The original Randall modular MTS was a Bruce Egnater design, he had his own modular amps the M4 and he's a part of Synergy amps. I'm glad to see you demo these, I've been drooling over the Synergy stuff for over a year now.
Synergy is MTS compatible. If you have MTS modules you can use them on the Synergy chassis. You MIGHT be able to use the Synergy modules on the MTS chassis.
Conversely: You can't use dual channel modules on Randall amps (but you can on Egnater M4 amps AND you can get the Randall amps modded, not sure about the Randall RM4 preamp though)
I had a SYN2, an SLO module, and a TDLX module for a few weeks earlier this year (it was part of my phase-two testing of the guitar circuit I invented, and I returned them when testing did not turn out well). The Synergy system is great, and it works as it should (e.g. the Fender Twin channel of the TDLX has massive input headroom, as one would expect). I plan to order a SYN1 and a BMAN module in a few months.
Despite trying to make them all sound the same. Amazingly they were not far off. Synergy should have sent them to someone else. The Morgan can get the cleanest tone you have ever heard. Think David Gilmore
That Morgan module sounds killer. Absolutely slays the chime-y clean thing. That as my clean channel and the Friedman DS module as my dirt and I’ll be a happy, happy boy.
I'm more of a traditional Amp kind of guy but this is actually pretty fuckin cool. I know a lot of guitar players, myself included who always think and talk about combining the best qualities of 2 different amps they love. Mesa rectifier and Marshall JCM 800 always comes to mind
I know there's a bunch of people not liking this thing, but for me this thing IS SO FUCKING COOL. Its literally like the amp is a gaming console and the preamp is the game!!! I freaking love it!! I hope to God this company gets a bunch of preamps, because I would love this! Im constantly trading in amps for new ones and this would fix it!!
Glad to see modular preamps making a come back. The Randall MTS, as mentioned was a great idea. It came in various forms, rack mount, amp head, with swappable preamps. It's cool that they are made with the actual vendors.
I'm a user of the original MTS line and have a lynchbox with a few modules. They do sound great BUT the limitation will always be the power amp. It is better for some preamps than others. For example, the AC/Morgan stuff will sound better through EL84's and a diff power amp but hey its good enough. While many tube amps can be dialed in to sound the same, this stuff is no different. Great to have a ton of preamps but if you all make them sound the same, you probably don't need that many.
Bruce Egnater is the main designer and patent holder behind Synergy. The Randall MTS system was manufactured under that same patent even share compatibility.
You are the BEST gear reviewer ever!! Plus, you could make a Crate sound acceptable (pls don't, cuz then I'll want to buy one). This Synergy amp would be more interesting if it could combine the the preamp sounds. Otherwise I like my mess of different heads.
Designed by Egnater then Randall acquired the MTS module system. The Synergy system, was cool enough to have backwards compatibility with the previous designs.
It's important to note that Synergy also offers an all tube 100 watt power amp that is a single rack space configuration with 4 6l6's, which is incredible to me. Haven't seen any other company accomplish that, but I'm sure somebody else has done it at some point and I just don't know about it. Excellent video Ola as always, been waiting for this one. Saw the amp behind you in a few videos.
The Randall MTS system was basically the same thing...no digging around in the amp. As a matter of fact, those old modules work in the Synergy, and the Synergy modules will work in the old Randall gear, but only 1 channel. If I didn't already have a Kemper I'd pick up a Syn1, since I have 5 or 6 MTS modules laying around, but can't justify spending any more $$ based on how shitty I play and how little I play these days. The Kemper was my "once in a lifetime" purchase. Of course, I pretty much play only on one profile (though yours are pretty killer), and I could have bought that particular amp for 1/2 the price of the Kemper lol.
I wonder if OLA "the man beast" realizes he is the most famous/successful guitar play in the metal world right now. For real dude you are the real dude! We can see your dedication and hard work. Alaso that amp sounds amazing! 😭 😭 😭😭 😭
I used to own a Randall MTS 100 watt head. I loved the idea of interchangeable preamps. But Randall's preamp modules sounded like ass. You had to send them out to guys on a web forum and get them modded in order for the preamps to sound good. I was sad this idea didn't catch on but it was Randall's poor sounding modules that killed it. These preamps obviously sound way better than any of the Randall ones. I will have to look into some Synergy stuff. Thanks for the video.
I saw a similar concept in Japan. And it wasn't new, it was mid 80s equipment. There were 6 different modules, 4 pre, 2 post. I've never seen or heard of them since. They were smaller than these and sounded compressed, and tended to lose gain/ presence when pushed. Good idea, but probably under researched, at the time.
The concept of adding channels to an existing amp and not losing your fx loop is awesome. I believe in this Synergy system of manufacturers working together to develop the modules and all the parties involved getting paid for the designs of the modules. I have been waiting for this concept to develop further. I am just not interested any more in the digital amp stuff. I like digital fx like delays and reverbs. Having the ability to mix and match with hardware is my preference. Great job Ola!
