Legato rang. Wants their licks back!
Hey guys, just got some OH V30 IR’s. What is the optimal sample rate, ms and other settings to use when uploading to torpedo remote? Also, how do I bypass the existing IR’s so I can just hear the one I’ve uploaded? Thanks!
Seems like such a misstep to not have a dedicated clean channel on this amp.
Mine’s arriving tomorrow ????????
Haven’t got a cab for the time being so hoping studio monitors still give me the thwack-in-the-face I’m looking for from the Kraken.
How can I use the cab sim from the v4 amp live with a 12” cab?
what would the connections need to be if i wanted to use a v4 power amp with an extra v4 preamp and a pedal switcher such as the efx mkvi AND also have the ability to connect extra pedals (such as overdrives, wah etc before the preamp but controlled by the switcher) and a strymon timeline and an h90 on the effect loop (perhaps even 1 algorithm of the h90 on the preamp and 1 on the effects loop)
Nick – killer video and my V4 Kraken just arrived today and I'm blown away with the tone and options!!
question 1: can u use it in a 4 cable method with a loop switcher such as the boss es8 (in my case musicom efx mkvi) and a lot of pedals such as overdrives, timeline, wah, eventide h90 etc ?
question 2: can u change the v4 amp channel with the loop switcher through the footswitch insert ?
question 3: can u add an extra channel as u showcase here with the v4 preamp but instead of that go cheaper with a v1 preamp pedal ?
question 4: can u go direct to console mixer (with cab sim on) and simultaneously go to a real guitar cabinet also (without a cab sim) and hear both of those outputs at the same time ?
the idea is to use the loop switcher (efx mkvi musicom) on a pretty big pedalboard with the v4 amp, wah, overdrives, delay, eventide h90, and even more pedals, and be able to control everything with the switcher. so u just carry that big pedalboard and a guitar to a gig, and hook up directly to the console, or even better to a real guitar cabinet (if there is one available at the venue) at the same time.
right now i have connected all of the pedals on the loop switcher in a 4 cable method (so i can adjust the order of each pedal… before or after the preamp) and i have 3 cables to hook up to my amp (guitar in, effects send, effects return) the 4rth cable goes to the in of the pedalboard (therefore the 4 cable method). so can the v4 amp act like that and replace the need to carry my amp and cab everywhere ?
The headphone out is really not good! But it is a great amp
Can I hook this up to a 70watt 16ohm cabinet?
I'm sold on the pedal. I just want to know the name of that gorgeous PRS strat at the beginning of the video.
Hey Victory Amps, can you clarify whether you need an instrument or speaker cable to connect the v4 kraken to a cab? The manual for the vx specifically says speaker cable only, but there's nothing I can find in the v4 manual about this. Cheers!
Hi,, just fro the sake of clarity: is the Kraken unable to produce a prstine clean tone with no break-up, just pure clean toone?
Oh, if I try that 4cable method with copper pre, and playing clean tone of copper, could I be using cab sim of kraken v4 at that moment?
Well done dude. Really helpful
Finally!!
The first video that really answer all the question how to connect this pedalamp.
Thank you thank you!
Love mine, now after the copper
This guy does the best guitar videos. What a player he is. Very cool amps V.
After watching multiple videos on this amp I thought I really wanted one. Now after seeing this video I have to have one and will get it ASAP! Thanks for breaking everything down about it. I'm 100% sold.
Great video! I was wondering if it’s possible to integrate the kraken amp pedal and copper pre amp pedal into a boss gx 100 to make use of the effects in the unit? The boss effects are great and having all three units working together would be sick. If anyone could help with the signal chain that would be appreciated! Cheers 🙂
This is a video I’ve been waiting several months for, THANK YOU!
Hello just a question…can you plug this in to a 1×12 cab with a 60 watt v30? Or it can only go with a 2×12?
Thank You for being almost the only people to show us beginners how to hook up to the various other gear such as your computer Thank You!!
Bluguitar amp 1. That is all
Can youz play da blues with it
I still miss a small 3 channel amp in your line-up
Sounds killer, can you get a tone like Shawn lane
a more affordable solution for me is to use the V4 pre pedals with an external poweramp or even the fx return of any amp head.you can also buy 2 preamps for that price like the copper and the jack or kraken and put them in series for a 4 channel clean to high gain preamp setup! cheers .????
