WELCOME TO ANOTHER WILL IT CHUG! Check out Robins channel here ruclips.net/user/ReXIX2
Ola Englund OLA YOU RULE!! YOU SHOULD GET VOGG FROM
\DECAPITATED/!! 😈🔥..ON THE SHOW!! VOGG AND YOU HAVE THE BEST GUITAR RIFFS AND SOUND AND TONE TODAYS TIME!!!!👹🔥
Those are little bad ass amps. Especially with an OD
Agreed, but from which album?
Try a Rivera Clubster Royale Rec! I'd love to see if it chugs. Plus it's an all American hand made amp for $1500 with a lot of options for recording.
Ok, Batman.
New series: Get a random Discord member, pass him a guitar and see if he chugs.
Big fan of this idea
YES!! This!!
YESSSSSS
Possibly a Solar E1.7FBB
haha awesome!
I think Paying Friend said it all: "Oah!"
Paying Friend is the ultimate sidekick.
megahurtz30 “Aaa”
Bro loved your covers
@@bearded_riffs Hey! Thanks!! :)
@@megahurtz30 I didn't know you work with Jeff! Subbed, awesome channel \m/
"not a huge orange fan"
every orange review: I THINK IT SOUNDS SUPER AWESOME
With an EQ in the loop and an Overdirve in the front it actually has a really good tone for metal. Especially for it being a lunchbox amp. My opinion anyway.
Agreed, EQ in the loop really makes it come alive, especially at high gain, but it's great for clean tone sculpting too.
Exactly, pair mine with an OCD and it's the best bang for the buck Amp imo
@@NubsWithGuns Most guitarists have little to no knowledge about electronics. If you put the exact same circuitry in this "lunchbox amp" into a full sized head, people wouldn't know the difference, but they would evaluate it as more professional because bigger = better.
@@arifmemovic3383 Bigger = Tubes and transformers. And more of them.
@@NubsWithGuns You didn't use tubes when you learnt 'electronics'?
Not an Orange fan, but always impressed... something doesn't add up here.
I guess you're a closet fan?
I see what you mean but I think he means he has a disposition towards not liking Orange amps
Probably just means he'd rather play on something better but is still impressed by them. They're ok imo but the gain had a little noise associated w/ it. I guess you'll have that but w/ these theres no fx loop in the back so even a noise gate doesn't help. They do have a nice thick tone but you'd be better off going w/ one of their other ones that has the fx loop in the back. JMO
@@JRRoss-vx1ni the micro dark actually has a loop. Personally I play a Rockerverb.
@@JRRoss-vx1ni i own one, it definitely has an fx loop hahaha
I just got this amp on monday. It's fucking fantastic especially with a Tubescreamer in front
BrainBomb _1 I use to have one of these, and I still miss it sometimes. It is an absolute monster!
Still my go-to high gain amp
I've got an Orange Micro Terror and it's incredible. It won't chug by itself, but the clean and rock tones are so good.
BrainBomb _1 +1 on the Tubescreamer. I put a Maxon OD808 in front of mine and it made a world of difference
I miss my 6505 mh.it was a beast.but I'd really like to try this it sounded amazing.also wanna experiment the difference in a 1x12 compared to 4x12.i have Randall rg1003h and it's very versatile.
It chugged and you didn't even wait for the tube to heat up.
It's a pretty good endorsement when Ola chugs on it longer than other products. I'm intrigued.
I love how big this small amp sounds; I also like that I can totally get away with plugging it into a big speaker cab. It does look a little weird on a big cab tho, so I plan to buy an empty big Orange amp head with dummy controls on the front and hide the micro dark inside lol.
bahahahaha!!!
This is such a silly idea…can I steal it please? Hahaha
Thats hysterical
Before watching the video I have to say: "Yes it will chug" :D
Orange amps are awesome. I have a tiny terror head that I use for my Stoner band and it sounds killer with an overdrive pedal ! I'm always impressed of the versatility (and the loudness!) of these tiny amps...
Those Tiny Terrors are incredible. My friend has one and hooked it up with a TS808. Gorgeous tone
I have this amp and putting an eq pedal on the effects loop makes it a beast
Jose D plan to do that with my dark terror!
Cotton217 you won’t be disappointed
amazing combination!
