Amp Blend Profiles

Hi everyone,

I recently picked up an Orange OR15, which joins my Kemper Stage and my VX Kraken. After some days of recording with my band, I have been messing around with amp blending and decided to try my hand at making a profile this way. The final result came pretty close to the original tone, so I wanted to share it around and see what people think.

The blend is my VX Kraken on Gain 2 with the OR15's gain set around 1 o'clock. Both amps ran into the same 412 IR with a single SM7B. I added a post-signal high and low pass at 100Hz and 12500Hz, plus a -2.5dB notch at 250Hz and 4000Hz, to help tame the signal. The rigs available on the Rig Exchange are the same profile, just tweaked to two different guitars I own, which have very different pickup characteristics. Each rig name corresponds to a different guitar: SG being my 1972 Ibanex SG lawsuit with Greco Screamin' 82 pickups (dark guitar, brighter profile), and Bea being my Chapman ML3 Bea with a Bare Knuckle Juggernaut.

Your can find the rigs under:

Let me know what you think.

DonPetersen haha, good catch on the typo, or else you have an impressive ear.

deadman42 my SG is really dark, and I did find the Bea version a bit bright with the Juggernauts as well. I will keep experimenting with different guitars. I am sure other cool sound are there somewhere.

Thanks Awesome_Elvis
