All this talk about being able to feel the difference, sounds like we need a blindfold challenge for Pete ;)
Tube amp
Tube pre-amp
Solid state amp
Solid state pedalboard amp
Digital profiler
I just commented the same thought. I highly suspect that he won't be able to tell the difference between a Friedman IR-D and a ToneX or NDSP Quad Cortex with a profile of the exact pedal settings.
THIS!
Randall has a solid state analog rg13 pedal preamp
@@208414 That depends entirely on the guitar(s) played, the controls manipulated, and the playing techniques used. Any guitar which can combine pickups in series could give away the modelers if whomever set up the modeler did not know to accommodate that output level (and perhaps even if they did), whereas a valve preamp or valve amp would continue functioning happily. Analog, solid-state preamps and amps like the DSM Humboldt Simplifier series, the Laney IRT Foundry series, the Orange Crush series (especially the Super Crush's JFET preamp), or the Blackstar Debut would be much more interesting in such a comparison. Most modelers do not even have documented input limits.
That would make for great content, and they should do it, but it’s worth noting that people have been failing blind challenges for years now
Sounds great! Loved the tones when boosted with the Tumnus Germanium!! You did a proper demo that really showed it's capabilities.
Lovely playing from the Captain at the end ❤
Great demo! Very informative presentation. Thanks
Killer demo guys!!!!
Listening to the end of this demo and thought,
"Man Pete sounds killer"
Looked at the screen and it's Captain Crunch dropping some crunch berries!
great vid boys.
Captain sounds awesome!
Man that sounds great! A genuine Friedman tube preamp plus pro cab emulation for £500 is a steal. What a time to be a guitar player.
I love my DSM Simplifier MK 2. Basically the only real tone tool I have. Makes my cheap late 90's Crate amp sound great!
That thing changed Lee from chill blues guy to rock n roll badass!
I'd really love to hear a comparison: this vs the same amp's profile in a ToneX vs the actual amp vs the Dirty Shirley Pedal into a Fender amp.....
That sounds like a killer unit!
That’s what she said
My son has the Dirty Shirley amp and he love it . The preamp is also powerful 😁😁
Proof?
As an Andertons fan watching this while eating lunch in Atlanta ( I live in Atlanta) the Georgia Sattelites intro made me proud!!
which song was it in the intro?
Also from Alanna
Best of luck with the fight against cop city!
Proof?
@@stanknugget proof of what??
There definitely is something to pedals like this and the Blackstar stuff. Dual Drive in my case. Its like an evolution of the tube pedals of yesterday. I still have a Blue Tube somewhere.
This sounds wonderful. I'm already in the Synergy ecosystem, and I wonder if they can't release this in a form factor like the Syn-1 single module unit but with the extra IR and power amp stuff that this preamp pedal has, so we can re-use our Synergy modules. Friedman is just combining that Synergy preamp work with some digital all-in-one technology here I think.
I really enjoyed watching Pete play on this one, and appreciate his observations. 🔥🔥🔥
Nice Playing, and great tone! Wanna buy the sister to my IR-X now hehehe...
You should do a comparison or blind shootout between this and one of the DSM & Humboldt pedals, like the new Simplifier X that just came out. I have the DSM & Humboldt Silver Linings and I absolutely love it, but I also played a Friedman Twin Sister at a store not too long ago and really liked it. I'm curious if the tubes in this pedal make it feel/sound significantly better than a solid state analog pedal like DSM & Humboldt's pedals.
Lee, please do a video on how to hook up one of these from start to finish. A lot of newer players like myself tend to shy away from these type pedals or digital type rigs because of not knowing how to hook them up. No one on YT shows this, they just show you how it sounds. I would love to buy a Tone X from you but I wouldn't know the first thing about using it.
They are literally self-explanatory man- but if you really need help- they all come with step-by-step instructions on how to connect everything to play. That said- I guarantee you that you could figure it out- if you can't, probably not going to be much of a guitarist, or anything else.
