NEURAL DSP RABEA MASSAD PLUGIN TEST

hello today i'm trying out the new neural dsp archetype rabia massage plugin [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] if you have absolutely no idea who rabia masada is you should know in my opinion one of the better guitar youtubers out there why you might ask well it's because of his insane and beautiful playing uh coupled with just really good tones in general for progressive metal and you know ambience stuff like that neural dsp work together with rabia mossad to create this the new archetype plugin what could it possibly have that other neural dsp plugins haven't offered already that's what we're going to find out today i'm using this ab 1.6 hmbl going straight into my ensemble apogee interface and this is the plugin [Applause] [Music] and the default preset is juicy as hell man [Applause] all right let's take a quick peek at the plugin and if you're familiar with neurodsp plugins it looks like this basically you have the different sections and portions right here and what's cool with neural dsp releasing more and more plugins is that they incorporate more and more features into their plugins that does not exist in the first one so transpose i think i saw that the first time in the john petrucci plugin just to really just make it as available as right here baby that's perfect man if i want to tune down to c like perfect we also have the doubler that we also saw in the john petrucci plugin [Applause] just makes it a little bit more exciting other than that it looks like another you know neural dsp plug-in except that in this one they have a synth look at this [Music] how cool is that [Music] [Applause] [Music] listen huh so one of the bigger features about this plugin is obviously this incorporated guitar scent or overlord synth as they call it basically offering an analog synth that you can use in front of the amplifier section and the pedal section and combined with all these effects let's check the effects you have a dual compressor chaos bed octaver fuss overdrive and then you have you know the regular delay and reverb you have some incredible possibilities to create a really sick tone i'm gonna go through rabia's own presets and let's just check it out [Music] that is freaky [Applause] [Applause] okay what do we have engaged colossus fuss and dual compressor [Applause] that is indeed a wall of sound [Music] so as you might expect a lot of ambient tones and a lot of airy tones and i definitely don't mind tones like this really inspires me maybe not necessarily this but this is cool still oh there's a cat in there somewhere [Music] [Music] that's cool man buttery [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] i like the chug man what is this amplifier let's check it out you have three amplifiers obviously you have a clean one right here uh some kind of mid ground right here like an overall like fit everything type of amplifier and then you have a metal amplifier at last but i want to continue through the presets [Music] [Music] bull shrug fest [Applause] [Music] that's chugging cloudy lincen [Applause] that's so cool man [Music] dude that synth is so cool [Music] yeah man that's cool that gives me a lot of ideas cone destroyer [Music] [Music] ah that that is gnarly i mean what i like about rabia and his tone is that you know he's always playing around with the you know broken up type of sound where it's like it's just spanking you know he has a very spanking type of tone and [Applause] that's so funny cool [Music] oh dude that's the thing with sounds like this you can just play one note and it's cool there's some happening in the background that's cool good song [Music] [Applause] is i think everything you play sounds like arabia when you play this his playing is insanely tasteful what trip [Music] [Music] dude how awesome is [Applause] that hmm [Applause] dude [Music] [Music] oh [Music] oh that's fun [Music] you know that slightly distortion happening or it's breaking up just [Music] all right we went for rabia's presets let's let's build something check this is the mill amplifier [Music] i guess these are tight filters yes high and low pass filter [Applause] okay nothing's on at the moment it's only the amplifier and some reverb we have a 606 a neil 34 option [Applause] [Music] 44 cool let's go to the metal amplifier that also has a neo4 and 606 options tight okay okay okay that is tight okay let's check out the cabinet section real quick you have a couple different microphones all right as usual when i'm doing a plug-in demo like this i'm going to try out the amplifiers with my own impulse response because that just tells me a lot more about how the amplifiers in this you know and the overrides sound so i loaded up one of my own impulses here it is [Applause] that sounds pretty gnarly where we have a transposed uh let's go to this guitar is tuned to standard e by the way that sounds pretty good [Applause] [Music] [Applause] yeah man [Applause] [Music] all right so there you go that's my quick little demo of the new neural dspr kit type rabia massage you know what i really like about this plug-in the amplifiers and all they sound great they were probably thinking we need something more to offer here and they did the absolute right finger by adding all of these extra you know the scents and all these different petals right here to create or to be able to create a very broad and wide array of different tones in terms of ambience but also the metals still exist in there you know for me metal is very important but the ambient stuff in here that really inspires me i just love it man because it gives me a lot of ideas and isn't that what guitar playing is all about the price of this plugin lands at 139 euros which might seem hefty but consider everything you're getting in this plugin compared to back when neural dsp released their first plugin uh the nts or the meshuge amplifier you're just getting so much more now with the transpose and the doubler and in this you also get the synthesizer and all the extras i think it's a great deal and it sounds kick-ass i still think that neural dsp make the the better sounding plug-ins out there compared to rest i have no idea what they're doing but they're doing something right at least so there you go an incredible plug-in suiting for an incredible musician rabia massad there you go hope
