Long overdue, people have been asking about the Starzinger Rhythm Guitar tone. Well here's the video...
MEGACHUGGER!
I like how the bad lander is not as big as some of the other Mesa heads. You have to move them eventually.
Nothing beats the old school Mesa Chug🇹🇲 It's just fucking wonderful!
If you are re-amping after, are you using something like a neural plug in as a reference tone when you track the original di’s? Just wondering if you ever feel conflicted after getting a killer plug in tone. Do you chase that tone on the real amp or do you start fresh on the amp eq and forget your original scratch tone?
This rhythm tone is practically perfect to me. I much much prefer the looser, almost out of control roar and fatness to it than ultra tight stuff (which has it’s place as stated). The SLO 30 demo you did sold me on that amp for the same reason; 90’s chunk all day! I’d definitely love to find a Badlander someday too, and blend them. Thanks for sharing this. Goes to show how simple rigs can sound amazing!
I loved the tone on the album. Like Ola mentioned, a lot of metal now has such a tight, choppy, clinical, almost sterile kind of guitar tone (really it's not even just guitar tone, it's modern recording and mastering in general that sounds too "prefect", and doesn't have that organic authentic feel/sound) . The tone on Starzinger really stands out in my opinion.
The tone feels like a savage, wild, untamed beast that just did coke for the first time.
Old school guitar tones with modern drum production is the sweet spot for me. I know its not cool to like modern stuff but drums are always the first things to age on an album
Yeah, it's kind of why I've gravitated towards the Marshall DSL, JVM and the Orange Rockerverb... they're much less clinical than Mesa or a 5150 (not that I hate them... not at all, I love them)
I agree, metal sounds are becoming more clinical but I also suspect that's also because a lot of metal genres are becoming more technical (and the mega low tunings) and you need the clarity to be able to hear it all.
Just my opinion :)
@@jarrusjenkins I think the original Dual Recs are a lot more versatile than people give them credit for. I love the Triaxis for the range of tones you can get and I love rack set ups. Would be nice to have a go on the JP2C after hearing Ola's.
I agree with what you say about the clarity issue. There will be another step forward in production in the near future. Watchtower were an early prog metal band and their early albums have that late 80s deathmetal sound because thats the only way they knew how to produce stuff like that at the time. Look at the jump from Mindcrime to Images and Words. New stuff will occur and everyone will copy it
ok boomer
I love how the Badlander keeps the Rectofier identity, but overall just polishes everything up and makes it a little tighter
I love the sound of the Badlander! It has the typical dry distortion of a recto but with less flubbyness and fizz. I would love to hear a comparison between a Badlander and a PRS Archon 100. They are probably some of the best metal amps that have been released in the last decade.
Isn't it funny how you can try out so many different awesome boosts and stuff, love them all, and then end up back at a TS because god damn it, the thing just sounds right :p
It's one of my faves when it comes to overdrives. It's really great.
@@OlaEnglund Did you do a vid of a Klon style OD? I may have missed it if you did. I love the EHX Soul Food as an example. It's like a less extreme TS with a focus on letting all the transients come through, and with a high shelf filter. And increasing gain acts both as a gain increase, a filter Q increase, and a dry/wet blend knob all at the same time.
I never understood the TS love. I know I am in the minority but it just sounds like ass every time I have boosted the front end of an amp with it.
TS9 and SD1 are my main OD
@@riffsnoleads not everything works with it. Not all pickups, not all amps. Also it's not always what you need tonally. I usually don't use it, but when I had to bust out a tone to cover Killswitch Engage it was absolutely the right thing.
The Badlander amps have so many great features, you can plug one directly into a computer and have many different cab sim options for many different tones, you can use it with pedals, you could switch the amount of watts you use with it, and you can use it with headphones. My favourite version of the Badlander is the Badlander 50 which I have.
The seven string with a Mesa makes me wish for a late 90s Nu Metal tone video. Korn, Deftones, you know.
Hello.
I'm here to be the asshole that tells you Deftones didn't use a 7-string until 2003 for their self-titled album.
OK have a good day.