@@stoneysdead689 I’ve got the guitarist part down 40+ years playing. With that being said, I’m an old school pedal board player. I’m older now so I’m not the greatest with new technology! lol
I have an audio interface that I have never used.. I guess I could always get my son to hook everything up for me! #oldfart
@@jerrycarroll9068 Haus- I'm 55 years old, been playing for 40+ years myself- and I simply bought one and looked at the jacks, the way they were labeled- and was able to connect everything on the first try without even needing instructions. You're making it far more complex than it is.
@@jerrycarroll9068 An interface can be complicated though- I can see needing help with that- but trust me these modelers are super simple.
@@stoneysdead689 Thanks for the info, maybe I will take the plunge and try one.
the official kemper slayer!
Pete you sound like the guitar on Jackson Brown "Boulevard". Love your playing ❤
Please do a comparison to the ir-x!
No way! Another drive pedal. And it sounds exactly like the 100 other ones.
That's not what this is
Pete loves the ‘d’ 😂
And advertising RAW with his shirt. Subliminal & overt at the same time.
Tone X one rules them all . . . .
He puts the d in andertons
This is some serious GAS
Pete needs to do a blindfold challenge of this pedal vs a Tone-X or similar to see if his comments about the analog feel are placebo effect or not.
Placebo or not, some people just prefer certain things from a particular source. Like sex for example. Some prefer it with males, some with females. Others don’t really care which gender it comes from. Does it FEEL the same? Maybe. But knowing what the source is can be important for some people. For others…ToneX.
@@zenlandziplinefeel is subjective in music. Back to back tests, preferably blindfolded to avoid any bias.
@@madmod “feel” is a big part of how we, as guitarists, perceive and judge our gear. And “feel” can have an impact on our playing.
To the listener, (even if the listener is a tone connoisseur of gear), the ToneX vs the real thing may not be distinguishable, sound-wise.
But to an experienced player, blindfolded back to back, they may be able to pick out which is which just by the way they “feel” different.
Unless ToneX has been able to 100% replicate the feel of a real tube amp and/or pedal.
Will this rig sound good with a fuzz face running into the front of it. Every one of these types of devices sound pretty good until you decide to go Jimi mode. Please demo with a fuzz face in front of it. Loved the germanium tumnus in front!
Love my IR-D so much , that I bought the Little Sister head. UA modelers for sale :)
nice, what is the overdrive pedal at the end ?
So can I connect it to my Victory V4 Duchess power amp to use to switch from V4 clean to IR-D driven?
What monitors are you using? I heard Genelec but which? I am trying to get a good experience with not using a cabinet but all FRFR solutions I have heard, kind of sound like the sound is in a box and far away, kind of smaller, hard to describe... Even with 10 inch FRFR or 10 inch tops + 12 inch subs DSP managed. I don't understand it, because clearly a PA can playback a recording of a real amp and it does sound like the real amp recorded. But when you play guitar (NOT playback a recorded guitar) through such a PA or FRFR speaker it doesn't feel right when there is now also a real cabinet involved. Somehting is off, but what is it? What I don't understand is, why does a FRFR system or PA speaker with the same physical volume, same speaker size at the same dB level still not feel and sound like a miced cabinet? Am I doing something wrong?
So, if I understand you can have effects in the loop on one channel and none on the other channel if you want?
Sounds like the best Marshall you could get. Might seem expensive for a pedal, but a JTM45 reissue will cost you well over a grand, and look very silly unless you don't also place atop a sizable cab.
Fantastic demo boys!! What Genelecs are you using in the studio?
Thank you. They are 8040s
@@andertons Thank you for the information!
I'm gonna buy one. This is the closest I've heard to a real vintage Marshall out of an affordable direct device.
Oooh Oooh Tamoooh!
What is the intro song played by Pete ?
So much new gear, so little money I have 🤷🏽♂️🤔😆 this does sound great. I like this much more than the sounds from the IRx version.
I so wanna hear this with a strat and tele!
