Amalgam Audio TRCK OD50 2017 NAM Core DI [Synth Presets]

In the realm of tube guitar amps there is nothing more mythical than the Dumble ODS amps. The TRCK OD50 is a fantastic sounding version of this fabled amp style. This is the 50W version and it passes every discipline of amp tones with flying colors - big, bold and detailed cleans that have addictive low mids and heft behind each note attack, very musical crunch tones, drive tones that can be as compressed and smooth or as big and dynamic as you wish and gooey, syrupy lead tones like nothing else. A truly magnificent amp with a lot of options.

As the amp can be dialed in in many ways, in this set there are 3 Drive gain level sets - the first one is smooth and compressed, the second one is an inbetweener between compression and more dynamics and third one is most open, dynamic and harmonically rich. The settings for the third Drive set came out to be pretty much how Josh Smith dialed in his in the official YouTube demo, which includes an awesome jam together with Matt Schofield.

It is best paired with vintage EV12L speakers for that smooth, detailed and yet dynamic tone these amps are known for. It can handle a lot of bass that sounds good, therefore the speakers have to be up to the task too, in order for it to sound good.

The Core DI capture set consists of 20 DI captures ranging from clean to lead tones and features 4 custom IR's.

The demos are from the ToneX version - NAM version will sound very similar with a bit more detail in the high end.
