Dr. Z X-Ray captures

Not sure if you’re supposed to post captures or links to your profile, if not please feel free to delete this post.

I’ve got several captures of my Dr. Z X-Ray, most are DI (without a speaker), but a couple have a Fane A30 speaker.

I’m using a TwoNotes Captor X. The first several, oldest, ones don’t have a “load”, or speaker connected. After doing some research, they say that messes with the impedance and to get a good capture, you should leave the speaker connected to the Captor. The latest (3) that I’ve uploaded, have a speaker load connected to the Captor, which I think actually helps a little with the feel and the rolling back of the volume. They are a little lower in volume, but sound fuller IMO and work better with dirt pedals.

Sort by date, or time added, to find the newest ones.

There are 3 of them:
1 with no EQ
1 with a slightly boosted low end
1 with a pretty hefty low end that sounds great with bright guitars

If you aren’t familiar with the X-Ray, it’s a modern take on the AC30 and one of the absolute best clean amps I’ve ever played (I still have the actual amp as well). Sounds great paired with an Alnico IR (Blue, Gold, Cream, Fane, ect…), but also V30, Greenback or even a Creamback IR sounds good with this amp.

The ‘Dr. Z X Ray II cleaner fuller’ capture is the one to beat IMO. Nice job! You know, I’ve never tried an X-Ray, but I used to have a Carmen Ghia back when I thought combo amps were the be-all-end-all. It was a fantastic amp with a clean sound that I think was unmatched, but this sounds great in its own right. Thanks for sharing :slight_smile:

Cool sounds! Even beter than the AC30 captures that I’m using right now…

I tried them with the Amalgam free IR’s (VX TB 2x12 GOLD ALNICO MIX)

Thanks for sharing!
