Heyy mate! I'm having a crazy noise floor (and I mean crazy high), also when I'm not playing there is an extremely loud feedback. They do mention the feedback thing, however, it's not usable at all with this level of noise (both floor noise and the feedback are almost as loud as the sound of my guitar), so I guess that it's not normal. Am I doing something wrong? Do you know something about that? From their page: "you may experience a particular type of high pitch squeal, similar to an acoustic feedback (which happens when you put your guitar or a microphone close to the loudspeaker)". There is one more thing to keep in mind, right now I'm connecting the output of the captor right into an instrument input on my audio interface (this is the only way that I can do it right now because I don't have a line in plug input in my interface, just cannon) could this be part of the problem? or shouldn't be something relevant? I guess I could buy a plug-cannon cable to solve it? since I do have a cannon line in.

This can be many things, even problems with the power or a ground loop. Do you also get that noise when the guitar is not connected?

@@lobster-music Thanks for answering :) I do get the floor noise even when the amp is turned off (or was it on stand by? I cant remember), it's a bit different and a bit lower but still super high. The feedback only happens with the volume of my guitar turned up.

@@ceniam12 whoa, standby should be pretty much the same as off. This suggests that it's a ground loop or a cable problem. Does the buzz go away when you disconnect the amp from captor? And is your amp connected to your computer in any way? Any way, did you try pressing the "gnd lft" button on the captor? This should break the ground loop, if there is one.

@@lobster-music I didn't try the gnd lft, I'll check it out! The amp is not connected to the computer and the cables are working fine. So I guess it might be an issue with my installation I will have to check :S One last thing, do you think that the load of the amp should be safe while I do the testing as long as I keep it connected to the "speaker input" in the captor? It makes me freak out a bit to hear loud floor noises and feedback while the amp is on... knowing that if there is no load the amp could burn.

Interesting video, thanks for taking the time for this. I switched from recording real amps to amp sims years ago - mostly S-Gear (sounds most natural in the mix), Amplitube (a bit in your face) and Tonex (great). However, I've now switched back to old school style recording my Katana through dynamic or ribbon mics, with condenser room mics. If I'm tracking my parts along with the other guitarist in the band then a bit of mic bleed into eachother's channels adds to the 3D feel of the sound without having to pile on loads of plugins. A sound-treated room helps a lot though!

I have a Marshall JVM Head that I like for room furniture. This is connected to a Captor etc but I just never use it. Looks good, that's about it. I have a Pod Go that I use all the time - through an FRFR speaker and that's awesome. My plugins include Amplitube 5 and Helix Native. Amplitube is I think complex to control, but in your recording sounded fantastic. I'm more familiar with the Helix Native and that sounds good, all through IR's of course. For recording I would use the plug-ins and for playing live, the Pod Go. I'll sell the JVM when I can find someone who likes Marshall furniture as much as I do! Cheers!

@@NovacomNZ yeah, that's another thing: for everyday practice, nothing beats multi effect pedals, especially if they have a drum machine built-in. I linked the full processing video in the description, I'm not speaking as slowly or coherently as here, but it has the entire process of making amplitube sound good - what usually does most of the work is overdubs, eq and reverb. But especially overdubs.

Subbed, informative and funny. Do you think this can allow me to buy an SV20h and see the police less often? No volume knob... that's a big let down but it seems a lot better than the similarly priced ones with volume control down to zero. Maybe add a master volume to the output of the captor? So I get the reactive load but fine control on volume? Maybe I should just stick with my DSL but that one also needs volume to sound nice so I think I want a loadbox either way and this solves a lot of problems. I can't record anything past 22 PM, that would solve that.
@lobster-music3 ай бұрын
Some electronics experts explained why there is no fluid volume control on less expensive loadboxes in the comments here - basically, as I understand it, a volume control (volume trim) for low power signal is 1-2 elements (potentiometer and sometimes a capacitor to compensate for eq changes), while trim volume Control for high power signals is a few orders if magnitude more complex. If you are worried about the attenuation level, captor x has two settings (-20 and -38) - maybe it's a better choice. As I get older and lazier, I start to think that maybe the onboard DSP is also a good thing - those things do NOT sound good without impulse response, and setting one up in DAW is one of those things that take only 5 minutes, but gradually start to piss you off when you do them the 50th time 😅

What an outstanding video! Thanks for the education on these two, Two Notes thing-a-ma-jigs. I was wondering what they were like and you completely steered me away from them. I'm just looking for the attenuation. Yes, amps with built in power soaks would seem the way to go. For attenuation I will look elsewhere. The Jet City Jettenuator isn't available even used and who knows if Soldano will make it again. The knock off version seems to be made by Bugera with their PS1 for only $100 which rivals the Rivera Rock Crusher at five times the price. I'm also looking at the Weber Mass Attenuator (go to their actual site and not someplace like Reverb where there's only a couple very old used models) which uses a speaker "motor" inside to mimic working with a cab.
@Jonathan_Doe_4 ай бұрын
Rheostats (what most attenuators use as a volume knob) can be a pretty unreliable, and they’re quite large. That’s why both the Two Notes Captor X, and the Fryette Power Stations avoid them (two notes by using fixed/switched attenuation steps, the power stations by just fully attenuating all the time and re amping).