@@CFChristian if i'm not wrong, Stephen Carpenter uses a 8 string nowadays
@@clothbooster Yes, and even a 9-string on one of the songs on their latest album.
Edit: he does play-throughs on their main channel. It's very cool if you're interested in him or the band.
@@CFChristian Im aware, but still they're a late 90s nu metal band with some sick 7 string riffs.
@@Saurion1 "Lovers" destroys them all.
Well now I have to go listen to this album again. Ola always makes Mesas sound so good
I'm just happy to see that Ola doesn't have a pair of New Balance sneakers and that tells me that all is right in the world, I'm also digging the Royal Purple curtains in the background.
Those are Nikes :)
I’m just amazed on the amount of content. The Swede doesn’t sleep.
Excellent tone. What about the bass? Complements the guitar perfectly.
Man! I recognized that David Gilmore lick the very first time I heard it! Very iconic, and I'm glad to see you getting some mileage out of it!! V⚡🇺🇸
Its crazy that with the TS. Im always coming back to this Overdrive pedal. Just feels the best for me!
Badlander is such an awesome and fitting name
Ola once again proving that nothing beats a real valve amp into an actual cab. Sounds amazing.
Just crushing! I love that amp!
I don’t know how I missed this album, it’s amazing!!!
Ola's signature move: WHEEEEEEEEA 0:10
my favorite song off the new album. No, wait, it's demonitized. No, wait, it's Sun & Moon. Shit. It's like picking a favorite kid.
Wait, I don't have any of those.
(That I know of)
I can watch this all day
Those one two chugs at the beginning sounded very Sol (redacted) Within. I love that thick 90s recto tone.
My dad used me to set up his dual Peach SP42Gs for fun with the rack mount and some other stereo equipment. But I choked up going all for the hesitation because I diddnt do the big cords plugging them in. Then I found out, I wasn't grounded..
I love how you got some of the baddest rigs behind you haha i would be content playing any of those on stage ❤❤❤
is it me, or does the headstock on the 7 string look like a murder weapon? xD Love it
I don't know exactly what kind of chunk that is but it's so magnificent I had to wipe tears man ❤️👍
Ola.. you’ve dialed in the most amazing death tone , I’m now leaning toward the same .. this sound is awesomely awesomeness ⚡️👊🏻⚡️
thanks for the consistent uploads my dude, great content
Love this tone
This also reminds me heavily of Botch's track Framce
Yes!! Love that tone! 🔥🙌🏽 also that’s my favorite song on the album “Demonetized”
That tone!
Now this is what the people need!
Sounds fucking crushing. 90's metal ftw
Great job ola you've done so much with your you tube stuff.
Chug chug chug gojira squeal. Mesa Badlander sounds insane!
One of the bests modern amp I love this badlander 🔥
James Hammett and Kirk Hetfield?
That is an amazing butal ton...love it. Can you make a QC capture of it?
So cool.
Lovely tones!
You’re my hero Ola 🤘
Love the album 👍🤘🏽
Ola, thanks for this demo. Really curious if you vary the tone any between your left and right takes, or is the exact same on both sides?
By the way, I using A1.6frc from your company in South Korea. So thx for well-made metal machine...!!!
You are awesome Ola
Your sound reminds me Dino Cazarese's one he was having during Demanufacture-Obsolete era.
them settings be insightful, for real.
Sounds amazing man
Man I love that mesa badlander amp and mesa cab ....no other sound, maybe deziel, well ok deziel is kick ass also!...
I agree about your choices but the wizard MTL2 is only amp better . If you can try one do it . It really is a piece of art
Aww yeahhhh
Omg. Tone!!!! ❤
That lead tone was just SOOO sexy
Grate.
Ola - great vid 🤘🏻
I’m curious about what it means to “re-amp” as you talked about in the beginning of the video. Can you explain that to someone who’s relatively new to recording (me)? Thanks 🙏🏻
Hey man, I have a video about reamping basics. Search for reamping Ola Englund on RUclips and you shall find!
Mesa is one of my favorite brands, besides Peavey.
Hell yeah 🤘🏻
Seems like a nice rig to test the new GGD IRs through
I tried the badlander yesterday and I thought it didn’t have enough again
Brutiful!