Just ordered one and have a bad monkey,metal core, and muff fuzz pedal. Should I still get an equalizer pedal and any other pedal suggestions to add?and what kind of equalizer u use?
3:15 when you found the sweet spot!
Edited: Thanks for da likes!
Paying friend seems like a great guy. I’d pay him in beer to watch hockey with me.
Offer still stands bro!
thinkingjack go capitals !
When do you start the beer version of this?
Beer plus + Hot Chili + Surströmming challenge.
@@kutnersuicide *shudders*
"Will it burp?"
@@kutnersuicide more like when will i puke challenge
"alright we got this ten year old kid. WILL IT CHUG!?
It actually sounds fucking great with the overdrive to tighten it up, impressed!
Just wait until you hear it person 😉
Same. OD and a bit of gate to get it a little more chunky and this could be pretty awesome.
This is my main amp. Did a tube swap, run some OD in the front with effects in the loop. It's a killer amp, Can keep up with loud drummer, have played hundreds of gigs with this guy. Highly recommend to metal and non metal heads alike.
Rockabilly?
What size cabinets? Do you run it into a pa?
@@jeremyt4292 60 Watt 2x10 oversized cab from Panama (kind of rare). And I used a H&K Red box between the amp and cab that fed into front of house (now a Friedman mic-no-mo). The cab sim on the amp isn’t great. Works in a pinch if you need it but it’s not ideal.
Beartooth get their guitar tones from the Micro Dark, so yes they definitely chug.
Benji PC hell yeah
If Orange is good enough for Jim Root, it's good enough for me. I love my Dark Terror Head; especially for baritone leads. It has an intangibly ominous filthyiness, particularly with the Ghoul Screamer/Darkblood pedals in front.
@@lostalone9320 Slipknot also has some really fucky tuning, that may be a part of it.
Ola makes toasters chug
Always wanted to get one of these but I already have too many amps lol
So do I..buuuut I'm about to order it.
CHYEAH
bakerxdickhead nice to see you here
You are everywhere!
this wall of amps i never use needs another
4:16 it’s my favorite the haunted riff trespass love that song
God damn that tone is actually crazy good for that amp
You've made up my mind, definitely getting this amp now! Love the video by the way.
I got one. It's badass. I got the Jim root too. Badass. I got the 9v 3 watt too sounds badass through a 4x12. Orange is just badass.
@@turkeytrailhoneybeefarmgeo6292 How does it compare to Joyo Zombie?
@@turkeytrailhoneybeefarmgeo6292 yeah I tried a rockerverb at my local guitar shop and it sounded HUGE
I’ve got this amp. Don’t let the size fool you it’ll blow you away.
This amp is my main gigging rig lol. Use some overdrives in the front, delay and reverb in Effects loop. I've played large gigs with a loud drummer, it can push a 4x12 with ease. Highly recommend to metal and non metal players looking for a budget amp.
I had one of these. It’s a gateway drug to bigger Orange amps....then you never use anything but
all i heard was buy orange amps
@@andrewgarcia3136 lol same, gonna get me this amp to start
@@pararanthecaveman gonna get this and the 2x12 harley benton with vintage 30's
I have had this amp for a while now and knew the answer before he started. Best buy out there by far. I have been using it lately as a power amp with an M-Audio Black Box and 7 band EQ into the FX loop into a 1x12 cab and it is UNBELIEVABLE! Had the black box for years and wasn't crazy about it until I ran it this way. The tones I get now are out of this world.
I’m laughing so hard at the power bit! I’m not a guitarist (drummer/bassist) but I’m an avid follower of your channel. Dude your humor is amazing.
Oh and this with the overdrive is awesome!
That OD pedal tightened it up like prom night.
As someone who has used this exact amp for a long time, it does chug. Even if you slap it with a boost instead of an overdrive, it will tighten up and chug for days. That said, I mostly used mine slightly crunchy or clean 😂
The Micro Dark is amazing... When you hook it up to a 4x12, its a completely different beast... Very pleasing... Especially with a boost.. 🤘
Your hand speed has definitely gotten better!!
I think the tone with the OD is one of my fave tones you've done so far!
I waited for a long time. I wanted to watch you play orange micro dark since 3 years ago. And now I see this video.
