New Salvation H-Watt clip

Mike P · Post by **Mike P** » Wed Oct 12, 2011 10:47 pm

I've linked below to my first H-Watt clip. This module is just flat-out amazing! It is unbelievably versatile and sounds just like the best HiWatt's from the 70's I've played through in the past.

Since the clip that Anthony provided initially showcased the H-Watt's cleaner voicing, I've gone the other direction: Both the Brilliant & Normal channel are maxed out here, which gives it that juicy Retro/Indie vibe, which it does to perfection.

I highly recommend this module and I'll post more clips in the future when available. Kudos and many thanks to Anthony!

Enjoy!

Great clip!

What equipment has been used? RM4 or RM100 or something else? Mic'ed or DI?

Same recording gear I always use:

Guitar>RM100>Module>Bogner Cube w/Celestion Classic Lead 80>Mojave 201 FET>Vintech 273>Apogee Rosetta 800 clocked to a DA16x>Nuendo.

Two tracks, panned right and left. No post EQ or compression.

Thanks!

Ah right, not really relevant though, since there won't be much of that circuit left.

Thus you can do it from any module.
I thought that certain modules suited better than others.

Normally that's the case, but I've just spoken with Anthony:

No xtc, no recto/treadplate, no clean modules will work as donor.

All other donor modules work:
JTM, Plexi, Tweed, Modern, Ultra, Uxl, SL+, Top Boost, KH2, KH3, Brahma, Super V etc.

Ok, thanks.

Great job.
I'm always wondering how they do their faceplates.

Nice clip! This is absolutely one of those "must own" modules. I knew it from the first time I fired it up.
