem is the cost of this stuff, is almost more than the real thing. So weekly giging, I could see, because that becomes a Pia carrying all the amps, and cabs.
It's a shame you're such an asshole! I own a professional recording studio with a large tracking room, a locker of premium mics and an assortment of quality presentations and outboard gear. When these plugins and modelers start delivering the same results I'll start using them. As for actual professional musicians! They have learned to settle for convenience.
Hadn’t played guitar since I was teen in the late 90s. Bought a guitar during this whole pandemic and I’m kinda lost as to how much things have moved on. This helps a lot.
Another reason for going without the amps is that it really helps control the stage volume. Volume wars on stage are a nightmare.
Really there’s no volume control on a amp simulator? As long as there are guitar players, there will be volume wars.

I feel likes its the 80's again......
I'm pro modeling.
So, a preamp and a power amp is called an amp head. Is he talking about a power amp Sim? If so, that is not a necessary component.
wtf then, play it dry without amp or speaker or anything?
holy shit i am fast
I do all of this and more with just a phone .......
I've bought many of these type things and they just don't cut it.
It's a shame you're such an asshole! I own a professional recording studio with a large tracking room, a locker of premium mics and an assortment of quality presentations and outboard gear. When these plugins and modelers start delivering the same results I'll start using them. As for actual professional musicians! They have learned to settle for convenience.
YOU NEED A FUCKING CAB ANYWAY WHY NOT JUST BRING A FUCKING COMBO AMP
The only problem is your guitar is going to sound as good as the house p.a. .. pass..
I don't think the pope would approve of such blasphemous Heresies.
playing without an amp is like driving an electric car or a vegan burger .
Did Dagan paint his nails noooo he's an eboy
He's difnetly not
Haha no, I painted them 😉
It sounds terrible, worse than most cheap cabs recorded on YT. Why not get a good sound?
sounds like crap so I'd say yes we still need real amps
black nail polish, come on,
?
you talk too fast.
You listen too slow.
I just can’t take a man with painted nails seriously
💅🏻
@@PMTVUK lol
To much bull crap from this guy. Just buy a modeling amp and you don't need any of this crap.