It's a hybrid with a preamp tube. That's why it sounds good. I have one parked on my pedalboard as a backup.
I'm proud to say I have become a new member of the Solar Guitar family with a beautiful A2.6LN. Keep up the great work Ola you're amazing!
Orange amps have been one of my favorites for years. Put a RAT pedal in front of it and that Terror Dark becomes a whole beast. Still praying you do a review of the RAT2. I’d love to hear your opinion on it. Thank you for all your awesome vids Ola!! I’ve got soo many new pieces of gear on my radar now
Thanks for playing "Trespass" on this! One of my absolute "the Haunted" Favorites!
That little Orange sounds mean as hell!!! Nicely done Ola. Keep up the good work!
I have it and I love it. Bought it as a practice amp and was blown away. That tiny thing on a 12" speaker with od is unbelievable.
Yessss dude!
It's actually 20w, yes, it sounds amazing.
Ola: "I think it chugged! Did it chug?"
Robin: " *woah* "
He says ja
Yes in swedish
Ordered one 2 days ago.. I can't wait because I never could afford a tube amp, and this might be the sound I want. Love those 60's 70's sounds
i have 1 just recently purchased and it blew me away how loud it was going through a 4x12 just wow. no active pickups just good old fashioned humbeckers and wow.
I like Robin...… he seems so smoochy.... and he's obviously batman's sidekick!
I have the micro terror and it chugs, but clearly the dark chugs better, so I shall have one! These are great lunchbox amps for sure! I'd also like to try the JOYO Zombie. Great video!
Haha, I was already expecting something below 30 seconds XD These Micro Amps from Orange are so easy to set up and got great sound out of the Box :D
The sweet spot is around 1-2 o’clock on the tone dial, not too much scooped mids
That’s an incredible tone from such a small footprint. Thank you.
The Micro Dark is an amazing amplifier for its size and cost.
Its my go to practice am at home and with a Band. Yes that thing can stand up to a drummer who's not a complete animal.
I use a Metalzone without distortion purely for a solo boost to boost the highs and mids.
Got a Napalm Death vibe from it. Incredible this little thing
I love this amp. It has the best clean channel I’ve ever played. The gain section has a decent amount of range too. A Tubescreamer in front will help this amp out a ton.
It doesn't have a clean channel, wtf are you taking about?
@@eyedunno8462 When you dial the gain back to get the amp clean is what I meant. The thing sounds amazing dirty or clean.
Your paying friend is the best Independent expert i´ve seen for a long time!
This amp definately kicks ass!!! Thanks for this Demo! I´m giong to try it out with a overdrive Pedal!
I think u should try to make a fender bassbreaker chug 🤔 it could be interesting.
Otherwise ur video are really cool ! Keep doing it ! 💪🏻
The micro dark pedal - Ola 2019
Awesome! I just bought one because of this video!! Thanks
ola crowla, my fav dOOde behind those riffs. u kick so much azz just tooln around, heard peeps that have played for decades struggle to riff what u do just tooln 'round. stay awesome ola
Hurts to watch with one of these sat in my room.. unused cos it's too bloody loud for my house
thanks paying friend
Classic orange, super fuzzy midrange
Wow I am impressed to especially with that over drive that just totally added a killer spike to the sound
It'd be cool to see you try more Orange amps! Maybe the Dual Dark series?
I have this amp it’s the Biz. 20 watts tube pre amp and fx loop crank it and it gets unhinged 🤘😎
They got this thing so damn close to gig worthy. Right on the line. Plenty loud. Plenty of great tone for Chords plenty of sustain. Plenty of low end. Harmonic layers. It is all there. It loses clarity for single note/ string separation just enough to make you question if you should use it live. For metal … where clarity isn’t a huge priority … I would use it. For anything that requires clarity… it is right on the fence. Maybe an EQ pedal helps. Not sure.
You really have to put a boost/overdrive in front! It's like night and day.