Hi. great video!
I want to buy a marshall jtm sound and the marshall st20h seems to sound great
Which sounds better,
friedman ir D or marshall jtm studio st20head?
Which Friedman Ir do you like better, Friedman Ir X or Friedman Ir D?
To use it alone or as a platform for pedals,
which one is better of the 2 Friedman go?
Thank you very much!! Greetings!

get the jtm 20 if you want a small amp or the ir d both will need pedals. the st20h is not that great. the best options are an actual jtm 45 or a dirty shirley/twin sister.
@@yaniv-nos-tubes Thanks! Regards!
Raw
Hmm- the IR-x is more my cup of tea in that you can get the higher gain, more modern tones- that said, this one just sounds better man. Idk if they are kind of learning the tech and did a better job or what but- this one has more character, more clarity, more warmth... The IR X at times is a bit harsh, really noisy if you're trying to get those more modern, higher gain tones I was talking about- and the output levels are weird man. On the Plexi channel- ch 1- if you don't boost it, it's really quiet. Plus- they made a mistake by not making the thump parameter accessible from the pedal without need of software because I like changing it on the fly- especially when going from single coils to HBs. To do that though- without using MIDI- you have to connect it to your PC. This one they made sound better- imo, but you still have to connect it to a pc to change the thump parameter- should be blue tooth accessible. If I could do it from my phone with no physical connection- that would work.
Friedman IR-D VS Simplfier X?
I’d love for Dave to do one of these based on the AC30.
Wouldn't be surprised if he's planning to do just that. Thought I heard a while back that he's doing an AC30-style amp, soon, anyway. So it would make sense.
@@dannbrauckmann1545 oh man I hope so.
Definitely sounds better to my ears than the ir-x but theres two design feature details I don't understand purely from a live performance perspective. Why aren't the channel led's above their footswitch and why does the structure switch have the lowest setting in the centre. Seems odd. Am I missing something.?
This is 1:1 exact same preamp as the twin sister, so the structure switch behave the same: ruclips.net/video/uPGJNY-K2WY/видео.htmlsi=NnyomuzdAyokigYQ&t=783
Georgia Satellites ❤ There‘s younger people than me who remember this great band 🙏
I apologize but what does something like this get plugged into? Frfr’s front of an amp? Studio monitors??
All of the above, maily FRFR, Studio Monitor, FOH, PA using the BALANCED OUT, while at the same time having the send to a poweramp with a guitar cabinet for monitoring in bigger venue as needed
I have a catalyst 60. Can i send it to that? Will it sound as it should?
@@Puddelito Sure, on the back there is a RETURN jack, that is where you should connect it. You should try to use both SEND and BALANCED OUT (with IR BYPASSED) from IR-D and stick with the one you like the most. In a tube amp you would use SEND and in a FRFR and studio monitor you would use Balanced Out with IR.
Outwardly, you seemed right at home, for the most part. Your playing was never in question, and I was surprised how confident you were.
This one is even better than the IR-X.
When a shop struggles to not annoy the majority of its digital processing suppliers. 😂😂
Where would i put this on my pedal board and could this hook up to a boss katana mkii 100?
Dont do thar
Why it won’t work with the katana? I have artist and I was guessing if this will bring some more versatility or new better sound
Still looking for a stereo option
Why ?
Get two
@@davidramos4317 Multiple amp IRs
@@Michael.debruynyou should take a look at the Milkman The Amp stereo and the DSM&Humboldt Simplifier X
Put a stereo Reverb pedal in the effects loop and you are Stereo.
Excuse my ignorance.
How does a 12V power supply run two 12AX7s at high voltage?
You can use 12AX7s with 12V, it will definitely sound different than running them at higher plate voltage. Check out the Shaka Tube, or the Chandler Tube Driver, in these the distortion is created by a solid state and the 12AX7 adds the starved plate sound.
Step up transformer increases the voltage to a much higher level.
With an internal transformer. Don't poke your fingers in there, there's a lot more than 12v internally.