Barely woke up, switched here and laughed my ass off. Made my day already. I am not even interested in modular stuff in the first place but you Mr, are a class entertainer. Thanks :)
I conceived of such a system a bit more than six years ago; I prioritized a different concept, which I later reduced to practice such that it became a true invention, the electric guitar circuit I mentioned in another comment. By the time I finished that work, an Australian guitar company had launched a crowdfunding campaign for their independently-developed and objectively-inferior means of accomplishing the same goal; that forced me to abandon my work.
check out Billy Corgan's modules, i forgot where i saw that but hes got killer modules that actually look like Marshall, Hiwatt etc. i bellieve theyre the salvation modules, made in Poland or something. with the Randall head.
I like the idea of this system and I think it sounded great - to have a small size tube pre like this for recording at home would be great. It is quite pricey though - $499 for the empty SYN-1 chassis and then $399 to purchase one module. At this price you are not too far off from purchasing an AX8, yes it's a modeller but hugely flexible. Maybe they will do some bundle deals in future that would make this more affordable.
If I'm not mistaken, the Morgan AC is based on the original Vox AC30, that's why it says AC. I love the face you do when you start chugging and the amp sound sick.
The synergy is very cool but also take the time to take a good look at the blackwidow MGP-1A, analog tube modeling guitar preamp, you’re in for a real surprise
I think these modular amps are genius. I kind of already have a setup like this using a Kemper as a pre-amp into a Marshall poweramp. I am most tempted by that SLO100 module.
I’m usually never interested in the gear, Ola makes it interesting, and I watch these demo vids of this gear I’ll never use (except the hm300 I got that one) but I still love it! It’s cool! Entertaining! I love watching Ola enjoy all this stuff he gets to try out lol 😂
I really like this idea. It’s a cool marketing concept that allows people with limited cash to get the best of amplifiers. My problem with it is I feel like it’s not where the future is going. I see the music business going into more and more digital software. It’s like every other industry; we want more and more flexibility at lower and lower cost. I own a Mesa Trirec, and I love that. But I am also considering going into IK or Bias for instance to make it easier to record. I see most people belong to either category; tube purists with lots of cash who want the genuine ”recording experience”. And then the tech genius who wants maximum bang for the buck. I don’t see myself paying 2000 usd for their amp head, when I can buy a Kemper and get more flexibility. So I predict this product will not last on the market. It is somewhat stuck in the middle and inferior to other products out there in terms of its market position.
Damn... I've been looking for the best way to get my pedalbord (with regular pedals) to FOH with a fair tone... Think I found the way... Syn 1... Not the cheapest way but it seems to be stellar... 🙏😊♥️
I have read that the older Randall modules are compatible with this new system. If that is true I'm surprised you did not mention that fact. It says it right on their website.
this is not new, randall did something like this before with the rm4, the difference is that now we have two channels per module, two gains and two knobs volume for each channel and this so good, randall moludes don't had this
I think I prefer the idea of getting one of the awesome preamp pedals available and feeding it to the FX return. That way if you want to run some modulation etc after the preamp your cables don't get such a mess!
I feel like if i want tons of different preamps, i would want to store some presets of sounds that work for me per preamp ... but maybe that's just saying I would rather go for something more software based like a kemper / axe fx or similar ...
Which at least 99,9% of the users will not know because they hear it in Terms of difference to a modeling unit - it would at best be because they can see tubes in the little replaceable units …
I have some tube heads, numerous pedals even an GK 250 ML late 80s tranisistor Stereo combo which I love and an Axe FX. I just feel: If I want tons of different Amp sounds, maybe in a cover band situation or similar, I don't think swapping around numerous modules in between Songs and dialing up the right Sound is a very good option. To Play my stuff I am good with Clean / Rhythm / Lead base tones plus maybe 2-4 effects. I can do that with all my money going to the original manufacturer and none to Synergy … But I don't want to piss on it - it does Sound great (but if Ola can't manage that, there goes his revenue …) and if I decide I have to have a couple of those sounds with feel of a classic Tube Head, this Synergy might be something to look at.
You referenced money regarding what folks may only be able to afford...The head is $1600 and each module is $400 (US dollars) lol that's expensive but it's certainly a super neat concept. I guess I'll stick to my MT-2 Metal Zone pedal for now lol
Ola is one awesome player and will make anything sound crushing. These modules have nothing on the real deal! Especially what I heard from the diezel and the Friedman no comparison to the real thing. I my own opinion of course😊
This is an absolute great idea for blending different tones without having to spend thousands of dollars.....ive always WANTED an engl fireball or a engle savage but man a 50 watt head is almost 3500 dollars lol....at least this way with synergy you can drop alot less money and still get a pretty damn good metal tone for CHUGS🤟🤟🤟😜😜😜😁😁😁😁🎸🎸🎸🎸