Hey Ola, I'm delighted to see you having a shot of the Micro Dark, I have one myself and when its combined with a Boss Metal Zone and a 1x12 Harley Benton Vintage 30 its KILLER!!! :)
Gross
Jay Z He’s running it through the back. They sound kickass that way
Hello Ola im on vacation in sweden 2 hours from Stockholm i hope we meet keep up the chuging🙏
Im home now btw :)
You did several videos in a day haha while Robin was there, that’s awesome lol
So stoked to see this on here! Initially started going through the comments, but stopped. Lol ive had one of these for a few months. In drop c, shape at 1 o'clock gain almost all the way up and volume almost all the way up.... Effing chugs so hard!! playing a viper 1000 modded with Keith Merrow fluence. It needs more clarity for me, which the overdrive gives. The volume does so much for tone it being only 20 watts. Great for practice with my band. Ola, please bring a 6505+ on the channel and go ape shit!
Woah that Orange sounds AMAZEBALLS with an overdrive! Holy Shizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzza!
Wife: “Please stop watching porn”
Me:” But it’s a Ola video”
Wife: Exactly.....😅
lmao so accurate hahaha
I own one of those. Can confirm, it does chug!
This is the video that sold me this amplifier and I don't regret it at all !
Yaaay!!! I'm so glad you do this one! I rock this lil beast with a Marshall 2x12 and a metal muff for that 80s/90s thrash scooped sound! Very modest rig but kicks butt!
do peavey xxx next, most under rated amp
If you search online you can find some videos of him playing the 'Trip. Of course the amp sounded ultra amazing. I want 1.
try the fullbore metal of MXR c:
Orange has to be my fav amp brand.
I love my OMD!!! People always look so smug when I pull it out at jams and put it on top of a 4x12. Then I play it and they're jaws are always catching fly's. My chain is a Boss Ds-1 in front of the amp and a Dunlop 10 band EQ through the effects loop.
Can you do a will it chug for the boss katana 50?
The Katana doesn't just chug. It slams. Like the sound from that thing can be massive 🤘
"The Micro Dog Pedal"
......
I use the Micro dark and Micro terror in stereo they mix good and they chug. I love those little orange amps.
Hell yes I’m so glad you demoed this amp I’ve been wanting one for a couple months thanks Ola
Is that Sweden pedal in direct competition with The Dane?
Great video! Anyone knows where is the the riff at about 4:15 from?
Please tell!
The haunted - Tresspass
@@Gabriel.Winpenny Oh, thanks! Sick song!
Ughhh this thing got truly the great tone ! :0
I recently got a Joyo Zombie II 20w head, which is comparable to this one, but with darker American voicing. These mini heads LOVE a Tube Screamer out front, particularly with tuning down to C# or so. Chug is not the word....
Ola you Need to Play more 7 String on will it chug ;)
please please please do a will it chug with the Danelectro Honeytone mini amp
guys plz like this so that he sees it
Been waiting so long for this. Thank you kind sir.
Love that Tresspass riff you threw in there. That little Orange sounds good!
again the same "payed Friend" You might think you have one friend
I have one and absolutely love it. With a Behringer 808 copy into the front, it's under 200 bucks (not including cab) of brutal tones. Highly recommend.
I love this video because Micro Dark is the only real amp I could ever afford and it slays!!! Lol I love it
I need that pedal! Combo sounds great! Loved hearing Time Will Not Heal!
I have an Orange Micro Dark w/Micro dark practice amp and it sounds awesome with a 92 Martin herringbone with a Lawrence pick up, circa 98. It Ac/DC's like crazy
Thanks ... the best advice I got ever. Got one of these, loved it with a Les Paul Custom for fab 70/80s tones, then watched this video, added a Behringer TO800 and it's killer.
I got one of these last week. Incredible amp.
Tom Cole you can play it live too?
@@ThomasLiberoRock Yeah. Most places mic up the amps so its definitely loud enough for gigging
Tom Cole on a 4x12 or 2x12... I’m more into the 2x12
@@ThomasLiberoRock Either works fine
Just picked one up a couple weeks ago. Completely agree. One petal away from being completely badass.
I've had this thing for 4 years and absolutely love it! 🤘❤
I knew the answer as I own one. I wasn’t an Orange fan either until I got the Microdark. It is a killer amp. Now, I just have to try it out with a band and see if it can hang live.
Holy shit this thing sounds fantastic !! Especially with that overdrive in front..
Am I the only one who actually loves the cleans on this amp? It's not super loud, but for a bedroom player like me it still gets loud enough before breakup :)
