GT2 into the REV1 Clean channel...

[Mood Bender]

I thought this would be fun...

This is a three part clip with the Sans Amps GT2 driving the Clean channel on the REV1. Actually this is a GT2 (KLEEN Channel) followed by the Rev1 (KRANK Channel) then the GT2 (KLEEN Channel) again.

This clip is a reamp using the Septic Ashes Clean Guitar tracks posted here

The Chain is
OD808
(1st & 3rd Parts) GT2 into KLEEN Channel
(2nd Part) KRANK Channel
REV 1
V30

There is a clear difference when going from Kleen to Krank (I still hate those channel names ) apart from just the tone difference. The Krank channel clearly has more response due to playing dynamics. Sans distortion is just flat-one-level type of sound. Similar tone, just the dynamics are lacking/missing. IMHO.

I should have spent a bit more time dialing the GT2, but I agree. actually I think the GT2 sounds pretty good

The Tone of the GT2 does sound good, extremely comparable, just flat response, sterile, lacking warmth. The Krank channel just seems to deliver that bit of a bark due to the playing dynamics. When I compare the sound from the same riff at 5 - 7 seconds to 7 - 9 seconds, there is clearly a real difference. It's kind of like listening to something in Mono and then flicking it to Stereo for the want of a better analogy.

Interesting test.

At first I was only going to post the GT2, but after playing with this some I decided to post both....

I had the Krank dialed much closer to the GT2 but I didn't know when to stop...

the Krank one sounds really good, I should get one of those Krank

actually the GT2 sounds pretty good...

more flat yes, but that can be a good thing on a heavy mix with kick+bass.
