Convulsound
Published on 02/25/07 at 14:59
- 4 amp 100 watts lamp so
- Possibility to connect 4 2x8 8 or 16 ohms.
- 4 channels (clear crunch, low gain, high gain) 2 master
- A button to open Focused to accentuate the midrange
- Buttons to boost the bass on channel saturated
- Button punch that adds depth to the sound of the outline in general (also excellent)
- An effects loop (I do not use)
- Noise gate enough (very effective)
- Entry and pedal footswicht noon (Engl Z5 to buy more, which only works with the Powerball what a joke)
So I put 9 because the characteristics for an amp head compatible with a single pedal not included I think it's a bit of foutage of mouth.
UTILIZATION
- Configuration is very simple (though it must have pedals to use two masters of the head)
- The manual is very clear and personal in English There's not even need to read if you have a little logic.
- By against me it's been years that I hack the channel add dynamic effects in the loop to get the sound I'm looking for but the head is not suitable for what I want, but having said that it sounds anyway.
- But it would nice to include a knob on the pedal that activates or bypass effects loop
SOUNDS
- I mainly play extreme metal and technical, very fast with a lot of shred
- I would say it is more or less adapted to the style of music I do, I also play a little different style. But now that it's been several years since I use it I can say mostly its flaws and strengths.
- I used to repeat a lot for my recording projects or for certain groups, so I could test it several guitars: LTD Ninja 600, Gibson Les Paul, Jackson ...
- The clean channel is really a highlight of the amp is on I never saw a clean amp to have as nice and clean, I often used my head for recordings of group I did for passages in his clean compared to peavey amps, orange ... For this specific sound.
- The crunch channel is pretty good but I confess that this is not the one I most try so I let the experts répondrent for me.
- Take the distos at the very beginning that I had my amp I found the huge gain but as the years and I realized that this was the kind of gain I'm looking for it there is too much gain and it is not always easy to have a precise and clear as it tends to drool over and have his limits a little dull because the bass is not always obvious to manage the highs are extremely difficult Drilling and if they are pushed too quickly the sound gets dirty.
In short, the distortion sounds very fat, but lack of precision, I would say that in the end this amp fits well with certain style of metal (more rock metal against by not extreme) but is still done more for rock.
- The channel hi lead has the same sound with more gain, but also lacks precision.
OVERALL OPINION
- It's going to be 4 years it seems to me that I
- To date I have used different model as a Peavey 5150 II and 6505, Krankenstein Krank, Mesa Boogie Dual and Triple Rectifier, Engl Savage 120.
- The characteristic of this amp is the clean sound of distortion is cool but not accurate enough for the style I do. For the distortion and lack of precision bin I always had trouble getting a clean, accurate sound with the head either in recording or in groups.
- The value for money is still very good when you see the price of some heads.
- To this day I will not repeat that choice right now I sell my kit for ENGL send me to the mesa boogie that corresponds more to what I want.
