what's up I'm all of this sweet and
welcome to Ola testing the of
the day is the new Fortin NTS plugin
from neural DSP
[Music]
for the past weeks a lot of people have
been asking me Ola when are you when are
you demoing the affording MTS plugin Ola
or give it to Allah or go to Ola
dude it it's here okay take it a little
bit easy I'm doing the demo right now
okay and you're watching it so a couple
of months back
Fortin and knurl released their nameless
plugin and for me that was probably the
game changer when it comes to emulating
a really good male tone in a plug-in
format today I'm trying out the mts
which is based on the Fortin natos
amplifier and back in 2010 I tried this
amplifier and I have video for it and it
was a life-changing experience kind of
this is how I came in contact with Mike
in the first place and from further
conversations with him we started
working together on my own amplifier and
after a bit of tweaks and redesigning we
ended up with my Satan amplifier so this
Nate oz is the ground assign that later
became Satan and if you didn't get that
already nato's is Satan backwards nato's
is just a name for the people who don't
dare to name things Satan you know it's
like the upside-down cross except it's
it's upside up yes for this video I'm
using this solar s 1.6 into my Apogee
ensemble interface into Logic Pro X
where I have the mts plug-in loaded but
I guess at some point you will be able
to use the NTS plug-in as a standalone
app just like you now can with the
nameless plugin and as I look upon this
beauty of an interface right here it
looks exactly like the nameless plug-in
note that just bare-bones
and simple design so here's the
amplifier face with familiar dials and
knobs you have the gurf grind game these
are the controls to shape the distortion
of the amplifier and then you have the
rest here you have a kill switch
it's two shells clean and Distortion
depth presents master volume and so on
now if we go check out what's before the
amplifier we have an additional couple
of pedals compared to the nameless
plug-in first of all we have the Sewell
noise gate pedal and we have a hex
driver which is more like a classic
overdrive and then we have the grind
which is more like a boosted prefilter
cabinet section looks about the same as
the nameless with the same microphone
options and I mean you can load in your
own impulse responses and so on and a
nice little feature I found out right
now when I was playing around with this
is that the controls on the amp here are
still adjustable even though you're in
the cab section just a nice little touch
real like alright so let's try it out
[Music]
okay grind game students
[Music]
nice then you have the kill switch and
the kill switch basically adds an extra
gain stage so
it's calling me whoa phone salesman in
the middle of my video
it's nice
that's the dryness I love that
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
yes making riffs making riffs that suck
so when I use an overdrive with the
Satan or the Nate toss I would chill all
but with the the gurf and the grind
knobs the gurf is the low-end part of
the distortion and the grind is like the
high end part what's good about this is
that you can set your own type of
distortion for your extended range
guitar or if you're down to you and or
whatever tuning you're in it's a lot
easier to kinda you know set a perfect
distortion for you and your tuning so
what I do want to use an overdrive is
that I usually set the grind pretty low
and the Garf pretty high and it will
sound something like this without the
pedal engaged
[Music]
basically making it sound a little bit
more dull in that sense so you can push
it with an overdrive we're a pre-filter
nice okay
[Music]
and back off the game a little bit
yes
[Music]
okay let's try to eat overdrive here
it's more of a classic Oh Drive
so you could get more of that you know
saturated classic Mel tone
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
very very very nice okay let's try out
the cabinet section for a bit
[Music]
[Applause]
this one microphone
[Music]
what I really like about both these
plugins the name was in this one is that
the cabinet section and cabinets impulse
responses sound really good out of the
box
that's dirty I like that
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
all right let me try out my uh
okay dropsy everybody
[Music]
nice
yes please so as you can see I've
already made a bunch of presets here and
I'll share them somewhere or maybe just
maybe knurl will include them in the
final revision of this plugin so you
don't have to download them we'll just
have to see that's not my decision it's
yeah that's just a bonus
[Applause]
[Music]
sounds killer
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
obviously we have a clean channel so we
have to clean the tip of your penis
every day preset for you
not sure if mural is going to accept
that name we just have to see
[Music]
another thing with foreign amplifiers is
that you know even though the distortion
are so epic and brutal the amplifier
still have like a really really awesome
clean sound going so
[Music]
yeah Wow oh my god some coffee on
that please
again another excellent plugin from
neural important and I can say this even
though the range of the gurf and the
grind is different and you know the NTS
is missing the sweep knob and a bunch of
other inner components and whatnot this
is as close as you can get to Satan in
plug-in form well done for more info
check out neural DSP comm it's like a
100 bucks or something like that well
worth it guys thank you so much for
watching
a lot testing this is definitely
not please like and subscribe and
see you in the next video
[Music]
you
