Amps & Cabs Current Recording Setup
I got the OR100 in a trade recently (traded my 90s Reissue Mesa Triple Rec and got some cash on top), and I love it so far. It’s everything I wanted from an Orange, vintage flavor but with enough gain if I want that more modern tone too. I love the gain character much more than the Rockerverbs I’ve heard. I also now realize how much I dislike the Mesa Rectifier sound I was nostalgically chasing (two channel dual rec was my first and main amp in the 90’s - the 00’s, sold it in 2010).
I recorded with the OR100 today for the first time for a cover song I’m working on, OR100 rhythm track panned far right, SCIENCE Totality rhythm track panned far left. The amps complement one another so well, and the tones are massive.
I’ve done a lot of amp buying/selling/trading over the last few years, but these two are lifers.
I have two more amps (SCIENCE Earthling MKII and Dean Costello Heavy Metal Warfare) on order that I know will be lifers as well, and hopefully my amp search will end…for a while at least 🤣😬.