The best way to change your sound on the fly. Sounds great! The Soldano preamp is the one I prefer the most.
The Morgan and soldano fucking ripped. The clarity of the Morgan made my dingle tingle.

i really hope that these things eventually become as modular as modular synths, then each person's tone will be more unique than ever
Designed by Egnater then Randall acquired the MTS module system. The Synergy system, was cool enough to have backwards compatibility with the previous designs.
Damn what's the riff in the beginning, or is it your own? Sounds really cool

its like the rebirth of the old randall MTS series, preamp modules, you need poweramp and you can change whatever preamp module you want

I dunno, I wish I was in the room, to me they all sound like a budget VST, probably totally acceptable and awesome through a PA though.
I feel like if i want tons of different preamps, i would want to store some presets of sounds that work for me per preamp ... but maybe that's just saying I would rather go for something more software based like a kemper / axe fx or similar ...
But with this you get an authentic tube sound
Which at least 99,9% of the users will not know because they hear it in Terms of difference to a modeling unit - it would at best be because they can see tubes in the little replaceable units …

I just feel: If I want tons of different Amp sounds, maybe in a cover band situation or similar, I don't think swapping around numerous modules in between Songs and dialing up the right Sound is a very good option. To Play my stuff I am good with Clean / Rhythm / Lead base tones plus maybe 2-4 effects. I can do that with all my money going to the original manufacturer and none to Synergy … But I don't want to piss on it - it does Sound great (but if Ola can't manage that, there goes his revenue …) and if I decide I have to have a couple of those sounds with feel of a classic Tube Head, this Synergy might be something to look at.

You know the gear is good when Ola smiles trough the whole video like a 5 year old in Disneyland.
i'll love Marshall DSL + EVH 5150
Eric Valverde With how much this shit costs it would be cheaper to have an actual DSL and a 5150 and an a/b/y pedal....lol
you're my go-to amp guru
Awesome, Ola! Thanks for a Soldano SLO demo (even if it just a pre-amp)!!
Thank you Ola, for making me feel ok about my math skills.
dude this amp system is a GAME CHANGER!!! morgan ac, SLO, and plexi for me please, all tube, licensed preamps....holy shit man!!!
In fact, they don't build licensed modules only. The "fender" module isn't official build in cooperation with the company.
Great choices of riffs (D.N.R & Strange Deja Vu)
You referenced money regarding what folks may only be able to afford...The head is $1600 and each module is $400 (US dollars) lol that's expensive but it's certainly a super neat concept. I guess I'll stick to my MT-2 Metal Zone pedal for now lol
Ola is one awesome player and will make anything sound crushing. These modules have nothing on the real deal! Especially what I heard from the diezel and the Friedman no comparison to the real thing. I my own opinion of course😊
Bit late to the video... but looove the riff from Silencer by the haunted, awesome to hear it here 🤣
Oh man! I've 1.) been waiting for you to demo these and 2.) been waiting for that Engl pre amp to come out. Sold!
you play some sick riffs in this video, damn it!
I'd love to see a shootout between these and a kemper or axe fx
The SLO module is the clear winner.
Really diggin' the look of the Poplar Solars! Amp sounds crushing, Friedman Module sounded the best in my opinion 🤘🏻
Great personality. Prefer old school amps but preamp modules are easy to transport!
Mike Soldano's the Man, but that Engl sounded pretty good as well.
Randall had also a similar one
i hope the S1.6 LTD Blue Burst Matte will be back in stock soon.
The Friedman and Saldano chugged with the most gusto (I think) overall it all sounds fu!!! great.
Nice tone and nice riff in the beguining.
