Description

This premium DI profile pack captures the uncompromising raw power, crushing mid-range, and lightning-fast transient response of the legendary Diezel VH4 tube amplifier. Unlike standard DI profiles trained using hardware load boxes (which rely on static reactive curves), this pack was captured using a custom-built, completely transparent DI box connected directly to the amplifier's speaker output. The signal was tapped while the Diezel VH4 was running into a real physical guitar cabinet via a thru-connection. This setup allows the amplifier's power section and transformers to interact natively with the moving mass and changing impedance of actual speakers. The result is unmatched dynamic realism, authentic power-amp sag, and an organic playing feel that hardware load boxes simply cannot replicate. To provide maximum flexibility during mixing and tracking, the pack maps out the three iconic high-gain and crunch channels of the VH4. All tone stack settings were meticulously dialed in, with only the Gain control sweeping from profile to profile. How to Use 1. Load your chosen Diezel VH4 DI model into the Amp / NAM slot inside the TONE3000 Plugin or any compatible standard NAM loader. 2. Place a Cabinet NAM profile (such as our Custom Bogner Cube DV-77 pack) or an IR loader immediately after the amp model. Set up two parallel cabinet slots to blend different microphone characters (e.g., mixing the aggressive SM57 bite with the boutique OC818 sweet spot). 3. CRITICAL PHASE NOTE: Since these cabinet profiles are captured from real multi-distance studio positions and are NOT pre-aligned, you MUST click the "Align" button inside the TONE3000 plugin interface. This will instantly phase-align both cabinet models perfectly, preventing any comb-filtering or low-end loss and unlocking a massive, unified studio tone.
