Capturing Alexi Laiho’s Guitar Tone – Marshall DSL20H & Torpedo Captor X
Always loved Alexi’s playing and riffs, really difficult fingering and complex to play. I’ve been a fan for many years and he’s death is a tragedy. I really am sorry to hear and my best regards to his closest and loved ones.
The recordings were captured using Two Notes Torpedo Captor X, a really cool piece of gear that allows you to record and enjoy your tube amplifier without bothering anyone. It simulates a mic’d cabinet with power soak attenuation so there’s no need to run a cabinet while playing.

My favourite being the Marshall V30 close mic cab

On rig rundown Alexi said he had a Chorus pedal on all time.
Early COB was the Lee JacksonPC preamp into a VHT Poweramp.
I think you might understand. You were saying snare and kick. Trying the get more high end in The low if thats makes sense.tjhat dynamic growl that's huge w lamb of god. Like a metallic resonance. I wish I could explain it better
Ill tell em mate.!!!!!???? Your a trip. I needed that.
Your videos are awesome. Ears dont lie. I like the honesty. If you get the result thats what matters. Not brand name and i sooooo appreciate that
Which song was that ending riff from?
Holy shit man, you nailed it. Captured the tone very well. Good job.
He used always bass almost on full. Lol. He used chorus effect to push midds out more. You can look it up now.
You really nailed the tone. I would add a bit more bass like the one you can hear in the song Follow The Reaper.
You’re missing the EMG MM-04 preamp booster installed in the guitar. Alexi had his amp’s gain way down and used the booster in his guitar to get an aggressive sound.
Oh it's painted already…. Blood red would be an excellent choice I'd say., thinking of it.
Hey, mate. Sure I'm late, but… Go pearl aged white, like JH', FFK explorer. Should do fine there. Cheers
Could you let me know the order of the pedals you have set up there please. As im in the process of replicating it and id like to know the exact order of the pedals 🙂 thank you
Hey Sir! Do you mind doing one on Dino Cazares guitar tone?
Awesome job nailing his tone and great playing. Only one other thing Alexi said in a video interview with his rig rundown. He showed the boss super chorus and said its always on.
Damn you nailed the tone and really played the parts well!
Hi mate thanks so much for this video, really helped me to craft a better sound for playing COB songs. But I’m still new to some of this tech…how do you hook the Captor X into your PC please to record please? I can’t crank my amp as much as I’d like because of the neighbours
Excellent job once again bro! Your demo's really have shown me how much you can manipulate an amp to get so many different killer tones. I wish I had this knowledge back in the 90's when I was in bands! I've been trying to decide on my next amp and I'm leaning towards that Marshall. My only concern is if it would keep up with a band?
Great playing too! Thank you.
one of my favorite tones ever
What tuning are you using? Sounds great!!
Grazie per insegnarci cose riguardo ad Alexi. Il tuo setup mi è stato molto di aiuto. Mi ricordo che un mio collega di lavoro, bravo chitarrista, mi parlava sempre dei COB. Quando davvero capii quanto erano bravi, è successa la disgrazia.
The alx pickups and boost really help
If you can find them
Really well done, watching your other tone chasing series and enjoying myself. Love your bird.
Awesome video man
What's the first song?
What pedals?
Amazing. It would be awesome to have an IR of this 😀
sounds great! really close, alexi would be proud RIP legend
Cool male Eclectus parrot man! Killer too btw, you nailed it to the "T"!!!!
Yeah, but can you replicate the awesome tone that the Nick Jonas used back in 2016?
Top that one mate.
I've rewatched this video many a times. Good stuff man. Appreciate the share!
what a speaker cabine from Marshall ? nice Video.
Is the noise suppressor before or after overdrive?
Feedback – the good kind… like when you're holding a note and then somehow you get those overtones (?) that blend in and make in sing and sustain (sorry, I don't really know what's happening technically). I thought this occurs when the sound from an actual speaker then hits the pickups and multiple sounds are then "feeding back" in a loop.
So, can we actually get this when using Captor X with cab sims and listening only via Headphones?? thx
I bought the captor x so I could (ever) play my silver jubilee. It's great, it's fun, but I feel like I'm missing something of the raw-ness that comes from using with a cab.
I didnt expect everytime i die for the song u first show. Its my fav song by em and its underrated
I'd love hear you try and capture Michael Amotts tone of Arch Enemy, has you've nailed the bodom tone perfectly. Specifically his and Bill Steer in The Carcass Heartwork album.