DC - DC converter - which is as simple as a dedicated chip and a few external components.
Ugh yet another amp sim that I would love to buy...except WHY did they not put XLR OUTPUTS!
You can easily connect a cable with a TRS on one end and an XLR on the other one. It seems that the output is balanced so a simple cable will do for you.
How do these differ from the victory v4 amps?
they're better
The Victory V4 Pre-amps, obviously do not include a power-amp nor any poweramp emulation or IR's
The Victory V4 Amps do come with a poweramp which can drive a cabinet and they also have Two Notes embedded poweramp and speaker emulation.
Oh, come on Synergy just give us the Soldano/ENGL/Bogner etc. type units we want, lol.
Can we have a shoutout to Lee for remembering to ask us to like and subscribe :D
Lets get to that 1m !
What’s the point with the tonex one just come out 😂
Mr Pete killing it with a Les Paul? Who woulda thunk! 😅
Awesome intro. 0:05
Just about anyone who can actually play guitar.
I hope Friedman does a Small Box version of this thing.
IR-X is the smallbox
@@politoleo I was under the impression that the IR-X was the Browneye.
@@OgamiItto70 Smallbox have Plexi channel and BE channel, similar to BE100 deluxe that have more tone switches as well
@@OgamiItto70 nope. its the rusty trombone.
@@politoleo Thanks, I was unaware of that. Brown Eyes and Small Boxes had always sounded different to me; maybe due to cabs or power section saturation or whatever. I perceived Small Boxes to be voiced differently, more upper mid-focused and slightly lower distortion and Brown Eyes to be higher distortion and darker.
I have owned 4 Friedman pedals and sold every one. They lack something I just cant put my finger on.
I don’t understand the difference between this and what came out like 6 months ago
the ir x has more gain on tap and based on the be 100 ,like a higher gain modded jcm 800 .the ir d is based on the dirty shirley less gain more like a jtm 45.
Did you forget channel 2?
They said, they are both voiced the same...
GOOD: tasty tones, quite versatile
BAD: £500
Not too bad for basically a 4 channel tube preamp with MIDI and IR loader, I think...
me want
Jesus Another #Friedman IR-??? When will the pedal madness end?
#Friedman IR-Dave
#Friedman IR-#DirtyShirley
You can't operate a valve at 9 volts....these are ???
There is a circuit inside that stepup the voltage to 280V
I wanna start an AI company and name it "Skynet!!"
£500 😂😂
... was going to get an IR-X, but too much $$$ for 'Made in China' product.
You lost me at midi😂
auto cab/ir switching im guessing
This is not worth $400. I would buy one of those 22 watt Bugera amps, if I was going to spend that kind of bread on something.
So we’re all still falling for the “it has a tube in it so it’s good” gimmick, yeah?
obviously!
Well, all you need our ears and that's how it goes. Tubes are better even still. No competition
No, this is a real tube preamp. No gimmick, these tubes are running at 300 plus volts. Only the back end is digital.
I don’t even care what it is, as long as it sounds good. This sounds pretty damn good!!!
Definitely would breathe new life into a solid state practice amp🙂↕️🙂↕️🙂↕️
Tubes break and blow easily and at the most inconvenient, inopportune time. Like working then not right before the concert starts 😮!!!👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
I have changed one pre amp tube in the last five years. I’ve got many tube amps and never had any in the shop. Three SS amps went to the tech in that period.
Have you ever used a tube amp 🤣
i am 57 now and made my living playing for 2 decades. i have never ''blown'' a tube. just the fact that you said 'concert' tells me all i need to know.
Pre amp tubes don't usually "blow." They can actually last years no problem. You're more likely to have a short in a patch cable or a broken string.
they usually last more than 2000 hours in optimal state , ive worked on live gigs with vintage tubes on 3 amps in the last ten years with no problems. i have a tube tester so i can tell when they are weak. transistors and modelers are way more consistent and reliable................but they sound like shit.
