    Tube power amp for synergy syn-1

    I have a Fryette Power Station PS-2A and it's awesome. It's both a 50 watt tube power amp and a reactive load box. I highly recommend.

    Anyone heard any news on anything new coming out???

    The 6505 is freaking awesome! It might be my favorite module yet!

    SYN 50 => Little Labs Redeye 3D Phantom (DI/reamp) => UAD Apollo => Computer results in huge high pitch squeal!

    With all due respect, I have no idea what you're trying to accomplish. If you're recording Direct because you're using a DAW Amp Simulator like Guitar Rig, et al, the front input of your Apollo should suffice but if you don't like the tone, the DI might be an improvement. One solution would be...

    Smallbox module possibility?

    The Plexi can definitely pull off medium-to-high gain (although the bottom loosens up significantly when the gain knobs are dimed). It can clean up but it's not Fender Twin kind of clean, it's Marshall clean. The Metropolis is very, very clean for me but I use lower gain pickups (Lollar...

    Linking several SYN-2

    The SYN-2's were not designed to run in series, which is why the output decreases with each additional unit in the series. I have four SYN-2's and by the time I hit the 4th unit, there was barely any volume. The solution is to either use a MIDI switching system like the Voodoo Labs HEX or GCX...

    Synergy amps into audio interface for headphones

    Also, I encourage all of you guys that are interested in using IR's to demo everything out there that's available. I've found that Wall of Sound sounds very "processed" compared to other "expensive" programs and even freeware like Boogex and NadIR by STL Tones (check out Libra if you're...

    Synergy amps into audio interface for headphones

    The Synergy Direct Out has a Cab Sim that can be bypassed. Also, there is absolutely no reason to simulate a Power Amp or the room in which a cabinet is recorded, as 99% of the time, the guitar cabinets are close mic'd. Power Amp simulations are marketing nonsense. If you're really missing...

    Anyone heard any news on anything new coming out???

    Mike Nielsen posted a YouTube video on his channel yesterday demonstrating the Diezel Herbert. It sounds killer, to say the least. My apologies, I don't know how to embed in this forum. https://youtu.be/JtfsSbkuzo0

    Slash AFD Tone

    I have the Plexi and Metroplex. In my experience, the Plexi has far more gain than the Metro, which has more of a "modern" Plexi tone than the Plexi. If you're cranking up both the Bright and Normal gain and you're playing a Les Paul with high gain pickups, getting the AFD tone shouldn't be...

    What preamp tubes do you favor for replacements??

    While the ARS Chinese 12ax7's in slot V1 were definitely an upgrade for me in terms of overall tone (JJ's have a huge 250-400 Hz presence that doesn't work for my ears), I wasn't 100% happy with the tones. This past weekend, I decided to try an NOS GE 5751 I had lying around in the V1 slot of...

    Is SYN inbuilt cabsim any good?

    Here are a couple of tracks in which I used the Soldano SLO>SYN-2>Vintech x73>Celestion IR's using Recbainet 5. No EQ was added in the mixing stage, there's no power amp simulation, etc., so you're hearing the tone of the guitar, Synergy preamp and effects in the DAW. I used Soundtoys Echoboy...

    Is SYN inbuilt cabsim any good?

    I wouldn't purchase anything without first trying the built-in cabinet simulator because it may suit your needs perfectly. Personally, I do not like the Torpedo products because they alter the sound of the IR way too much, which results in a very processed sound. Recabinet 5.0 and STL Ignite's...

    Boutique Amps Distribution’s LA warehouse hit by fire

    Fortunately, no one was in the building at the time of the fire, so there are no injuries to report. The area where the office staff, photo studio and technicians worked has been completely destroyed. And while they don't know the extent of the damage, it's safe to say that everything was lost...