Me: "Oh, a new Ola Video"
Also Me: "Instant like".
I'm a simple man.
Damn man that bass sounds awesome too! Very fear factory-ish!
Hi Ola, is there a hidden war between guitar manufacturers and monitor manufacturers to see who can put the most difficult names on their products?
Ola, question for you. Do you have any plans to try and get Solar Guitars to be sold in Guitar Center? They look amazing but I'm a guitarist that just can't buy a guitar on sight. I HAVE to play it.
Wow, I just found a used black V1.6 in NY in my home town of Yonkers. Going to get it sent to my local store. It is exactly the one I want. They call that fate.
@@descent1331 any tips on shopping guitars in NY right now? I’m in Brooklyn for a few more days.
@@lordgraga no bro not in Brooklyn but... If you went to Yonkers the Guitar Center there is killer, also the Sam Ash in White Plains is killer too.
@@descent1331 thanks for the advice man!
This sounds so much better than the album, perhaps there was too much compression on the mix . Definitely.
I feel most of modern metal is compressed way more than what is needed.
I don't know if you will be able to help. I Really Love the 80s sound. Whitesnake, Cinderella, Motley Crue, White Lion, Queensryche, Metallica. I have a Boss Katana. I have a hard time finding the right Chorus, Distortion, and Delay. Can you please recommend 🙏. Thanks ! I Love your channel !!!
Nice line ☝ brother
Fuckin Joe Duplantier uses a Digitech Whammy on ONE song, and now everyone's doing the WAAAIAIIIIIEEEEE thing lmao. Real talk, that is a sick tone.
Ola Morello 😃🤘
Loved it, more of it, even for Feared :)
Mesa 🏁🏁🏁🤘🤘🤘!!
I hear way more high end fizz on this, than on the album... Probably a combination of the different mic, and lack of all the post EQ that is done on the album. Might be cool to do a guide on how to cut that fizz out when recording (its something I have problems with personally)
Leaving some in is fine so long as it doesn't wreck the tone. Can't add that sizzle in but easy enough to roll it off in mixdown.
Хороший звук 🤟
7:51 Ola getting lazy - one hand clap!
Love mesas. You want to chase tones? Mesa fo sho.
Hi Ola, love your vids on guitar tech full nerddom(ish). I've got a nice e-guitar but stuck with a Line6 pocket pod for years. Can you recommend some major headphone amps worth the buck? Years ago there was the Amplifire which got my attention, but they're hard to find. Anything similar? Thankyavherrahmuch, man
🤘🎸🤘
I really want to buy 1 of your AB1.6FRCAR but no case what the hell
Sick intro
Dude love the tone. What's the bass chain? Keep up the good work!! Thanks
Can you try the new ggd cali cabs?
Neural Capture PLEASE!!! 🙏🏼
I wish people would use the whammy pedal for more than squeals. It has so much more creative capability.
The best use of the pedal is on one of Kmac’s songs. It’s on his video talking about how 20 string guitars aren’t necessary.
🤟
I think the badlander is the best amp you showcase
Aaaaa....I like this....and what not
PHAT
I wonder how old is Ola's mesa cab
Wondering that too…. 👍
I am quite curious
Whats that riff at 5:25 I remember hearing it but i cant find it in the album.
That's Cerberus from the Master of The Universe album!
Ola. You gonna have the grill on the head of the Framus fixed?
whats song that riff start from 5:18
😇
Ola when did you start writing for Meshuggah?!?
I prefer TIGHT myself!!!
I home those mini amp guys make a mesa amp soon
When you recorded the DI were you using a Neural DSP plugin at the same time?
Yeah, the Plini. I believe that's what the lead tone on the album was too
what did you use for the leads?
is that chorus on the master bus?
I was expecting a old anime intro sound pedal review
Ok after the Fart Pedal we Have the "DiggyTech" a Two Octave Fuzz Pedal with on a Pedal the Drawing of a GuitarTech with a Shovel ...Cmon Ola take the Idea and make start The Business 😅😅.. Anyway Amazing Sound , 😎But you Just Know That.
#1
Which digitech whammy is that?
